Enhance Efficiency with Knowledge Objects & Just-in-Time Learning

Most Learning Management Systems (LMS) mistakenly take complete courses and simply rename them as learning objects, defeating the very purpose of a learning object and obliterating their value. With Inmedius’ unique online course development tool, UKOs are highly flexible and applicable to a range of learning situations. Extremely granular or ‘right-sized’, UKOs may be reused, searched and individually compiled in response to a user’s need for specific knowledge.

With this robust Learning Content Management System (LCMS), users can publish course content in a proprietary format that supports Just-In-Time Learning or Shareable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM®) compliant courses. Cumbersome, time-intensive searches are a thing of the past. Keyword searches generate a list of the relevant UKOs so that learners acquire only essential information, when it’s needed. Pre-learning assessments help determine deficiency areas and focus materials related to those topics. There’s no need to take an entire course and waste time covering material already mastered.

The Learning Content Management System’s (LCMS) integrated course development tools extend basic content development functions, providing new levels of productivity and efficiency. Powerful object sharing, granular UKOs, and versioning tools eliminate the need to change information in multiple courses or documents. Convenient forms and templates enable non-technical users to build content with minimal training.

Learning objects include:

Shadow Objects
Ensure foreign language versions remain in synchronization with original course object by mirroring original course content and structure.
Flexible Media Objects
Engage learners with interesting supporting pictures, animations, video clips, audio clips, flash simulations and other media.
Measurement Objects
Increase freedom and creativity in designing effective measurements by utilizing a range of test formats, including: multiple choice, true/false, yes/no and short answer.

Randomized Test Question & Distracters

With this robust Learning Content Management System (LCMS) course developers can reduce guessing and cheating by generating a new test each time the learner logs on.

Tailored Learning
