What are the top 5 benefits of eLearning?

When we think about eLearning, we should feel FUZZY and warm inside at the prospect of increased knowledge, experience, guidance, and success. That is why these top 5 benefits spell out "fuzzy", an easy-to-remember list of benefits that should serve as motivation for engaging your ideal audience in eLearning experiences.  

1. Facilitates learning.
   • There is a reason that this is the first mentioned benefit. It is also the most important benefit. Learning is vital for continued growth and success. Providing your audience with eLearning opportunities will improve your relationship with your ideal individuals, and allow you to have a larger impact on the world while making passive income. Plus having eLearning opportunities removes the excuses of not being able to engage in the learning due to long distances, issues with COVID, complicated work schedules, etc. Bring the learning to the student.
     
     
2. Utilizes and increases self-motivation.
   • Students will acquire self-motivation strengthening when going through an eLearning experience when they are required to complete work on their own. This can be guided and controlled by the instructor requiring students to complete specific tasks before progressing or setting time limits on how long the eLearning components will be available to the student. The goal is to encourage students to put in the work, so providing students with resources, training, or set schedules are great methods for assisting students in remaining motivated to complete the learning.
     
     
3. Zip through at a flexible own pace.
   • There are a variety of different learner levels. What one student learns easily, another one may struggle to grasp. Providing students with eLearning opportunities that provide for flexible pacing will allow students to either move more quickly through the experience or to move more slowly depending on the student's needs. Students should also have the flexibility of when they access the eLearning experience, no matter where they are or what time it is. Make learning opportunities as accessible as possible. 
     
     
4. Zero in on new technological skills.
   • Since we live in a technologically advancing society, providing students with opportunities to acquire and master skills in various technological devices, software, and such will be of phenomenal future benefit. Zoom, Google Drive, Canva, and various social media platforms are examples of technological skills that can be developed with eLearning, and these examples only skim the surface of possibilities.
     
     
5. Yearning students = loyal ideal clients.
   • It is human to want to learn. As humans, we are driven by knowledge. We yearn to learn. When providing our ideal audience with learning opportunities, we are helping these yearning to learn individuals to gain a deeper understanding and insight into our expertise. This will allow them to recognize us as experts within our industry. It'll help the individual to become more comfortable with implementing their learning, and most importantly it will bring them back to learn more. 

When looking at the top 5 benefits of utilizing eLearning with your audience, you can see that promotion of knowledge will lead to acknowledgment of expertise and increased return learners. You do not have to have an eCourse to foster eLearning. You can do this in a zoom or facebook live call where you require students to answer a quiz by responding in the comments with their answers. You can also give your audience a form to fill out and submit. Look for opportunities to engage your audience in eLearning.
