"Schank's success designing teaching software has made him a much sought after figure among businesses, military clients, and universities."

-The New York Times
The majority of corporate training programs are weak, ineffective, costly, and inconvenient for the time-pressed employees they are supposed to train. Designing World-Class e-Learning explores on-line learning­­--today's hottest business training topic­­--and explains the "learning-by-doing" approach that the author and his firm have used to develop effective on-line courses for Harvard Business School, IBM, GE, Columbia University, and other world-leading organizations.

Roger Schank, a leading E-learning guru and innovator, demonstrates steps and strategies proven to excite employees, make them want to learn, and decrease training costs while increasing productivity. Schank's approach to E-learning involves:




e-Learning by doing

Encouraging learners to fail--­­and learn from failure

Just-in-time storytelling from experts

Powerful emotional impact
