CASE #458 — MOTIVATION: DEAD ON ARRIVAL
TRUE CRIME: LEARNING EDITION
CASE #458 — MOTIVATION: DEAD ON ARRIVAL
The learner logs in.
The module loads.
The lights dim.
And the LMS whispers…
“Click Next to Continue.”
Somewhere between Slide 6 and a 12-minute video, motivation flatlines.
We call it what it is: Digital Waterboarding — and yes, it’s killing your learners.
The worst part?
It was mandatory.
Symptoms include:
Compliance-induced amnesia
Click-fatigue paralysis
Thousand-yard stare by Slide 3
Sudden urge to mute and multitask
The scene is chilling:
Training completed.
Nothing retained.
Another soul lost to the LMS void.
But don’t worry —
Edufic enters the scene with a body bag for bad content… and a pulse for your learners.
We don’t waterboard learners. We engage them.
We don’t haunt them with horror slides. We build learning that sticks.
We don’t do “click-to-death.” We craft moments that move minds.
Because let’s be real —
Training shouldn’t feel like surviving a crime docuseries.
It should feel like a plot twist worth remembering.
Need an intervention?
Media that earns attention
Games that teach, not torture
AI that knows the difference between “engaged” and “endured”
Let’s revive motivation — before the LMS claims another victim.
