I have been reading articles lately from the Journal of Learning Design. For those who don't know of the journal, it is a journal that focuses on designing the learning environment to assist the learning process, concentrating on a design focus rather than technology and looking to move beyond a traditional instructional focus.

The book has again turned my mind towards the question of using social media tools to provide another channel for organisational learning. Provide them with engaging tools and let them go - together. . Provide engaging tools that allow employees to find what they need to know, when they need to know it. So, to wrap this up.

1 The Designful Company. Marty Neumeier's book has had me coming back to re-read bits of it time and time again and has definitely influenced how I view design in learning. a fine line continued my reading in 2009 around design, not specifically learning design in this case. 7 Design Thinking. 3 a fine line.

The internet, digital media and cheap, powerful computers have provided people with an option they never had - Read Write. Learners today do not want to sit passively as the 'teacher' provides them with knowledge. The concept of Instructional Design now goes by the wayside, replaced instead by the idea of Learning Design.

The way I see it, there are two important parts to a successful social platform: Design and. From a design perspective I have previously looked at putting design into learning design , and this makes sense in regards to designing a social site as well. However, whilst design is important, it isn't everything!

I'm also interested in how design thinking impacts upon learning and the use of visuals to communicate ideas and knowledge. I've only been actively participating on Twitter for 4-5 months now. I tweet (as @stickylearning ) mainly about learning related topics and follow people who also have learning as their main focus.

Provide a separate handout with the details. . Think like a designer! Powerpoint/Keynote provide a range of themes to choose from. Some people think fewer slides is better but not if that means densely packed text that is too small to read. Each slide is free so why cram it full? How much text? Avoid bullet points.

This describes a situation where the worker has given explicit permission for the business to provide them with the elearning/videos/webinars/etc that the business believes the worker might need and be interested in. Such an idea may work as long as the learning opportunities provided continue to meet the workers' expectations of the brand.

Garr Reynolds' new book, PresentationZen Design , is his follow-up to his first book, PresentationZen of 2008.
