Questionmark developed Perception Office Connector in response to requests from Perception users, standard assessment and instructional design practices, and careful analysis of the latest thinking on how people learn including:
- Research1 indicating that people are able to retrieve information more effectively if they answer questions periodically before, during, and after the learning process;
- The concept that understanding the knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviors of learners enhances the development of learning events; and
- The extensive use of Microsoft office to create learning materials. According to a recent brandon-hall.com publication2, organizations use the following tools to create learning content:
- Microsoft PowerPoint (66%)
- Microsoft Word (63%)
- Macromedia Flash (47%)
- already supported by Questionmark Perception
- Microsoft FrontPage (26%)
With Microsoft Office programs playing such a significant role in the development of learning material, being able to link assessments to them makes interactive learning readily available to organizations of all types and sizes. |
