I think of the plethora of skills that are developed away from the cubicle. This idea has taken the education world by storm, and some LMSs such as UpsideLMS have already integrated the API into their proprietary architecture. I don’t. I think of informal learning. Relevant stuff. Furthermore, I can update my tin can manually.

If a job applicant lists some MOOCs on their CV, I think it demonstrates an aptitude to drive their own development. By this I mean integrating the content with the environment in which the individual is situated, and I see a lot of potential in augmented reality and wearable technologies facilitating this. The moot point of MOOCs.

If Udemy had rejected my argument, I would have had no choice but to consolidate my Q&A videos into one long clip – which not only would have compromised the integrity of the instruction IMHO, but also would have affected the marketing as prospective students would not be able to see the full outline of the contents.

In my previous post, Learning vs Development , I connected Cook-Greuter’s bidirectional view of development to the two sides of the L&D equation: horizontal growth representing the “L&# and vertical transformation representing the “D&#. This reminds me of ecological psychology.

Integration of Yammer-based discourse into L&D offerings was also placed surprisingly low. The placement of Community Manager at this tier pleasantly surprised me, given the pool of respondents. Nonetheless, some sort of management of the forum is considered important in driving its use.

An ILE is a space that centralises tools and resources that the learner can use to drive their own development. The organisation manages the ILE on behalf of the learners, who are free to search, explore, ask and share at their own pace and at their own discretion, and – ideally – integrate the system into their broader PLE.

Siemens describes connectivism as “the integration of principles explored by chaos, network, and complexity and self-organisation theories&#. To support the development of connectivist meta-learning skills, consider the following: Encourage your learners to find further sources of information for themselves.

The responsibility for e-learning development will decentralise across the organisation. In 10 years’ time, I believe organisations will rely less on external development houses to produce e-learning solutions, and instead bring more – if not all – of it in-house. E-Learning development should be no different.

• Develop an informal VLE to centralise all the resources. • Encourage the learner to integrate the VLE into a broader PLE. . • Avoid merely listing hyperlinks: instead, provide explanations to help the learner recognise meaningful patterns among them. • Create a social bookmarking account.

The proliferation of so-called rapid authoring tools over the last few years has coincided with an explosion in the number of online courses developed in-house. In the bad old days, technically challenged L&D professionals had to pay exorbitant fees to development houses to produce simple modules. But you know what?

Man… I was percolating a blog post that predicted Gowalla would merge with Foursquare , when Ben Parr chimes in with this: Gowalla Turns the Tables, Integrates With Foursquare. I can’t see employers forcing their people to create Facebook accounts, even if it is for lofty learning and development purposes. Facebook Places.
