Static slides can share information, but smart learning responds, adapts, and engages.

Variables are one of the most powerful (and often underused) tools available to eLearning developers. When applied strategically, they allow you to transform linear content into intelligent, responsive learning experiences that react to learner input and behavior. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to turn traditional slide-based courses into dynamic learning environments using practical, real-world variable techniques.

By the end of this session, you will be able to:

• Identify where variables create the greatest impact in your course design
• Apply practical variable use cases to real-world projects
• Personalize content and feedback based on learner input
• Design branching scenarios and adaptive learning paths
• Control navigation and unlock content using conditional logic
• Track learner choices, progress, and outcomes for deeper insight

This session is designed to help you move from building content to designing intelligent learning experiences.
