Best practices for e-learning localisation

Allison LaMotte, Articulate

 

All too often, localization is an afterthought. Course designers go about their business as usual, and at the end of the project they send their course off for translation. But successfully localizing e-learning content is about more than just translating the text. You’ve got to make sure the content resonates with people across cultures. That requires taking your international audience into account before you even start designing your course.

Over her career, Allison LaMotte has designed, developed, and managed the localization of countless courses into as many as 20 different languages.

In this webinar, she’ll walk you through:

  • the difference between translation and localization and why you should focus on localization for e-learning
  • how to plan for localization before you design your course
  • how to design courses that are easy to localise
  • tips and tricks to simplify the localization process

As a Senior Customer Engagement Manager at Articulate, Allison LaMotte creates helpful tutorials, articles, downloads, and more for French and English-speaking e-learning developers around the world. Before joining Articulate, she worked as an Instructional Designer and Project Manager at an e-learning content development company. After growing up in the US and living in France for almost 15 years, she’s both bilingual and bicultural.

Making personalized, collaborative learning a reality 
Joel Hellermark, CEO & Founder, Sana Labs 
 
Collaboration and personalisation are two trends that dominate contemporary thinking about workplace learning. 
 
Collaborative learning involves synchronous, interactive live sessions with groups of learners, and is powered by social dynamics and community. 
 
Personalization focuses on self-paced instruction that responds to the unique needs of every learner, and is powered and scaled by AI. 
 
Is it possible to combine these two? According to Joel it is. In this session, he will explore what it means to combine these two approaches in entirely new ways—using social dynamics to increase engagement while responding to each learner’s needs to improve learning outcomes. Join us to explore the exciting possibilities of personalized, collaborative learning.
