Table 1 Pilot study participants input regarding the strengths and areas for improvement of the eAEROBICS program categorized into 3 dimensions of the Demand Driven Learning Model

Participation in this pilot has helped me to increase the participation of some stroke patients in aerobic exercises. 002

I liked that I was able to move back in the slides to review information at any time, including during a quiz. 001

Providing immediate feedback on responses to quiz questions aided learning. 005

Tables summarizing the content were excellent. 004

Slides were clear and easy to read. 005

I liked the links throughout the module to various resources that supplemented the information in the slides. 005

Module content was relevant to practice.

Second module was a good review 003

Quizzes to assess understanding were beneficial 001

I like the attention given to behaviour modification.”

…behaviour modification section was really helpful, as this is a common issue we deal with in practice. 004

Introductory videos and audio from the subject matter experts were helpful learning tools. 002

Section on motivational interviewing was very interesting! 003

Video footage of cases made learning more life-like and applicable. 005

The demo video was helpful 001

The graphics are used effectively to highlight key information 005

Case studies were effective at pulling the information together and reviewing the tools and information 005

I found the course content well laid out and easy to follow. 005

Practical issues such as how to access exercise stress tests should be addressed. 002

The process of how to navigate through the modules should be made more evident. 004

A paper manual as a reference guide would be a useful addition. 004

Additional resources (e.g., workshops, hands-on practical sessions) would help to reinforce the content of eAEROBICS. 004

A progress bar should be added to indicate how far along the learner is in terms of module completion. 003

There was a time delay in receiving responses to email inquiries. 005

I found the introductory piece very lengthy.

As an experienced clinician, the behaviour module was not useful. 004

A pop-up option should be added to provide formulae to assist in answering quiz questions that involve calculations. 003

More technical support is needed to respond to requests for assistance.

003

Volume of various video clips was not consistent. 005

Missed having a mechanism to ask questions 004

The formulas for HRR were a little more complex and could have had more examples of calculation. 003

Pace of narration (voiceover) was too slow at times. 005

Is it possible just to get an email/ certificate or something specifying participation in your research that can then go into my portfolio? 004
