Learning Technology SIG: Interactive PDFs - An Underused Learning Solution

Do you need to solve a learning problem that really is too small to be solved with an e-learning and too big to be solved with a simple job aid? An interactive PDF (iPDF) may just be the answer for you!

Join Innovative Learning Group Project Manager and Instructional Designer Dawn Pierce and Programmer Walter Schirmacher as they show a variety of iPDF examples and answer your questions about how to leverage this underused learning solution.

After this session, attendees will be able to:

• Define what an iPDF is
• Determine when to use an iPDF
• Explain iPDF strengths and weaknesses
