A Coffee Chat About Producing Digital Learning Materials
Gerður Pétursdóttir, Director of Education at Isavia, is joined by guests for a coffee chat to discuss the production of digital learning materials, learning management systems, and other topics related to adult education.
Isavia is a large workplace, as operating airports and air navigation services in Iceland is a labour-intensive task. Every summer, for example, nearly four hundred summer employees start work, most of whom have not worked there before. Training is a key element of the company's operations, and everyone who starts working there must complete the appropriate training.
Ingibjörg Emilsdóttir and Elín Yngvadóttir are both experienced teachers and work as course managers at the Isavia Academy. A significant part of their work involves designing digital learning materials and putting together courses, both large and small, to be delivered to employees. This informative coffee chat discusses the pros and cons of digital material, methods and tools for creating and delivering such material.
