Have you ever thought content would be learners-based completely? That too learners would publish for others to learn.

Yes, all these are possible now when every service is becoming personalized to satisfy the end-users for a better experience. 

How is it possible for online learning? 


Social learning is a trending system where anyone can publish and learn concepts. 

Learning Management Systems, like Adobe Connect, are increasingly working on this concept. Here are a few reasons to justify how user-generated content is going to rule the elearning world. 


  • Help get Insights from the Learners to improve




In a learning system, be it online or traditional mode, the instructor teaches, and the students learn. 

In case of any queries, the students will ask, and the instructor will try to answer it. 

This is the learning cycle we've been familiar with for decades. To alter this entire system, user-generated content is going to focus on learners' experience entirely.

How to do it?


For instance, allow learners to ask questions in the comments of your elearning course. If anyone among the learners knows the answer, they can discuss it with fellow mates, and the healthy discussion goes on. 

You can take this one step further and gather the questions & answer and feature them at the end of the course using Adobe Connect. 

This way, learning is not the one way, and everyone can put forward their perspectives to the topic to make it more lively and insightful. 


  • Learners collaborative contribution




Collaboration is an excellent experience, especially in learning. Imagine the amount of knowledge you’ll acquire during a short period from creative minds worldwide. 

For example, you can start a video campaign using Adobe Connect for learners to share their view on a particular topic. 

Remember to make it simple yet powerful for learners to contribute their viewpoints. 


  • No need for motivation anymore!




Often, students seek the motivation to start something new, learn something new. When you involve learners in the teaching process, they don’t require motivation anymore. 

For instance, Look into a student seminar, compare it with regular classroom teaching. Where do you see more involvement?

Only in a student seminar where a learner takes that effort to consume content and deliver it gets more students involvement. 

Students would be interested to learn from their fellow mates more than the instructor. 


  • Real-life scenarios based content




When you bring a real-life incident and case studies into your course module, it spices up the entire learning process altogether. 

Even if you fail to correlate the concept practically, today’s young minds are more passionate about how it works in real life? How can they benefit from it?

This learning mindset would make them more involved in the learning process much more than ever. 

For example, Stories, Anecdotes, Failures, and their solutions inspire the learners to better engage with the concept. 

Fortunately, students convey this to other learners themselves. 


  • Learners get appreciated for their knowledge




Recognition is the ultimate boost that makes learners improve their learning. 

Whoever the learner is whatever their age or role is is innate human nature to long for their efforts' appreciation and rewards. 

In social learning, it's your responsibility to encourage and recognise the talents. How to do it?

Fortunately, Adobe Connect has an improved analytics system to track the performance of the learners. Plus, it has leadership boards, badges and points to celebrate the contribution. 

Use such tools to make them feel happier. 

The Bottomline


Social learning and user-generated content have already been engaging learners worldwide. If you’re creating a new online course, concentrate on these aspects to stand out from the crowd.
