Yes, YouTube is a form of social media, but so is Pandora, and I’m unaware of any LMS vendor enabling Pandora in their system. Mobile Learning. But, the reason I constantly bash this into e-learning vendors heads is this just DON’T GET IT. near the bottom e-readers and tablets.

In 2011, I saw quite a few items that resonated. They involved talent management, “hello and goodbye” with vendors, social learning, upswing in mobile learning, new feature sets in the authoring tool space, flat lining in web conferencing and standalone platforms. Social Learning.

Mobile Learning. This is one of the most shocking trends in the space – the significant lack of mobile learning in these systems. What makes this so bizarre is the extensive amount of data, that clearly shows students of all ages are using mobile devices. K-12 students.

But with LMS vendors jumping into the mobile learning sector, at least in some cases, it may be a tad misleading, especially with smartphones.

The people who suffer the most from this contradiction are the consumers and a vast majority of vendors. While mobile learning is moving at an incredible speed, faster than anticipated by some of my colleagues, it does not come without a cost. Your mobile web browser. HTML5 or is it? That cost is in the pitch of HTML5.

I’m not a lead gen for the vendors listed – rather the goal is to provide you with vendors that meet numerous criteria including UI, features, support/service, mobile, feedback from current and past clients and future game plans. Support of the iPad, thus mobile learning. 100% independent. Easy to use.

What I like about conferences is the ability to see the latest products and hear the pitches from the vendors. Vendors who will have a mini-review followed by a full review posted on the blog.

Mobile Learning. Incorporation from the standpoint of smart phones but with limited features – ala see it as a collaborative learning tool, social learning angle. Plus for vendors who offer a mobile learning LMS, it is an additional cost. T-Mobile has equal problems, as does Sprint.

Best of all, as technology evolves, this form of learning evolves too. Mobile learning with tablets – in of itself border free- and now with social exchange: wow, lots of possibilities. You may ask, but what if I have a learning platform, can I do this as well? E-Learning 24/7. 20th/21st in Moscow.

Case in point, one vendor who had a RFP on their site, for anyone to download, had statements in there – that truly applied to their product. There is no reason in 2011, to use a RFP that is 20 pages or more. For the mobile learning question – Initial – “Do you offer mobile learning?&#.

The product is Flash based, which is nice, but lack of mobile optimization for the iPad. Social Learning is limited. Vendors who are my clients are aware, prior for me working with them, that there is no quid pro quo, nor any special treatment given to them on my blog. Accepts APIs and shopping cart. Reporting, is solid.

In 2009 and 2010, many vendors in the LMS market, tossed in items that at one time were extra fees. E-Commerce, support, branding, customization (to a degree). In 2011, the trend is showing that those days are gone. So, you now have an open marketplace with a social learning twist to it. Mobile Learning and Tablets.

As we reach the first anniversary of this blog’s introduction, we thought we’d take stock and figure out how things are going by revisiting our list of predictions for enterprise mobile learning in 2010. On balance, it was an interesting year and there were far more expected outcomes than there were actual surprises.

2011 will show profitable gains for a large portion of vendors across the sector. A benefit to all of this, is it accelerates innovation, since competition will still be tight, and that in turns enhances products & solutions for online learning customers and clients.
