Course design and planning happens in documents and spreadsheets, disconnected from intake and development.
SMEs contribute content via email, chat or project management tools, leaving designers to cut and paste information into specialized authoring tools.
Course review happens far into the development phase making rework time consuming and cumbersome.
Design and development are two entirely separate phases, lengthening the time it takes to get to a finished course.
