In this section, you will find a brief overview of the essential course components needed to develop your course for eAcademy. Detailed explanations and guides on creating these documents can be found in the subsequent sections:

  1. PowerPoint Slides

    1. Purpose: Serve as the primary visual content for the course.

    2. Content: Include key points, diagrams, images and infographics to enhance understanding and focus.

    3. Format: PPTX

  2. Textual Document with the Course Content

    1. Purpose: Contains the full course content, which will be presented/narrated alongside the corresponding PowerPoint slides. 

    2. Content: Ensure the text aligns with the slides, providing detailed explanations, context and additional information. Important: This document should not be just description of the slides. It should have its own narration, illustrated by the slides.

    3. Format: DOCX, PDF

  3. Audio Recordings of the Course (Optional)

    1. Purpose: Provide an audio version of the course content so that participants can listen to the course while following along with the corresponding slides.

    2. Content: Record an audio version of the text document for each PowerPoint slide.

    3. Tool: You can use Audacity (https://www.audacityteam.org/) or any other familiar program.

    4. Format: .mp3, .m4a...

  4. Quiz (Optional)

    1. Purpose: Assess participant's understanding and completion of the course. Questions will be placed at the end or after major sections of the course.

    2. Content: Write quiz questions along with their answers, specifying which answers are correct. Note: Multiple correct answers can be provided for each question.

    3. Format: textual document or wiki page

💡 Note: Add (or attach) all course materials you’ve created (slides, text, audio, and quiz) to a dedicated Wiki page and share them from there as needed. This ensures that the materials remain accessible and easy to update in the future if anything needs to be added, modified, or improved.

Here are questions typically asked by the course creator, along with our answers and advice.

"Sharing and Feedback"

  • Question: Where should the created files be placed for easier sharing and feedback?  ──> Answer: Place the created files on a dedicated Wiki page. ──> Take a look at the example: Introductory course to CBPs 

  • Question: How long does it take to create a course? ──> Answer: Depending on the number of people involved and the complexity of the course, it can take anywhere from one to three months. Keep in mind that throughout this process, feedback and exchange of opinions are necessary to ensure that the course creation and content development are on the right track and that any necessary adjustments are made accordingly.

  • Question: Who

    is the person responsible for collaboration on content creation in the Moodle e-Academy

    is responsible for receiving eAcademy course materials, providing consultations, and offering support during the content creation process? ──> CONTACT INFORMATION: Task 2 eAcademy team: Elisantila Gaci (egaci@rash.al) and Andjela Arsovic (andjela.arsovic@amres.ac.rs )

"Course Length"

  • Question: What is the recommended duration for the course?  ──> Answer: The course should last around 30 minutes or less. The duration may vary depending on the length of the audio recordings for each slide.

  • Question: How can I estimate the duration of my course? ──> Answer: Read through the course content at a pace that is suitable for participants to follow along.

  • Question: How many slides should I make? ──> Answer: The course should ideally cover about 20 slides. This number is generally sufficient to convey the key points without overwhelming the participants. Each slide should focus on a specific concept or topic, keeping the content concise and to the point.

titleQuiz

"Quiz (Optional)"

Here are some recommendations for creating quizz:

  • Write Relevant Questions: Create questions that directly relate to the content covered in the course. Focus on the main topics and major points of the course.  

  • Provide Clear and Concise Answers: After crafting the questions, provide clear and precise answers for each one. Multiple correct answers: For questions with more than one valid answer, make sure to clearly indicate all correct options.

  • The quizz/quizzes will be placed at the end of the entire course to assess overall understanding. Additionally, you may choose to include quizzes at the end of major sections to test comprehension of specific parts of the course.

These are some questions related to creating quizzes:

  • Question: What should the quiz be about? ──> Answer: Focus the quiz on the main topics and key concepts covered in the course. The goal is to assess participant’s understanding of the material presented.

  • Question: How many questions should the quiz include? ──> Answer: Typically, 5-10 questions are ideal, depending on the depth of the course material. 

  • Question: What are the passing criteria? ──> Answer: Set clear and achievable passing criteria. Common thresholds are 70-80% correct answers. This benchmark ensures that participants have a solid understanding of the material without requiring perfection.

  • Question: Is it necessary to pass the quiz to complete the course? ──> Answer: Decide whether passing the quiz is a requirement for course completion based on the course’s goals. If the quiz is essential for reinforcing learning and ensuring comprehension, it may be required. However, consider providing options for retaking the quiz or offering additional resources for those who need more practice.

titleReview

"Review Process"

  • During the development of course components, consult with team members or trusted individuals to ensure content quality.

  • Be open to suggestions and adjust the materials based on their feedback. Refine any minor details to ensure the course is clear and accessible to a broad audience.

"Final Submission of Course Materials"

Once you have completed preparing all course materials, submit them to a dedicated person from eAcademy for a thorough review and verification. They will ensure that everything is correctly formatted and meets the necessary standards before uploading it to the Moodle platform.

Note:

After our initial review of the course on the eAcademy platform, the content was presented as a PowerPoint presentation with audio that required manual playback. Over time, the course has evolved, and we received an improved version that plays as a video with synchronized audio. This enhanced format makes it much easier to follow and provides a more user-friendly experience

The eAcademy course will be presented in video format with synchronized audio, where the learning content is displayed through PowerPoint slides.
