Copernican Inversion Introduces the First “Learn By Doing” Web Application Training System
New Process Allows Web Application Users to Rapidly Learn a New Web Application While Working in the Actual Web Application
Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) June 1, 2004 -– Copernican Inversion LLC today
announced the introduction of their “Learn by Doing” web application training
process. The process delivers a breakthrough on how web application users of
varying skill-sets can be quickly trained to use a web application with high
learning retention rates.
The process, which requires no code changes to
the web application to be taught, involves creating a training frame in the
browser that recognizes the content that the user is looking at and “walks” the
user through the web application step-by-step providing written and audio
instruction combined with the actual carrying out of the tasks by the user. As
the user moves from page to page in their training process, the frameset
recognizes each page and instructs the user through that page.
“The
benefits of this process for web application training are dramatic,” stated Dan
Grigsby, CEO of Copernican Inversion. “Studies show that combining audio,
visual, and tactile senses in a ‘learn by doing’ environment results in
retention rates over 90%. When compared to other web application training
techniques, such as animations or recorded web presentations which studies show
have retention levels of less than 50%, it becomes dramatically clear how our
process changes how users are trained on web applications.
The new “Learn
by Doing” process provides significant benefits which aren’t available
today:
* Web application users work in the live application at their own
pace.
* Web application users have twice the retention over recorded
training.
* There is no need to gather hundreds of employees in a conference
center or for a web presentation.
* Process can be used to train a Web App
User to work within a full web application, or specific modules can be created
which focus on certain tasks within the application.
* Training can take
place within a portable demo system created using Copernican Inversion’s patent
pending process for capturing complex web applications, thus avoiding having to
set up a demo server or spoiling live servers with training information.
* A
testing module can be added to make sure that users are fully trained prior to
being able to use the application in a live setting. This is especially
important in certifying sales reps and call center staff.
“With the
explosive growth of web based applications for daily businesses use, training
has often been overlooked” said Grigsby. “By bringing a ‘Learn by Doing’
solution to the marketplace Copernican Inversion can assist companies in
minimizing user stress and aggravation when learning how to use a recently
procured web application.”
