e-Learning
E-Learning in Social Care has fantastic potential and SCIE
(Social Care Institute for Excellence) already have several
projects where it is being utilised for assessing mental
capacity, basic skills training for Care Managers and
Social workers and in providing information services for
young adults with learning difficulties etc.
Our modules are all specialised within Putting People First and Individual/Personalised Budget. Visit our e-learning pages for self-directed support.
We can create dynamic learning experiences that will
inspire people to keep coming back to learn more or refresh
their knowledge.
Face-to-face courses incur the overheads of room bookings,
trainer fees / organising, learning materials and can cost
hundreds of pounds for each small group.
With e-Learning and information portals an unlimited number
of visitors or staff can Log On to Learn, materials can
easily be updated and information accessed at a pace
determined by each individual learner.
e-Learning can be used for
- Following a flow chart or 'What to do next' type guides, to learn a process or system
- Refresh knowledge or retrieve 'follow up' literature from courses.
- Testing knowledge or understanding through interactive navigation, quizzes, animation etc.
- Information seeking or using frequently asked questions.
- Generating 'out of the box' creative thinking or act simply as an information portal.
- 'How to' video for demonstrating a technique or screen movies about how to use a computer programme.
by combining information and technology to aid people's learning.
It can also be simply a dynamic electronic presentation of information on a kiosk, office computer, using power point for student interaction and multi-media.
