UX in the design and delivery of L&D programs is critical to developing great learner experiences. While many corporate L&D programs have strived to understand employee interests to promote content and programs, their focus is now shifting to understand the connection between user experience and learning programs to the success of their eLearning strategy.

We’ve been using what we call the ‘learner power continuum’ to frame our thinking about social learning in the workplace. And one of the best things about it is how much it encourages you to think inside and outside the box. For example, if we’re talking about social learning - learning socially - then what’s to stop us using existing social media to launch and deliver that experience?

In a previous post , we looked at some ways to help people learn from their mistakes in branching scenarios. How can we do the same thing in the much more limited world of the mini-scenario? A mini-scenario is a one-scene story in which the player makes a choice, sees the consequence, and that’s it. The consequence could be a fast-forward peek into the future, but the player makes a decision in just one scene.

A few years ago, I had a ‘debate’ with Will Thalheimer about the Kirkpatrick model (you can read it here ). In short, he didn’t like it, and I did, for different reasons. However, the situation has changed, and it’s worth revisiting the issue of evaluation. In the debate, I was lauding how Kirkpatrick starts with the biz problem, and works backwards.

In 2017, Fortune reported that 87 percent of employers said improving employee retention was a critical priority for their organizations.¹ The leaders of these organizations are obviously aware that high turnover has become a major problem. CNN money said that the average person will have 4 jobs by the time he or she is 32 years old.² Furthermore, depending upon what type of position an employee is in, losing a worker can cost companies a lot of money.

How to design your course to build learning habits. Many of us know first-hand the power of habit—both good and bad. A good habit, like a morning routine, can help us start our day on the right foot, while a bad habit leaves us feeling consistently defeated. Because of the influence habits can have over our lives, finding ways to create, break, or change habits has become a fixation for anyone interested in self-improvement, which includes online education.

Companies like Ellie May, Amazon, Lending Tree, and Payware Software all have one thing in common: These companies are growing quickly.¹ A company doesn’t have to make it onto the Fortune list to be considered fast-growing. While companies such as these usually earn impressive income, they can also encounter unique problems. One unique problem encountered is how to go about employee training for fast growing companies.

However, without any real knowledge of xAPI, how do you know if the pros outweigh the cons, in your specific situation.

It’s time to take a moment and give performance support its due. But first, what is performance support? Performance support can take many forms, but in essence, it is task-specific guidance, support, or resources delivered at the moment of need. A printed resource guide is an example of performance support, but so is a detailed how-to video. However, all performance supports shares these two characteristics: it’s available on-demand and controlled by the individual performing the task that need

I’ve often complained about how the tools we have make it easy to do bad design. They make it easy to put PPTs and PDFs on the screen and add a quiz. And not that that’s not so, but I decided to look at it from the other direction, and I found that instructive. So here’re some thoughts on tools. Authoring tools, in general, are oriented on a ‘page’ metaphor; they’re designed to provide a sequence of pages.
