I CAME, I SAW, I LEARNED MARCH 29, 2012 PowerPoint 2007 & 2010: How to Turn an Image Into An Animated Puzzle by AJ George A recent question in the Microsoft Office forums inquired about the process of animating a picture in PowerPoint so that it came onto the slide piece by piece--like a puzzle.

Unzip the file. | THE LEARNING CIRCUITS BLOG MARCH 27, 2012 Computers, Learning Professionals, and their Roles in Curation In my first post for Learning Circuits, I explored how I use Twitter as a professional development tool. Over the past two weeks, we've looked at Filtering: A Challenge and Responsibility for Learning Professionals , and Curation: A Core Competency for Learning Professionals.

Who Qualifies as a Curator?

The IMS Global Learning Consortium has announced the release latest version of the IMS Learning Tools Interoperability Specification – Version 1.1. This specification provides a way for courses running in IMS-conformant Learning Management systems to securely access remote content, tools and services, and receive back user’s results. This is a big change, and a welcome one. At long last, we have entered a new phase in learning technologies that is driven by cloud content and services.

CHALLENGE TO LEARN | SATURDAY, MARCH 24, 2012 #LSCON day 3: Scenario based assesments and Choices I was able to attend two session at the last day of LSCON. The first (concurrent) session was from Iskandaria Masduki about scenario based assessments. Good session with an interesting mix of theory and practical examples.

E-LEARNING UNCOVERED | TUESDAY, MARCH 27, 2012 What is the Value of Games in E-Learning? I was raised in a household where video games were not allowed. My mother believed they were a waste of time, had no value, and – worse – could have negative effects.

We have created games that present value in e-learning courses by using them to teach content and test knowledge. And, now I have a 7-year-old who wants to play video games – just because! Can you believe it?) Let’s take a look at who is gaming. MORE >> -
