I'm heading out to ASTD in Atlanta tomorrow after I do a keynote tomorrow morning here in Los Angeles for the ASTD eLearning Bootcamp. I hope if you read this and you are going to either one, you will introduce yourself.

Last week at ASTD TechKnowledge , I did a keynote on Work Literacy and eLearning 2.0, an online Q&A Session for the Virtual Conference and a session on using Web 2.0 Tools for eLearning. You can find the handouts for the last session via TK09 Handouts. I thought I'd capture some links and thoughts around these sessions.

ASTD TechKnowledge 2008 is coming soon in San Antonio. It also supposes you can get into and use ASTD CONNECT for the conference. Now that it's less than a month away, I thought I'd sit down and try to do some conference planning. To help me prepare, I went back to a few previous posts on related topics. Does anyone else?

Frank Nguyen is presenting at ASTD on EPSS. You can find his presentation on his site. His major points were: Search is not an effective method for performers to find information. Integrating information closer to the work flow and work interface can improve performance. Novices cannot effectively use the same support systems as experts.

Continuing what has now become somewhat a tradition (see Beer Tasting at ASTD TechKnowledge , and Boston, Beer - Bloggers - Learn.com ), I plan to informally get together with bloggers at the ASTD conference in Atlanta in June to go have a few beers. If you are planning to go to ASTD and you have a blog, drop me a comment.

I'm on the flight back from ASTD TechKnowledge and thought I should try to capture some initial thoughts from the conference and sessions while it was still fresh and before life clouds my memory. I'm going to do a similar presentation in June at ASTD ICE in San Diego. I did two sessions and face time at the conference.

Are you going to the eLearningGuild Annual Gathering in Boston? If so, I've got a suggestion. Jay Cross , Harold Jarche , Clark Quinn all were able to join me.

And there are sites like ASTD that go well outside the world of eLearning. e.g., ASTD (which has good traffic), CLO Media (which doesn’t seem to have good traffic volume) Sites that I can’t get accurate numbers separate from the base site. Learning Circuits is part of ASTD. Is this a surprise to you?

My experience has been that ASTD audiences do not blog as much as other audiences such as the eLearning Guild and I commented about that in More eLearning Bloggers. However, I've noticed that there have been quite a few posts discussing experiences at ASTD TechKnowledge 2008.

Through the post on Conference Balance an in thinking about the keynotes at ASTD that I attended ( ASTD Keynote - Malcolm Gladwell , Dysfunctional Teams ), I realized that one of the reasons that I like going to conferences is it forces me (sometimes slowly and painfully) to get exposed to a diversity of topics.

I'm excited about the presentation I'm creating for ASTD 2008 in San Diego. However, as part of putting it together, I was searching for a comic that I know I saw years ago where people were making fun of an executive that had his assistant print out his emails and dictated his responses.

Maybe Brent Schlenker, Heidi Fisk, someone at ASTD or other conferences can tell us the # of RFPs vs. into the conference. The session will be workforce learning professionals (an ASTD audience). So what LMS are you using? can say that this made pulling things together for the conference significantly easier. Original post.

Looking forward to doing something like this in Atlanta for the ASTD Conference. One of the more fun things we did in Boston was going out for a beer tasting that was organized by Jim Javenkoski, Learn.com and myself. You can read Jim's write-up Of beer, blogists and Boston.

He'd like to see a balance: This is interesting timing for me having just returned from the ASTD Conference. But in fairness to ASTD - it seems like it's hard to get participation when 70% of attendees are relatively new to the industry and are first time attendees. Very little participation.

Applications I did something along these lines (two presentations) at ASTD TechKnowledge 2007, but many people came to the Applications presentation without having attended the 101 presentation. Out of ASTD TK 2007 and the eLearningGuild, I know at least a few people have taken my presentation to heart.

As a comment on my last post First Thoughts After ASTD Sessions , Chris from eQuixotic reminded me that I could have asked the audience to move towards the front of the room to fill empty spots in order for them to hear. I thought about it, but decided not to. It certainly hurt the session to have a large room.

I was just talking about the importance of filtering skills for my ASTD 2008 presentation. You might call us 'infovores.' " The same thing happens with information as with food. We are programmed for scarcity and can't dial back when something is abundant. Of course, it's a balance. We can't just shut off the flow of information.
