Experiencing eLearning

Back when I wrote my instructional design careers series in 2007, I was only aware of a few blogs by instructional designers. Since then, I’ve discovered a wealth of blogs by instructional designers, e-learning developers, and workplace learning specialists. Tracy Hamilton writes Discovery through eLearning.

A while back we did a post listing 100 Great Game Based Learning and Gamification Resources , and since then we’ve done an occasional series called GBL Picks to try and curate information for you. So in line with that mission, we’d like to recommend 5 great blogs about serious games and gamification (besides our own of course).

Like many enterprise learning companies, we are actively brainstorming ways to incorporate collaborative Web 2.0 technologies into our training programs, but rarely do we find a client that wants to create a robust learning environment comprised of both formal and informal components. However, wikis are only the tip of the iceberg.

As e-learning professionals we talk a lot about how things should be done. Many e-learning developers simply don't feel comfortable adding engaging content on short notice. Most developers I've met have picked up the trade through on-the-job-training and have no formal training in e-learning development. And guess what?

It’s time, once again, for Jane Hart’s excellent Top 10 Tools for Learning survey. Here are my take on the top 10 tools that support my learning. The first way I learn is to process what I’ve seen. Writing is arguably the top way I reflect. That’s where I write books and articles first.

Writing a blog post is often time consuming and a lot of effort goes into research, writing, and editing. Since you’re already writing the post –why not also make a blog video? A vlog is a blog that is primarily delivered in video format. Step 1: Write a simple script. They can read, watch, or both.

This time it's whether Twitter is killing blogging. I was only on the periphery of the Twitter vs blogging debate when I chaired a F-ALT (Fringe ALT-C) session late at night over at the Contact Theatre in Manchester last week. One of the questions is: Now you are using Twitter, is your blogging activity tailing off?

We decided to outline our curriculum in a skeletal form using a blog, and then set social interactions in the curriculum context. In this post, I summarize what we learned about the ad-hoc social learning environments.

Argyll and Bute's attempts to censor a 9 year old blogging about her school dinners backfired spectacularly when they were forced to very publicly retract their original decision. The Argyll and Bute council officials thought that newspaper coverage of the 9 year old's blog was causing catering staff to fear for their jobs.
