Land Based Learning Ltd
Interactive Learning Materials – Specification
Background
Land Based Learning Ltd would like to commission 25 interactive learning illustrations to support the
production of an initial 4 learning objects from a series of 320.
The interactive learning illustrations which will total over 2,000 on completion will be the principal
means of engaging over 30,000 land based students in online leaning.
The interactive learning illustrations will need to be provided in HTML 5 or a compatible format for
use across a range of devices, computer, tablet and mobile.
Moodle will be used as the primary host for the materials which will be developed over a 2 year
period.
The pool of learning materials once established will be continually updated providing an opportunity
to establish a long term working relationship with Land Based Learning Ltd.
Interactive Learning Illustrations
The interactive learning Illustrations will need to be innovative, visually compelling and engaging to
draw in both the learner and teacher into the use of online learning materials across the range of
land based sectors and subject areas.
The initial 25 interactive learning illustrations will cover the equine sector and the subject areas of
the horse, skeleton, joints, circulation and respiration.
Each interactive illustration will need to be matched to the corresponding text and provide the
appropriate visual cue, animation, to assist the learner to understand and embed the knowledge
contained in the material they are working through.
Requirements and Further Information
Companies interested in becoming involved in the development of the initial 25 interactive learning
illustrations are asked to provide an example of their work together with costings.
The quote will need to contain, information on the illustrations to be provided, details on price,
timescale for delivery with references.
Suggestions for the Illustrations required are detailed on the following page.
