Hi everybody!
I am very excited to see so many qualified and different entries from all of you!! (all my colleagues are very impressed!) I have not had the time to give all of you individual feedback today, but my major focus area has been to point out the importance of the illustration in the logo. I believe the best logos, will contain illustrations which, even without text, are able to say "this is about e-learning". These would be logos, which are able to capture the essence of digital learning – either through recognizable symbols such as: hand, laptop/screen, man in front of computer, mouse, other icons – or through the interactivity between human and the digital learning experience. There can be many other ways to illustrate this, but it is very important to us, to have an e-learning logo, where the illustration can "speak" for itself – even without the explanatory wording "e-læring". An "e" as illustration can certainly be nice-looking, but it doesn't really say anything about e-learning. Perhaps you can imagine yourself taking an e-learning course – which abstractions do that bring to mind? Which elements would you focus on, and how would you explain the process in one simple illustration?
I hope you guys can take inspiration from my thoughts, and I truly hope you will all keep on challenging your creative imaginations as we strive toward the goal :)
Cheers,
Christian
