Creativity within Constraints: When Cost, Resource Scarcity, or Deadlines Make Effective Elearning Seem Out of Reach

By Kevin Gumienny  |  November 2, 2018  |    |  2

Budget limits. Deadlines. Legacy tools. They don’t have to mean sacrificing creativity, engagement, or effectiveness. An interaction catalog can help you develop effective elearning under constraints. Developing Effective Custom Training While Respecting Resource Limitations Learning development is a paradox. Study after study tells us that training matters. It changes how people do things. It affects the bottom line. Once business problems are identified, training, while not the answer to every[…]

By Vivian Cullipher  |  April 4, 2018  |    |  2

Accessibility can be huge, and it can be overwhelming if you’re just starting….Where do I start? Well, the answer is you just start wherever you can. Being partially accessible is better than not being accessible at all.” – Kevin Gumienny on getting started with accessible elearning A few days after returning to Austin from the 2018 CSUN Assistive Technology Conference in San Diego, Microassist colleagues Vivian Cullipher, content specialist, and Kevin Gumienny, senior[…]

Accessibility Expertise: Determining Where It Belongs in Elearning Development

By Kevin Gumienny  |  October 30, 2017  |    |  8

Building accessible online courses requires specialized skills—but do all accessible elearning development skills reside in a single role?

How to Make Elearning Accessible: Insights from the 2017 CSUN Assistive Technology Conference

By Kevin Gumienny  |  March 20, 2017  |    |  6

A week at the CSUN Assistive Technology conference in San Diego leaves the mind reeling. So much new information! So much of it related to learning! A few presentations made this connection explicit, directly correlating learning and accessibility.
