The course afterword is a perfect place to give your learners some feedback or tips on what to do next based on their scores.
Provide personalized feedback based on learners' results
In the All-in-One template, add the afterword to provide two different kinds of feedback:
Feedback that will be shown if a learner scores AT or ABOVE the mastery score,
Feedback that will be shown if a learner scores BELOW the mastery score.
Why the afterword is so important for online courses
Feedback is an essential element of the learning process that allows you to guide the learner’s development and make sure they’re on the right path.
Different feedback depending on the score allows learners to assess their progress and define potential areas of self-improvement.
Tips for providing meaningful afterword
Wrap up a course, outline the key points once again
Take time to remind your learners of what they learned
Reflect and connect knowledge learned through the course
Share useful resources
Give directions for the next steps
Provide a feeling of achievement
Create smart learning paths with the afterword
Going even further, authors can add links to other courses in the afterword fields, which can be an extremely powerful tool to create smart learning paths.
Learners will be suggested to take one set of courses if they fail the course and need to do some extra study, and another set of courses if they pass the course successfully and want to continue learning. A very simple, yet flexible tool!
As you can see, adding the course afterword has many benefits to both learners and authors. Review your courses and add afterword to stay connected with your learners.
