Let’s face it: A lot of eLearning programs are just plain ugly. From the email invitations marketing, graphics and tweets, to the blog posts, presentations, handouts, and more, most learning experiences are built without focusing enough attention on the value visuals play in creating quality digital learning experiences.
In this session you will discover how to beautify all aspects of your digital learning, including your emails, presentations, handouts, social media posts, and more. You will learn tips that you can easily put to use, even if you are not a professional marketer or graphic designer. You will explore best practices in marketing, advertising, and graphic design. You will examine how to apply these practices to the world of digital learning.
In this session, you will learn:

- The value of beautiful handouts
- How to grab people’s attention and hold on to it
