Determining performance indicators and measuring the effectiveness of a training course is essential in order to adapt its form and content to the needs of learners. Beedeez and its solution of Mobile learning is no exception to the rule. So, how do you measure the impact of Beedeez on your training, what indicators to monitor and why? The point in this article.
Step 1: Measuring Beedeez adoption
First clue to the impact of Beedeez: The number of users active or not on the application. Depending on the level of digitalization among learners, the adoption of a mobile learning solution like Beedeez is not necessarily easy.
From this measure, it is possible to understand how to overcome learners' obstacles to the use of mobile learning in order to adapt their support and help them in the process. For some users, using their phone can, for example, present a barrier to the adoption of mobile learning. This is why Beedeez offers several learning methods. With a mobile application but also a Webapp, learners can choose the format they prefer.
-> What actions should be put in place?
1 - Measure the number of users who have not completed Beedeez modules
2 - Ask “resigning” learners about the reasons for their disengagement.
Step 2: Measure interactions with content
Measuring the impact of Beedeez involves measuring learners' engagement with content. Did they finish the capsules or stop along the way? Do the results indicate that the difficulty level is too much or not enough?
Low completion rates may indicate that the capsules are not suitable, too long, or not appealing.
Once the least performing modules have been identified using a precise statistics interface, it is possible to adjust the format or approach.
Finally, watching the most successful content also allows you to know what works and why, in order to use these mechanisms in other modules. In general, in mobile learning, short content, referred to as microlearning, is the number 1 format for creating engagement. Short videos, challenges, quizzes... A mobile learning course must combine content in a rhythmic manner.
-> What actions should be put in place?
1 - Measure the completion rate of capsules
2 - Measuring the results of quizzes
3 - Identify the most popular content
Step 3: Interview learners
To measure the effectiveness of a mobile learning solution like Beedeez, we must turn to the people first concerned: the learners themselves. Did they enjoy the training? Did they encounter difficulties? Did they particularly like a module or content? If the learner is bored, this is a bad sign, as he may also have not retained the concepts he needed to learn or that he may forget them in the near future.
The more engaging the mobile learning training, the more effective it is, so the more knowledge retention will be ensured. Learners are also the first source of evaluation to adjust mobile learning training and optimize its effectiveness.
Questioning them qualitatively about their training experience with Beedeez allows them to be involved in a process of co-creation (or rather co-adaptation) of training content, in order to optimize collaboration in companies. You can also use Beedeez to retrieve these opinions using survey capsules.
-> What actions should be put in place?
1 - Create a capsule in the form of a survey so that learners can give their feedback.
2 - Encourage learners to give feedback on their experience
Step 4: Measuring Beedeez: verifying the acquisition of skills
Checking what the learners have assimilated during the training is elementary. To measure the impact of Beedeez, an evaluation of the skills and knowledge acquired validates the effectiveness of the training. via mobile learning.
In a second step, it will be necessary to validate the application of these new skills in the professional context, if this applies, however. One way to validate the acquisition of post-training skills is to conduct a comparison.
Has the learner improved on these expected points? In this context, managers can be involved with a mission to observe the employee after training. To do this, Beedeez provides managers with a feature that allows them to monitor the progress of their teams directly from the live application.
-> What actions should be put in place?
1 - Evaluate the acquisition of key knowledge and skills at the end of the training
2 - Validate the application of this new knowledge in the field
Step 5: Measure the impact of training on business strategy
Measuring the impact of a mobile learning solution such as Beedeez goes beyond the tool and its content, because its impact must also be measured in terms of return on investment for the company. Did training with Beedeez improve the performance or productivity of employees? Did it increase sales?
By comparing employee performance and company economic data before and after a mobile learning action, it is possible to determine its impact. If you want to see the concrete impact that Beedeez has had on business strategy, you can consult the L'Occitane customer case which was in particular able to considerably broaden the target of training beneficiaries thanks to Beedeez.
-> What actions should be put in place?
1 - Measure the evolution of the performance of employees who have received training with Beedeez (productivity, sales, etc.)
2 - Compare company economic data before and after mobile learning training
