About This Course

WGU Catalog 2026-03
Quality and Impact of Adult E-Learning Solutions is the second of two courses in the Adult Learning Designer pathway. This course introduces the issues learning experience designers often encounter when designing e-learning experiences for adults. It also directs learners to resources about current research related to issues and innovations in designing online learning experiences for adults. This course also outlines a quality framework for evaluating e-learning solutions for adults and provides opportunities for learners to apply that framework. Lastly, this course provides examples of how learning analytics can be used to determine the impact of e-learning solutions for adults. Learners will analyze dashboard data and determine the impact an e-learning solution has had on learner engagement, effort, and learning and how insights gained from data about learners and the learning experience can be used to optimize learning and the environments in which it occurs. Designing E-Learning Experiences for Adults is a prerequisite for this course.
