LIVING IN LEARNING JANUARY 22, 2012 Evolving Training Into the Perfect Hole Deployment gets you to the end-of-training celebration party and the three-bite shrimp, the balloons, the creepy clowns, and the face painting. frightfully high percentage of system knowledge packed into the heads and hearts of learners evaporates [unreinforced knowledge retention loss] almost before all the confetti is swept up from the gala celebration. Now our learners are in their downstream, post-training environment called the work context. Now they are outside of the scope and charter of most training organizations. Now they are most dangerous. | CHALLENGE TO LEARN JANUARY 22, 2012 A new methaphor for e-Learning I’m convinced that we have to find a new metaphor for e-Learning in order to bring e-Learning to the next level. The old book-metaphor with chapters and pages is well suited for linear courses, but it doesn’t work for more flexible individual approaches of e-Learning. made it my and easygenerators goal for this year to find and implement a new metaphor in such a way that it is as easy to use as the book metaphor, while offering the learner much more flexibility in finding her way through the course. In this post I will share some of them with you. Flipboard. Galaxy. Learning maps. | CLIVE ON LEARNING JANUARY 22, 2012 iBooks Author: Any relevance for learning in the workplace? As I've just returned from a week walking in the sunshine of Almeria, I'm probably the last to comment on Apple's announcement of it's publishing platform for multimedia text books on the iPad. If you missed it, see iBook Author here. Let's be absolutely clear, there is nothing whatsoever new about the idea of interactive multimedia books. As Managing Director of Publishing for Epic, back in the 1990s, I was involved in quite a few CD-ROM projects that mirrored quite closely was is envisioned for the iPad. So who benefits? Well, Apple of course, because they take 30% off the top of every sale. | TAYLORING IT JANUARY 22, 2012  A change is as good as a rest For some time now, I have been reflecting upon my use of Twitter. Over recent months I have found my Twitter stream to contain little, if anything of true value to me personally. It’s either been stuff that I ‘ get ‘, stuff that I’m not interested in or RTs of other peoples stuff (again, that I already ‘get’ or that I’m not interested in). | | | | | | | |

 Thoughts on public education
Tweet Everything I know, I did not learn in kindergarten. didn’t go to kindergarten. Perhaps that was good, as that was the year that my father died, and I still did not speak much English anyway. It could have made for a stressful year. No kindergarten meant I could start school a bit later and I think I was really ready when I entered that one-room schoolhouse which was probably the best learning environment I ever had. There were only three of us in Grade One, so I was also able to listen to what was going on in the Second Grade, in the same row, just ahead of me. Learning MORE >> -

For some time now, I have been reflecting upon my use of Twitter. Over recent months I have found my Twitter stream to contain little, if anything of true value to me personally. It’s either been stuff that I ‘ get ‘, stuff that I’m not interested in or RTs of other peoples stuff (again, that I already ‘get’ or that I’m not interested in). I’ve also noticed that the way I have been accessing Twitter has most definetly fallen into the ‘from a mobile device’ category – even when I’m sat in front of a PC! Share/Bookmark. MORE >> -

TAYLORING IT | SUNDAY, JANUARY 22, 2012  Twitter to G+
So it’s been a whole weekend since I decided to step away from Twitter and concentrate my energies in G+. As with most reflective exercises, the first weekend has presented me with nothing that I didn’t already know, but it has brought them to the forefront of my mind. Firstly, I feel that I have used Twitter for 3 purposes to date: The posting of links to my own online content. The discussion of professional areas of interest. Whereas in comparison G+ had only ever (with a handful of exceptions) been used as a place to tout links to my blog. Social Media G+ twitter MORE >> -
