How we helped Esade transform its online course creation process

Esade is an internationally recognized academic institution, named by the Financial Times as one of the top 5 business schools in the world for Executive Education. Through technology, entrepreneurship and sustainability programs, their commitment to providing a quality learning experience has made them a benchmark for talent, innovation and excellence in the education sector.   

In its constant search for pedagogical innovation, Esade was faced with the challenge of developing new online materials to promote a more innovative and engaging learning experience.

To do this, they needed e-learning tools that would help them establish a blended production model, based on a combination of their in-house content creation capabilities and support from external teams.

Adapt​​ to the​ needs of the era digital with high-level e-learning content

​Due to the ongoing​​​ impact of technology on education, ESADE needed to transform its pedagogical processes to adapt to a new digital context. The institution’s programs had to ​include​​​ innovative and engaging materials that would provide students with a flexible​,​​​ autonomous learning experience.

In addition, ESADE was looking for a solution that would offer ​its internal production team greater ​autonomy in content creation, allowing​ them​​​ to develop materials independently. A​nother essential feature for the company ​​​​​​ was access to​ specialized external support, which would ​help them to ​guarantee the highest pedagogical and visual quality for its courses.

“Education is being impacted by technological changes and learning habits. We needed to create tailor-made online content that would provide a unique and transformative experience.”

Gloria Batllori Lloveras, Professor in the Department of Economics, Finance and Accounting at ESADE.

Agile and personalized

e-learning content

production 

Thanks to isEazy, ESADE has adopted a hybrid model that combines internal content production with the support of external experts in the development of e-learning content. With isEazy Author, ESADE staff can now create their own courses quickly and easily, without the need for advanced technical knowledge.

In turn, ​thanks to​​​ isEazy Factory, the institution has the​​ support of ​external ​specialists who guarantee the pedagogical and visual quality of​ each​​​ course​​, adjusting them to the specific needs of ​individual​​​ program​s​. In this way, ESADE balances internal efficiency with external expertise, ​to ensure all-round​​​ educational excellence.

With the ​help​​​ of isEazy Factory, ESADE has been able to produce content with a ​consistently ​high level of pedagogy, design and usability. ​Meanwhile, ​isEazy Factory’s ability to create and adapt materials allows the institution to maintain quality ​throughout​​​ all its online courses.
“The know-how and experience of isEazy Factory help us to create content with an extraordinary pedagogical and visual level, which we can edit and update internally to adapt it to each context.” 
Manuela Calatayud Barbera, Head of the Learning Factory at CETL (Teaching and Learning Centre) at ESADE.

 

 

 

isEazy Author allowed ESADE to customize and adapt their content to the specific needs of each program or discipline. This proved to be an attractive solution for both teachers and students, as it made possible the creation of consistently interactive and visually appealing content. For teachers, the platform offers high flexibility and ease of use, allowing them to create and customize courses without requiring advanced technical knowledge. For students, the interactivity and dynamic design of the courses engaged them more deeply with the learning experience, making concepts easier to understand and increasing class participation.
“Having tools like isEazy’s allows us to enjoy greater capacity, flexibility and autonomy in the production of our content. In addition, the design and learning experiences that we have been able to generate have transformed them into great allies for our day-to-day work.”
Elisabet Giner Salvador, Head of Instructional Design at CETL at ESADE.
