This is an excerpt from Sharon Boller’s newest white paper, Learning Trends, Technologies and Opportunities. The white paper describes today’s learning landscape… then predicts 7 trends for the next 12 – 18 months. Businesses will follow. by it. | BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE OCTOBER 2, 2009 Do learners really need learning objectives? Anyone who is a student of instructional design has heard of Robert Gagne’s nine events of instruction. In fact, when designing a course, most of us make quite sure we incorporate Gagne’s instruction event #2: (inform learners of objectives) right away. In our attempt to follow the rule, we often think less about HOW we share the learning objectives and focus more on simply listing them…in that dreaded bulleted list we introduce with the following words: “After completing this course, learners will…blah blah blah.” Why do we do this? What does it really achieve? That soon stopped. | | | | | | | BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE SEPTEMBER 29, 2009 Getting the most out of your Subject Matter Experts Previously, I focused on identifying the elusive “need to have” content that supports the performance objectives in a course design. mentioned that, in many cases, some percentage of content exists, but not in written format. Usually this means the content lives inside the head of a subject matter expert , or SME. My job is to get it out of that SME’s head and into the course. But how? Through osmosis? Hypnosis? Charm and Persuasion? Not quite. What would you say if I told you…Mad Libs? Remember Mad Libs? Mad Libs is basically a book of little stories that contain lots of missing words. | BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE DECEMBER 11, 2009 Mobile Photo Search: The learning potential Dear Google, what can’t you do??? This week Google announced the launch of Google Goggles. It’s a mobile app for android phones that allows you to complete internet searches based on a photo you take with your smart phone. What’s that, you ask? That blows my mind!! How does it do that?

The gamification of learning is a hot, hot trend with great potential to improve the quality of learning experiences for adults – not just kids. We are sold on the value of games in learning, and we want to actively promote their use. Mastering the Jargon of Game Design. Getting Ideas for Games. | BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE APRIL 30, 2013 3 Ways to Use Game Based Learning in Corporate Training This is a quote from a middle school student at the Quest to Learn School that opened in Fall 2009. '“We learn everything that all the other schools learn, we just learn it differently.”. It’s one of the intro comments made in a short YouTube video that does a fantastic job of explaining and SHOWING the answer to “Why games as learning and teaching tools?” The video is embedded above. | | | | | | | | | -
BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE | TUESDAY, MARCH 12, 2013 A Counterpoint to Ruth Clark’s “Why Games Don’t Teach” These studies were conducted and shared by Dr. Richard Blunt in 2009. less academic version was published in eLearn magazine in December 2009. In February’s Learning Solutions magazine, Dr. Ruth Clark started quite a buzz. She wrote an article with the provocative title, “Why Games Don’t Teach.” ” This was actually the second time she has written an article with the same title… the first appearing on the ASTD Learning & Development blog. For those of us who are passionate about game-based learning (GBL), she caused a bit of an uproar. Randall, B.A. MORE >> -
BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE | THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 2012 This Week on #TalkTech: Mobile Learning Strategy, #EdTech apps for iPhone and ROI of #TinCanAPI We uncovered a fantastic post from wayyy back in (gasp) 2009 about designing educational apps that still has validity. #TalkTech is the “flipped” approach to Twitter chats. We publish all the topics a few hours before the chat so you can show up at 3 pm EST / 12 pm PST on Thursdays ready to discuss. We’re never at a loss for new tech news, apps, and interesting blogs to explore in our weekly chats. Take a look at what we have planned for this week: Mobile learning design must account for multiple screens. Image courtesy of [link]. Useful & engaging start up screen. What do you think? MORE >> -
BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE | MONDAY, JUNE 29, 2009 Anthropological Definition of Web 2.0 (More fun than it sounds) I spent the day at an ASTD conference on e-Learning design. We spent a very abreviated time talking about development tools, and HTML and XML came up. More about what else I learned at the conference later.). When I got back this evening, I wanted to know a little more about XML. Oddly, I discovered this video among the links, and I’m very impressed. think this video offers an astounding look at what XML really means, by tracing how society uses it to contribute to all that we call Web 2.0. Check out what one professor of anthropology has to say about the evolution on the web. MORE >> -
BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE | WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 2011 Mobile Learning: A couple examples of the promise it offers We have integrated mobile devices into our lives at a lightning fast pace: In 2009, 83% of adult Americans owned a mobile phone (and who knows how many children!) ( 2009 Pew Internet Report ); we can assume that a poll taken today would show even higher percentages. I am constantly amazed by how much I do on my cell phone—read e-mails, send texts, take photos, play games, access the Internet—all of which make using a desktop computer seem less and less necessary. In fact, it’s entirely possible (and likely) that you are reading this blog post from your own personal Smartphone. MORE >> -
BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE | FRIDAY, AUGUST 7, 2009 Every multimedia developer’s nightmare…the LCMS It seems important to begin this post with a disclaimer…this is my “multimedia developer opinion. You’ve been warned. As a multimedia developer the thought of developing e-Learning with an LCMS development tool sends shivers up my spine (not the good kind, like when you learn a new way to make something animate in Flash…yes, I know I need to get out more). Don’t get me wrong, the majority of LCMS development tools are great for rapid development, and are a great way to manage content and content objects with a single application. MORE >>
