Interview with Sharon Boller

As mentioned in ‘the facts about yourself’, “your best childhood memory is all the fun of roaming around and playing outdoors for hours.” Are there any game elements of your childhood you have incorporated in your eLearning products?

I would say that what resonates from childhood memories of play is simply the pure fun of games and the fact that we could stay immersed in them for long periods of time. For sure, I am a goal-oriented person who likes having that metric to hit so my tendency with eLearning solutions I’ve personally developed has always focused on that. I preferred thinking about activities people could do within the eLearning course and hated the text/next formats so common to early renditions of eLearning.
