    Principles of Design for Online Learning: A Short Guide

    Created Jan. 11, 2018 by userZachary Vander Veen

    Before going to far down the road of design, consider some key cognitive rules.

    Chunk It

    Keep information organized in bite sized chunks.

    Tell Stories

    The human mind seems primed to remembering stories.

    Goldilocks Experience

    The mind like problems that are not too hard and not too easy. Problems that are "just right".
