I will keep this one short and sweet.
🎸 How do you learn to play the guitar?
While you may watch a video or read a book to learn where to put your fingers to create chords, knowing how to make a C chord does not mean you know how to play the guitar. You have to do it—play the guitar—to truly learn.
🛹 How do you learn to ride a bike or perform an ollie on your new skateboard?
Again, you will probably watch a video or two to see how to pull off an ollie (the most foundational skateboard trick!). But watching someone perform an ollie does not mean you have learned to do one. You have to practice. You have to do it to learn how to do it.
❤️ How do you learn to become a better lover?
Sure, you can review the Kama Sutra, but you have to… well… you get it.
How are YOU incorporating “hands-on” experience in your Instructional Design projects, especially when it comes to eLearning, Rise courses, or videos?
My go-to approach—when it makes sense for process and software-related training—is to use scenarios and walk-throughs in quizzes to reinforce the desired actions.
