More and more organizations with eLearning programs in place are feeling the need to move towards mLearning, and we believe that Tablet Learning can be a smooth and easy way to initiate this shift. In many cases, though, Tablet Learning is considered a form of mLearning, and there is often a degree of hesitation to make the switch, perhaps brought on by typical myths associated with Mobile Learning.

Performance Support is a lot more complex than a job aid. I would add that when properly integrated as an inclusive bridge between training and actual work performance there exists an inherent strategic value that up until recently was rarely considered. I would even go so far as positioning a Performance Support Strategy as a key driver over a Learning & Development strategy.

The following is an excerpt from an article published on Techcrunch.com. Forrester’s latest report on mobile adoption in the enterprise found that 66% of employees now use two or more devices every day, including desktops, laptops, smartphones and tablets. A smaller, but notable 12% percent said they now use tablets at work. That’s still far fewer than the 50% who report only using a desktop, or the 82% who use a desktop alone or alongside other devices.

If you find the web as useful as other tools (or more so), how did the web become that way? (BTW: I assume many of us find this whole web thing pretty useful.) Is it because someone paid for it? Is it that it’s highly regulated by some all-knowing presence who determines what you need to know and when? No. It’s useful because the web is a self-regulating platform that everyone can contribute to as you they fit.
