Widespread dissatisfaction with out-of-date LMS and a survey conducted by Brandon Hall Group in which 31% of respondents said they would not recommend their current LMS to a colleague. Pair that with the data that shows 38% of organizations are actively looking to replace their LMS , and you don’t exactly get a ringing endorsement for legacy systems relied on by some of the world’s best organizations.

Microlearning and its Impact. Microlearning is important to all learners. It’s not: Microlearning is so important to learners of all ages and backgrounds because of its ability to send short bursts of…. Keep it simple. Keep it short. In a previous article we talked about some simple video tools to make content. Do not make your content with the “Gone With The Wind” approach because that is literally how much your learners will retain.

Nor should we try. In a day and age when we are challenged to do more with less, less people, less money, less onsite resources, we have to prioritize on where we focus our efforts. Remember the 80/20 rule – deciding what is worth your time for the best result. This may mean developing training that may not be your proudest moment. We have all been there.

I occasionally help out with RFPs. A common question is to provide a release or upgrade history (Release Notes) of our GyrusAim LMS that shows its revisions over time. Access to such a document is very important for prospects prior to signing a contract. An ongoing history of software releases provided by an LMS vendor proves that they invest resources into developing the product by adding new features and fixing problems.

One of the hardest decisions anyone makes when setting up their WordPress LMS is which theme to use. With so many themes out there (many of which look fantastic), searching for the “best” one can become overwhelming. What often happens is that people will choose one WordPress theme, then switch to another as they start to encounter an issue.

We recently came across an excellent article on fastcodesign.com about the importance of good web design in influencing user behavior. Writer Aaron Otani laid out four steps for designing pages that get people clicking and send conversion rates skyward.

I recently came across an article ostensibly about branching scenarios, but somehow the discussion largely missed the point. Ok, so I can be a stickler for conceptual clarity, but I think it’s important to distinguish between different types of scenarios and their relative strengths and weaknesses. So in my book Engaging Learning , I was looking to talk about how to make engaging learning experiences.

Although it might seem absurd to design training without the end user in mind, an audience analysis is an extremely important yet often overlooked element of instructional design. Before creating an eLearning course, you should find out as much as possible about your learners. This information should directly impact your design and content choices. For example, the experience levels of the audience will affect the types of activities incorporated in the course.

Nobody working in the world of eLearning can get far without getting involved in some form of compliance training. On the one hand, it’s the bread and butter for many eLearning designers (according to Charles Jennings, 80% of all eLearning in Australia has to do with compliance), and there seem to be a never ending stream of legislation that employers are required to make sure their employees are aware of.

by Tess Robinson, Director, LAS. The latest Towards Maturity benchmark report makes rather depressing reading. Despite being consistently able to show that those organisations who embrace learning technologies perform better, be it through increasing revenue, improving productivity or job performance, the overall situation remains relatively static in terms of budget committed to digital learning or the range of technology used.

Learning can be thought of as the continuous process of acquiring knowledge which leads to the later ability of applying that knowledge in real situations when life demands it. Many people consider that the intelligence quotient (IQ) of someone is the single most important factor over one's capacity of learning how to solve complicated math problems or draw intricate designs.
