KAPP NOTES JANUARY 14, 2013  Summary of a Literture Review on The Effectiveness of Instructional Games by Robert Hays In 2005, Robert T. Hays, of the Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division published the results of an extensive literature review on games for instruction. It is an expansive look at the literature on the effectiveness of games for learning up until the year 2005. Here is a link to the technical paper. The literature includes research on different tasks, age groups, and types of games. | LEARNDASH JANUARY 13, 2013  Why Google Will Enter The E-Learning Industry I am not really big on “what-ifs”, but I thought about an interesting concept recently as I pondered the current state of our industry. When you consider that e-learning (and now m-learning) is growing exponentially in terms of revenue generated, it’s not all that inconceivable to think that a juggernaut like Google would enter the fray to get their piece of the pie. | STOATLY DIFFERENT JANUARY 18, 2013 50 free sources of learning content for your curation Christmas always brings a conundrum. The kids want new toys, but they don’t play with the ones they’ve already got! Dutifully, you spend your hard earned cash adding to the pile of toys. Recognition is fleeting. By the time you read this blog, all new toys will have become a part of the amorphous mass of toys that sits in the corner of the bedroom. There they are doomed to remain, relatively untouched for the rest of the year, until of course the cycle begins again. Nothing changes as we get older. Or indeed when we move to the world of work. New toys, that’s what we need. | GOOD TO GREAT JANUARY 14, 2013  Brilliant backchannel tweeting: what to do before an event If you want to improve the contribution you make a conference or event backchannel , to both get value from it yourself and add value for others, your job begins before the event itself. One of the things that sets the best conference tweeters (I was going to include some examples here, but got so many suggestions it’s become a separate post !) Prepare yourself with the key Twitter details. | | | | | | | |

JAY CROSS | WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 16, 2013  Peeragogy
The Peeragogy Handbook. How to Use this Handbook. Working together is how things get done. This free, open, crowd-sourced wiki-book shows us the best ways to get there. I’m glad I was on the team that created it. Intro: If you want to learn how to fix a pipe, solve a partial differential equation, write software, you are seconds away from know-how via YouTube, Wikipedia and search engines. Access to technology and access to knowledge, however, isn’t enough. Learning is a social, active, and ongoing process. In particular, what do they need to know about peer learning? Peeragogy.

SPARK YOUR INTEREST | FRIDAY, JANUARY 18, 2013  The nature of e-learning in Australia
This post is written by Ryan Tracey. The young nation of Australia has a rich history in e-learning. They say necessity is the mother of invention, and so in 1951 the School of the Air was launched to educate children dispersed across the outback. From Kalgoorlie in the west to the aptly named Longreach in the east, school students in remote communities received their instruction over the radio. Fast forward to today, and our love affair with communication technology continues unabated. Furthermore, 38% own a tablet, and another 33% are planning to purchase a tablet within the next 12 months. MORE >> -
KAPP NOTES | TUESDAY, JANUARY 15, 2013 Summary of #Games Research Qualitative Literature Review Conducted by Fengfeng Ke
