Designing a course at Udemy was interesting. After a teacher
creates a course and uploads the videos and course materials, the course is
reviewed before it is published. The review is thorough: video and audio
quality, curriculum, approach. The reviewers’ comments included recommendations
to improve the product.
Learning to Draw
Between the Lines: Creating the videos was fun for about five minutes.
Getting a professional product takes a little longer. I struggled with the
sound: you have seen my posts here. Again and again the reviewers flagged the audio
and made suggestions for improving the narration. It was frustrating to revise
the work, but I couldn’t really get maaaad if all of these changes should make
the product better…. 0_0
Mastering the Objectives…Finally: Udemy uses digital badges to recognize major
achievements and milestones. Badges are emailed when teachers finish various steps
in the course design process.
I received several Badges for creating the Microsoft Excel
2013 video Guides. This is my
first experience getting positive feedback for completing a difficult task. Usually
design and production includes cussing and crying, not colorful kudos.
This new approach is good. The
Computer Mamas are going to include Badges with our courses.
