My Typical Week as an LXD Consultant

Experiencing eLearning

Everyone manages their time a little differently, but I’ve been asked several times what a typical week looks like in my work. I’m an independent consultant, so my schedule is different from people who work full time for a single company. I work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. It’s hard to say what a single day is, but here’s my basic weekly pattern.

It’s that time of year for reflections and goals, looking back at 2023 and looking ahead to 2024. These are my top blog posts from 2023 plus a review of a few other accomplishments and my goals for 2024.

Experiencing eLearning

Last week, I presented at TechLearn 2023 in New Orleans. This was my first time attending this conference and visiting New Orleans. It was great to see some familiar faces from other conferences, meet some long-time online colleagues in person, and get to know a number of new folks. I enjoy smaller conferences like this where there’s more opportunities to talk and network.

Prototype Branching Scenario Written by ChatGPT

Experiencing eLearning

I’ve been experimenting with using ChatGPT to draft a branching scenario. Now, I have a complete prototype scenario, “The New Hire with Attitude,” written by ChatGPT. To create the scenario, I generally prompted for one decision point or passage at a time. I did some light editing of the text while creating this prototype, but I mostly left the text as is.

How can you use AI to write scenarios for learning? I am not an expert in AI by any stretch, but I have been experimenting with ChatGPT, Bard, and other AI tools.
