- Tactile/kinesthetic, which encompasses doing
Of the above, reading, listening, and seeing are considered passive ways of learning, while speaking and doing are active. Most people remember what they do, but when reading, listening, or seeing, it is possible that they may have to repeat the set of steps needed.
When dealing with eLearning, the student has no physical contact with others, so he/she has to work with the materials in an active way, such as viewing audio, reading notes, and listening to podcasts. He/she also has to be an active online communicator through forums, chats, and email, among others.
Motivation is indispensable to tackle eLearning, i.e., you must be highly interested in the courses you purchase, in maintaining contact with your teacher and classmates, in completing the readings and audios, and basically, in finishing what you started while giving it your best.
In view of this, there are 4 traits that will ensure you are a successful eLearner, whether you are taking sewing classes, safety training, cooking lessons, compliance or sales training:
1. Attention
This trait has to do with creating and retaining curiosity and learner excitement. You must have a clear and strong goal that relates to the course you are taking in order to maintain a high level of attention.
2. Relevance
This characteristic allows you to connect your eLearning experience to your needs, desires, and motivations. How is this experience going to affect your life? Are you feeding your passion or is it just a requisite to keep a job? Is this course the beginning of a new life?
3. Confidence
This trait has to do with the student ascribing positive learning experiences to his/her behavior. As the saying goes: "Whether you believe you can or can’t do something, you’re right".
4. Satisfaction
This characteristic refers to the development of a desire to keep going. Once you start something, it must give you satisfaction so that you want to continue chasing other goals while getting better at whatever it is you do.
