\n024: AKA Method Acting for the Instructional Designer
\n
\n
\n
\nThis episode picks up where last episode ended: My presentation at the Learning Solutions conference.
\n
\n
\n
\nLast episode, I talked about the Bad and Incomplete Advice you've been given and some pitfalls that can cause your narration to be not so conversational sounding.
\n
\n
\n
\nThis week, we're going cerebral! Time to get in your head and figure out what you're thinking about when you're sitting down to narrate.
\n
\n
\n
\nI bet I can guess what you're thinking about:
\n
\n
\n
\n* "Time to knock out some narration before my meeting in 20 minutes!"* "I hope I don't stumble over my words! I hate starting over and having to edit!"* "I only had one [beverage of choice], I shouldn't slur my words... too much."
\n
\n
\n
\nYou could probably guess that those kinds of thoughts are not helpful when you go to narrate your eLearning course.
\n
\n
\n
\nListen to this episode to hear my thoughts on where your head should be when you go to narrate.
