Third Term Learning Crafts Award-Winning E-Learning With Storyline 360

The Challenge

Third Term Learning prioritizes custom, collaborative course solutions

• Third Term Learning has always prioritized the need to meet the diverse course needs and requirements of their client base. To do so, they require solutions that allow them to create engaging, appealing lessons for learners and integrate soft skills and technical proficiency assessments into courses.
• They needed ways to develop custom gamified courses so users can practice their skills in real time. They also needed to create engaging, dynamic courses that would allow learners to practice their product knowledge and incorporate multiple skills into a single e-learning module.
• Collaboration and cohesion are high on their priority list: Third Term Learning requires the ability to coordinate an interdisciplinary team using various multimedia tools to create a single course.

The Answer

With Articulate 360, Third Term Learning brings their engaging courses to life

Third Term Learning offers numerous off-the-shelf courses on soft skills, safety, and information technology, among others. These broadly appealing courses come in multiple languages for Third Term’s international client base. But Third Term’s showstoppers are bespoke solutions, like their award-winning course “A Trip of Unfortunate Events,” which won the Best of DemoFest Award at the 2022 DevLearn conference. 

Third Term Learning uses a multi-stage design process to create custom, engaging, and effective e-learning. Each project starts with brainstorming sessions to conceive ideas, identify needed resources, and assign an interdisciplinary team. Scripting and graphics phases follow. In stage three, the course creators construct lessons using rich multimedia, various software, and design tools.

The final step of the process leverages Articulate 360. The development team uses Storyline 360 for bespoke, LMS-friendly features like the gamified branching scenario in A Trip of Unfortunate Events Game. Methods like games allow learners to make decisions that impact outcomes throughout the module and make learning “stickier.” At the end of the development process, Third Term Learning shares the project in Review 360 to gather client feedback and improvement suggestions and tailor the final product to the client’s needs.
