Leveraging Content

Assuming most of you don't want to study eLearning principles to create a learning path, I've 'curated' the following resources below to assist!

The first resource is an article by Catcat's own Julia Huprich and Chris Baker on ways to leverage curated content. This article highlights 3 ways to leverage curated content to share your message with your learners.

This article speaks mainly to our e-learning professionals and trainers, however, it offers useful tools and tips on the 'why' and 'how' for anyone looking to curate instructional materials.


Choosing Resources

A good content curator chooses the best resources from the vast amount of information on the world wide web. But, how do you know which ones to choose?

How do you decide which order to present them in (I changed the order of these sections 3 times already!)?

How do you ensure they will receive value from the resources chosen?

Julia explains further in this quick article below 5 criteria you can use to evaluate resources like a pro.

  1.  Currency
  2. Relevance
  3. Authority
  4. Accuracy
  5. Purpose

Julia explains that content curation is about "information literacy" and how the resources you choose speak to the integrity of the learning path and your credibility as a knowledgeable curator. Curate carefully.
