Episode 11- The Completion Conspiracy

from The EBD Show Hosted by Steve Corney

Your LMS has become Alcatraz and your learners are doing hard time for clicking too fast. In this episode we read along with Chapter 9 and unpack how “tracking everything” + “forcing everything” turns a course into a digital prison. Timers. Locked slides. Pop-ups that scream “NO SKIPPING.” It’s the perfect storm of EBD. Steve also shares his own epic failure where he built a course so controlled it basically needed a parole board. If your progress bar is running the show, this one will hurt… and fix you. One Big Thing: If your course feels like surveillance, no one’s learning. Two Small Things: Stop forcing, start trusting. And remove one barrier today.
