I am delighted to report that recordings of the April Learntrends sessions are online. After all, April Learntrends was an experiment in socially-mediated learning in lieu of traditional presentation. experimentation with teaching and learning that challenges assumptions of courses and conferences is intriguing.

Clark Quinn and I led a discussion on Reinventing Organizational Learning at LearnTrends this morning.

That certainly goes along with what we’ve done with LearnTrends and what’s going on with social learning. Mobile learning a couple years ago was an attempt to put courses on mobile devices. I must look into Google Wave as the basis for social interaction that goes along with a course. Can I easily mash it with a course?

They had attended the LearnTrends free online conference. Of course, I generally am more comfortable with directed Learning Goals. I was recently asked me about my recommendations for conducting effective online conferences (virtual conference). This is where a good prep person along with a good moderator can really help.

The theme of LearnTrends 2009 is a term I call Convergence. This means: providing solutions beyond traditional training / courses working closely with other parts of the organization including Enterprise 2.0, It's really about the fact that learning and development leaders have an opportunity to embrace 2.0.

Of course, the problem with predictions, especially written predictions, is that you can look back and see how you did at the end of the year. These things can create fun interactions that easily fit into a course built with one of the above tools. LearnTrends had a bunch of these. They also fit into a wiki page.

Particularly, I'm interested in the question of: While training as a publisher of courses and courseware faces an increasingly challenging market, what other things can learning businesses successfully sell to internal or external customers?
