No, not a diagram that’s an example, a diagram about examples! I created this because I needed a diagram to represent examples. However, I wanted to capture some important points about examples. The idea here is that an example should be a story, with narrative flow. So here we go.

First, the clear thing is knowing your customer’s pain, and being able to articulate how you solve that pain. You want to help articulate clearly what the problem is, and what’s it’s costing, so that then you can suggest a solution and the benefits. At core it’s about building up a solid, scrutable, case.

Of course, I hadn’t really articulated it! Then the book walks them through the thinking with models and examples. Some shake up your world view with new perspectives, so for example Don Norman’s Design of Everyday Things or Todd Rose’s The End of Average. She was looking for what I thought was a good book.

And we need SMEs who can articulate that. We need examples of wins (and losses). examples need to capture those stories. My key is to focus on the decisions that learners will be able to make that they can’t make now. Which isn’t all SMEs! That also means that we need models.

For example you could run under SCORM and still have the smart behavior. However, we chose to have more finely granulated content, down to individual practice items, separate examples, concepts, and more. Let’s consider the alternative for a minute, however. Even our introductions were going to have separate elements.

They use content management systems, carefully articulated with tight definitions and associated tags, and rules that pull together those content elements by definition into the resulting site. We’re too lax in our content, so that beyond a good objective, we don’t specify what makes a good example, etc.
