Get started with eLearning in Viindoo: overview and configuration¶
In the digital age, online course management systems are becoming a new trend.
Benefits of e-learning:
Flexibility in opening classes with no limit on the number of classes, regardless of the instructor’s schedule.
Cost saving of renting a teaching location and printing textbooks. Prepared lessons can be reused many times.
Pro-active studying, no barriers to students. With just a computer or smartphone, students can study anywhere, anytime without having to directly move to a certain location.
Effective data collection and analysis based on student studying outcomes. From there, it is possible to devise strategies to improve and develop appropriate curricula and management.
With this in mind, Viindoo provides an eLearning application that helps users create online courses easily and effectively. When businesses deploy the E-Learning model, they can easily customize features, add new lectures on demand, and retrain new employees without having to pay the cost of renting a location, instructors, document printing, etc. as normally done with the traditional method.
