Tackling a New Captivate Project
When I'm not performing interpretive dance, this is what I do. could have sworn I have written this down before somewhere in this blog. If I have, it's been awhile and I'm sure I've fine-tuned the process since then. the request of the Manager.How Wendy tackle's a new Captivate project! create software simulations about 95% of the time. This is how I tackle a software simulation project. It's ugly.

What I Learned in 2009
I'm not going to entirely couch this in terms of "What I Learned About Learning" ( this month's Big Question ) because I think it is all of a piece this year. Lesson 1: Learning how to play well with others I find that playing well with others often means ceding control. This requires huge amounts of trust.

We have done some similar projects and we have taken the same approach. the LMS just takes too much time for people to get into and find what they need.
