Interactive training videos are a form of media that eLearning can borrow from marketing. Interactive videos gained popularity in sales and marketing when Flash was a popular multimedia software platform to create digital media solutions. 

In this blog, we will explore how interactive videos can make your training more engaging.

What Is Interactive Training Video?
An Interactive training video is a multimedia recording that can support user interactions. Users can interact with the content, navigate the storyline, reveal their choices, etc. 

Interactive Training Video Vs. Linear Video
Linear video is the traditional form and most of us are familiar with it. The user can select play, pause, rewind, and fast forward the content in this type of video. On the other hand, an interactive training video allows the user to click, drag, scroll, swipe, and hover over the content revealing more details with each interaction. 

Functionalities Of Interactive Videos 
The most commonly used functionalities in interactive videos are:

Branching: It allows user control and personalizes the learning by allowing different paths and skipping irrelevant content. 
Click and reveal: It refers to clickable content which reveals more details as the learner progresses.
Hotspots: These are clickable areas within a video, which reveal a separate web page or content within the video. 
360-degree view: It allows the learners to get a 360-degree view of the object on the screen.
Forms: You can insert forms within the video, which allow the collection of user data.
Quizzes: Quizzes can be built into the video to deliver assessments and personalized results to the learner.  
These interactivities make viewing the videos an engaging experience. However, a great interactive video must be designed with the end-user in mind, and interactivity should be used only to enhance the user experience

Last Mile Learning is a key initiative of LINGOs (Learning in NGOs), a not-for-profit NGO. LINGOs' vision is for anyone working to reduce poverty and alleviate suffering in the developing world to have access to world-class learning opportunities at little or no cost. about LingosThe "last mile" concept originated in the telecommunications/cable industry. The "last mile" is the final leg of delivering connectivity from a communications provider to a customer. This last mile is a logistical challenge because mapping the final destination wires and cables to remote rural areas without an existing structure of connectivity is physically rigorous. The "last mile" idea also applies to serving areas in need of humanitarian relief. Aid supplies are sometimes able to reach a central transport hub in an affected area but need the additional planning and networking to get resources transferred to those pockets of need without waste, loss, or misdirection. With LINGOs' Last Mile Learning, educational resources reach those critically in need, capitalizing on existing intellectual capital, goodwill and efficiencies of scale.
