Another field of experience of Smart Nest is development of networking and communication platforms like www.kidpreneurship.eu and Sportentre.eu
Smart Nest's key competency is in creating Interactive E-learning Course Modules using cutting-edge authoring technologies. Interactive E-learning entails a lot of visual elements, such as photographs, short videos, or various quizzes. Interactive solutions such as Click & Reveal buttons, Hotspot buttons, Interactive Videos, Quizzes, and Knowledge Tests can be included in any materials. ​
​
E-learning that is interactive Course Modules can be informal education materials that are uploaded on any freely available webpage and are designed to be mobile device responsive. Materials can also be used in formal education since modules support SCORM and, if published on a Learning Management System (LMS), teachers can obtain all of the information needed to do an evaluation. ​
Smart-Nest is leveraging its technology capabilities to explore new methods of increasing the efficiency of learning, integrating concepts such as self-directed learning and asynchronous learning into the Higher Education and School sectors. One such example is creating short 3-5 minute videos and then transforming them into interactive videos. ​
​
You can see in the example here how interactive video technology may be used to describe what a Green Deal is. A targeted extra "layer" of information that explains the significance of moving, standing, or gripping can be inserted after an interactive video has been stopped at any crucial point. Any type of content that You have previously seen in our E-learning courses may be added here, including text, images with or without hotspots, and even videos (so You will have a video included in the video). ​
