Our Elearning Software Development Process Explained

Our elearning software development process is simple and provides structure throughout the software development life cycle to keep developers on track and clients updated:

Project Discovery

Project managers will transform an elearning app idea into an initial project scope based on basic market research and stakeholder interviews, defining the budget, milestones, basic expectations, project goals, deliverables, and budget.

Requirements Engineering

Project managers will delve deeper into the requirements necessary to design elearning solutions that align with the project’s goals and scope using a requirements analysis for software development, user research, and other requirements-gathering techniques.

Requirements Documentation

The project manager will prioritise and define the functional and non-functional requirements before creating a software development requirements specification document (SRS) to guide the entire team with UX/UI designers.

Elearning Solutions Design

Our UX/UI design team will start prototyping elearning solutions, designing the layouts and page elements, and creating an intuitive user experience between pages for early user acceptance testing or for stakeholders to identify changes required.

Elearning Software Development

Our developers start writing the code for each element of elearning authoring tools or online learning systems, ensuring every line of code follows best practices and aligns with the goals set out by educational institutions.

Quality Assurance Testing

Our software engineers implement various software testing methodologies to ensure the code is secure and functions as intended, including implementing unit, functional, security, and quality assurance testing techniques.

Elearning software development services should integrate collaboration tools and capabilities, including discussion boards, video conferencing, and communication channels to help students and employees collaborate, solve issues as teams, and communicate with educators and trainers without hassles.

Localisation Features

Elearning development for enterprises or education facilities spread across different locations must include the implementation of localisation features, including translators, time adjustments, and course variation functions suited to different destinations where learners implement different procedures.

Authoring Toolkit

Elearning software development services offering the development and maintenance of elearning authoring tools must include an extensive toolkit that ensures authors, educators, and trainers can create elearning courses without understanding every technology or an advanced piece of code.

Customisation Capabilities

As a leading custom software development company, we believe that personalisation exceeds the expectations of users, whether trainers can personalise learning paths or students can experience personalised access to portals and training material. Elearning software must have custom options.

Multi-Device Support

An elearning software development company should provide clients with an opportunity to improve accessibility for students and employees on multiple devices. User training should be accessible from mobile devices, desktops, laptops, websites, and web portals to ensure learners never miss a beat.

Learning Content Management

The key features of effective elearning software also include content management with a content editor to create courses, a learning object repository that stores content in a centralised platform, and multi-format content support to embed multimedia like video conferencing, slideshows, and PDFs.

Elearning Services Administration

The top elearning software has services administration capabilities like an admin panel to supervise training workflows, account management tools to perform or automate user registration, and role-based access and multi-tenancy to manage how different roles can access different content.

Analytics and Reporting Tools

Elearning software development should integrate data analytics and automated reporting tools like learner data analytics to track students or employees’ performance and progress, educational analytics to target learners with custom content, and workforce analytics to monitor staff expertise.

Technical Capabilities

Elearning software should also include technical capabilities and integration like secure payment gateways for learner payments, data security protocols for backup and recovery services, and chatbots and virtual assistants for conversational interfaces that enhance positive user experiences.

Digital Learning Experience

Elearning software can also integrate gamified learning activities to promote team events and rewards, adaptive learning to personalise learning paths and content, social media functionalities to enhance collaborative learning experiences, and microlearning tools that work on multiple mobile devices.

  • Web-based elearning platforms with basic features will cost £10,000-£25,000.
  • An elearning mobile app with basic features will cost £20,000-£50,000+.
  • Content delivery, quizzes, and user management systems will cost £10,000-£30,000.

The cost of outsourcing app development ranges quite a bit, particularly when adding advanced technologies. So, how much does it cost to develop an app in the UK? It all depends on the initiatives and requirements of the educator or corporate training model.

An Agile software development process is the best option for an elearning software development company because it allows for smooth collaboration between educators, trainers, and developers throughout the software development life cycle.

The iterative approach ironically resembles what students or employees need for continuous improvement. However, our team can implement the Waterfall, DevOps, Big Bang, Lean, or Spiral model to cater to any education facility or enterprise’s internal processes and requirements.

Pulsion’s team delivers ongoing support, maintenance, and cloud hosting oversight to ensure the product we designed and understand better than any other company will continue to work seamlessly, perform as expected, and compete against leading elearning platforms.

Ensure your custom elearning solutions continue to deliver the services and online courses that the best elearning authoring tools offer. Keep courses streamlined with ongoing monitoring, support, and maintenance, or use our outsourcing software development services to maintain existing apps.

Elearning platforms are broader than imagined. Here are some examples of well-known elearning platforms used worldwide:

  • Moodle is a virtual learning environment
  • Udemy and Coursera are massive online open courses (MOOCs)
  • WebinarJam is an educational webinar
  • The Education Forum has educational discussion boards
  • YouTube channels often provide educational resources
  • Masterclass is a virtual classroom led by a live trainer

Various elearning authoring tools exist, including cloud-based, desktop, open-source, and free tools. These elearning platforms won’t provide bespoke experiences or emerging technologies but are handy for cost-effective solutions. Some of the best authoring tools already available include the following:

  • Adobe Captivate

Experienced educational authors use the tool for elearning management and content creation, but it’s an authoring tool that requires experience and technical expertise.

  • Articulate Rise 360

Design simple user training and elearning courses with the platform designed to work with Articulate 360, requiring double subscriptions.

  • Easy Generator

The elearning industry uses the platform to create simple courses and software solutions with discussion boards for corporate learning.

  • Elucidat

The authoring tool allows an employee or educator with expertise to infuse others with the right skills, enabling the simple creation of basic courses.

  • Evolve

A platform with some custom elearning capabilities where teams are willing and motivated to learn how to use the authoring tool to its fullest potential.

  • Gomo

Another authoring tool best suited to experienced users with some technical knowledge, allowing users to create simple courses without personalised learning paths.

  • iSpring Suite

A Powerpoint-based tool that allows teams, educators, and trainers to design educational content and courses using a desktop interface.

  • Lectora

The authoring tool suits expert authors capable of developing HTML5 content for management systems, elearning courses, and other educational material.

The personalisation and advanced feature integration of ready-made platforms don’t welcome the concept of engaging users better during user training. Instead, our custom software development company can design and develop elearning software solutions that fit the idea like a glove.

Scale your business with innovative digital solutions.
