I understand and that makes sense. I was always a good "studier" back in school and had like a 90+ average--though I really had little interest in anything other than basketball and clarinet. Scuba for me was a different sort of education--one where I knew understanding the stuff was important for safety.The eLearning courses are not intended for jumping around and learning ala carte. They are intended to be consumed from beginning to end, in order, and in totality. Yes, learning is best achieved when reinforced via repetition rather than covered just once. And even better when delivered so the student reads it, hears it, and sees it. The repetition in the courses is very much by design intended to deliver the best results possible.
It took a while, but I eventually noticed the pattern in which of my eLearning divers were prepared and knowledgeable, and easily passed the in store quiz, versus which divers struggle with the in store quiz and the material in general.
When a student figures out how to pencil whip the course - blowing through the videos - and ignoring the built-in remediation on incorrect answers to online quizzes and tests - focusing on minimum passing grades rather than mastery of the material - that is a student that is far more likely to be one of my problem children down the road.
So, can the e-learning student "rewind the tape" to go over something in question? Or must they re-view the whole thing? Or do they get to do the whole thing one time only? You see how much I know.....
