Why are Fox modules so effective? Because they bring e-learning to life in ways that stock photos and animated characters cannot. Fox is the only elder care e-learning company that enters the real world of elder care — nursing homes, assisted living facilities, home health agencies, etc. —to document the realities essential to effective training . Each lesson uses meaningful video vignettes of actual caregivers and patients to capture and hold the attention of your staff from the first frame to the last. That concentration is crucial because it overcomes acknowledged industry barriers to improving compliance through e-learning:
“The greatest obstacle to deploying e-learning programs is engaging learners in a way that leads to program completion.” Bersin & Associates, February 2004
What is it about real life that motivates learners to stay the course? We know from the meteoric rise of reality TV that capturing real life on camera has great entertainment value. According to social psychologists, it also holds enormous educational potential.
“Real people in real situations tend to attract and hold attention, which is vital for learning. In addition, people are more likely to beinfluenced or persuaded by those with whom they identify, and more likely to imitate those whom they perceive to be similar to themselves.” Douglas A. Bernstein, Ph.D. — Psychologist, textbook author, human learning expert; Education Advisor, School of Psychology, University of Southampton, United Kingdom
This proven model of social learning and persuasion is precisely what Fox provides to your employees as they view documentary-style video of capable caregivers working with actual patients in situations similar to their own.
