CTP Training Technology & E-Learning Flashcards

What is the primary advantage of using virtual instructor-led training (VILT) over traditional e-learning?

Answer: Real-time interaction and immediate Q&A with an instructor

VILT retains the real-time interaction of classroom training while enabling remote delivery, allowing instructors to answer questions and adapt on the fly.

When selecting an authoring tool for e-learning development, which criterion is most critical for a training team with limited coding skills?

Answer: A GUI-based interface with drag-and-drop functionality

A GUI-based authoring tool allows non-developers to build interactive e-learning without writing code, accelerating development for most training teams.

Gamification in training most directly increases which learning outcome?

Answer: Learner motivation and engagement

Gamification elements like points, badges, and leaderboards leverage intrinsic and extrinsic motivation to keep learners engaged with the content.

Which data metric from an LMS best indicates whether an e-learning course achieves its performance objective?

Answer: Post-training assessment scores

Assessment scores directly measure whether learners have acquired the knowledge or skills defined by the course's performance objectives.

What is the purpose of branching scenarios in e-learning?

Answer: To allow learners to experience consequences of decisions in a risk-free environment

Branching scenarios simulate real-world decision-making by showing learners the outcomes of their choices without real-world consequences.

Which model is most commonly used to plan and manage e-learning projects?

Answer: ADDIE Model

The ADDIE model (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate) provides a structured framework for planning, building, and evaluating instructional technology projects.
