If you have not seen it ,then here is a great Tedx talk on what to contemplate about when designing and developing an e-learning.
Some people from this age, like Walt Disney and Joseph Campbell, truly understood this. E.g. George Lucas took this principle and the result of that is that current generations now can utter more words from mind on his science fiction stories, tell us more about how that science fiction universe and its tech works than that they are able to understand, restate and abide to the basic real life needed safety principles of a company... Shouldn't this tell us designers something?

Here is one of our statements on the matter of the future of E-learning experience design:
It is all about the (digital) interfaces and content that the user needs to interact with, it be a trainee or a L&D manager.
So start building user interfaces that look and act like they are not from last century 80s / 90s, though that was an awesome time ;).
The challenge:
Take the best practices and translate them into something graphical & user interaction superior then you ever build before!
Here is some inspirational material to contemplate on.
