Structure

Our Web Based Learning Courses (WBLs, for short) have four distinct parts. The Top Bar has control and navigation tools that a student can use to control, pace and personalize the learning process. The Left Bar acts like the table of contents of a book, the Title Bar exactly tells the user the current location in the course and the Body Area contains the course content. Take a free course to get a feel for our product.

Anatomy of the Top Bar (Dashboard)
 

The Top bar is comprised of many features that enhance the learning experience. Here are a few.

1. The Auto Mode walks the user through the whole course without him or her having to click anywhere.
   
   
2. The About link explains how the WBL can be used, what its different features are and how to use them.
   
   
3. The Glossary alphabetically lists all the difficult words in the section. When you click on an alphabet, the appropriate glossary for that section starting with the selected alphabet will be shown. We also provide another powerful feature called page wise glossary. This means that every single page can have a page specific glossary. Thus, as you browse through the course, explanation of difficult terms and concepts are readily available.
   
   
4. The FAQ is a dynamic document that is a compilation of all frequently asked questions. The FAQ is organized according to the Section and the Page. Further, the page wise FAQ utility provides the student ready access to context specific questions.
   
   
5. Notes. This utility has provision for both instructor notes as well as user notes. Instructor notes for each page are added while the course is being designed. The user notes on the other hand are totally under the control of the student. The student can add, delete, modify, download and print these notes. The user can also make his/her notes available to others in the course or access shared notes from this page.
   
   
6. The Bookmark takes the user to a specific page useful in a coursework with a single click.
   
   

7. Search. Our WBL search feature is a very powerful algorithm that searches through the entire courseware. Further, the keyword search can be performed exclusively in specific sets of pages like user notes, instructor notes, coursework pages, FAQ or Glossary. A Boolean algorithm specially handles multiple word search and refined search. The results are documented in a simple list in the order of relevance.
   
   
8. The Progress feature helps the student keep track of the progress in the course such as how much time was spent in a particular page or section.
   
   
9. All our courses include a real-time Chat feature. This is a powerful tool that lets the user interact with other users in real time. Further, it gives an opportunity for an instructor to participate in the chat.
   
   
10. Using the Bulletin Board students can search, read and post messages that are threaded in the archives. This is a very useful feature especially when people from different time zones want to communicate with each other.
    

Our web based Training modules have Flash based animations to explain concepts that cannot be easily explained by still images, like a flow process or a procedure. The learning modules are fully filled with enough animations that the user will never feel a lack of engaging information. We also integrate user-interaction, simulation and other useful features into these animations.
