Theory:

What makes a digital lesson  work or successful?
* the lesson isn’t too glitzy too flashy
* students do not get lost in the glitz and bells ans whistles that they can not
    understand what they are to be learning
* consistent fonts
   What is the best size and style of fonts to use?
* interactive
* powerful content rich
* can be archived and used or modified again
 What was successful and not so successful is documented
* shareable
* reaching every learning styles of the students in the classroom if possible
* connectivity
    Links to the WEB and other resources, Video streaming.....
* Focus more on content
 -  If the lesson is created ahead of time / already prepared
 -  Then the teacher can focus more on delivering the content and interacting with
     the students
 -  Checking for understanding
* More student focused
* Adaptable to the different learning styles in the classroom

* Immediate feedback is provided using multiple forms of media
* Lessons are designed where the student is the one who needs to interact with the material, not the teacher
* Multiple types of media are used to present the information
