When I talk to people about starting a blog, they often state they don’t have anything to write about. They ask how I come up with ideas, especially when I’ve been blogging so long. As I approach my ninth anniversary of starting this blog, I feel like I have more to write about than I did after one year. I get stuck on writing sometimes, just like everyone else, but I’ve figured out ways to work through those blocks.

What’s your learning style? Perhaps it’s based on your senses (auditory, tactile, visual); or how you engage with content (hands on, conceptual or reflective); or even how you relate to others (collaborative, competitive). It’s a hard choice, especially since according to one comprehensive study there are over 71 learning styles from a range of different models.

Reviews are a key part of developing any eLearning. In my experience, they’re also one of the steps that cause the most confusion and delays. Whether you’re working with an outside vendor or someone within your association, clear communication and good documentation can make the process much smoother. Reviews generally take place at two points, the storyboard and the actual course.

Gamification has been the buzz word of elearning for the past few years, but during many conversations with elearning professionals I have found that not everyone is convinced about its impact. The question lingers: is gamification still just hype? Since 2012 there has been a steady rise in its use. Back in 2012 the gamification niche of elearning was at $242 million.

In thinking a bit about the Future of Work, one of the issues is where to start.

It’s that time of the year again. That time when we all reflect on the year that has gone by and commit to changes in the upcoming year. It seems part of our DNA to continually seek out ways to t to do things differently; to constantly improve. Sometimes these resolutions take the form of eliminating a bad habit (such as smoking), and other times it may involve committing to a new behavior or project.
