Way back when I was just a marketing minion working in development at a nonprofit, I used to attend workshops and classes that would help me learn more about my industry. The education director will probably need to address technical planning and develop a deployment strategy.

Like gamification, this concept is exciting, but will be seen as impractical by training and development departments. With augmented learning this scenario could become reality. Verdict: Go Away ( for now ). Still, we look forward to the day when augmented learning is accepted, we just don’t think it will be any time soon. Cloud Based.

As an Education Director, you see the writing on the wall, and have decided that eLearning is the answer your association’s needs. But wait…How will you explain eLearning to your Executive Director?

So, it’s up to you and your association to think about the UX when you’re developing eLearning. They don’t have to be restricted to eLearning, feel free to include things like the mislabeled card reader I ran into.
