The Big Question on the LCB for January is: What are the trade offs between quality learning programs and rapid e-learning and how do you decide? There's a lot involved in this question and I plan to revisit it several times during the month. Props to the first person to leave a comment that identifies the source of this quote.

Since I'm likely not going to be blogging for about a week starting Friday, I thought I'd get an early jump on this month's Big Question from LCB - ILT and Off-the-Shelf Vendors - What Should They Do? There's really a lot at stake in this question in that it goes far beyond the question. eHarmony does that as well.

The April Big Question in the Learning Circuits Blog is simply ‘how do we keep up?’ How the heck are we supposed to stay up to speed on all the latest stuff and be successful using it personally and professionally? At one level this question can be answered very simply, because keeping up has never been easier.
