Im a believer in this stuff. So I have no expertise in this area -- and perhaps this is really just a note to self to look into this topic more -- but Im just wondering how brain plasticity relates to the recent NIH study out that claims that cognitive ability is mostly developed by adolescence (found via Jay Cross ).

Instructional Designers as Chefs Different eating experiences require different expertise. And I would argue that different training experiences also require different expertise.

My current business card says Im a "Manager of Instructional Design". I had expertise. And now Im here -- "Manager of Instructional Design." But at this point, Im here to stay. This is my expertise, even without the fancy letters after my name. My point is this: I dont think Im that unusual. I was an SME.

Expertise locators connect workers to people with answers; social software connects them with friends and colleagues. For example, bloggers may not communicate well with IM users. A similar proportion reported that their people did not learn new developments via in-house discussion forums. Coordination breaks down.

Im going to quote heavily from the article here, inserting my own thoughts along the way. Either these companies wont have the time or the resources to do it internally, or they will be looking for that extra-edge that a focused e-Learning company can provide: instructional design expertise, graphic design, interaction design.

Im not sure if the SME was reading a script, reading the notes, or just speaking from the heart. Go out and get your SME to say it like it is into a microphone and share their expertise. For example I like Tom Kulhmann's demos because the audio is very natural and demonstrated expertise :) 12:01 AM Sumeet Moghe said.

A cloud-based LMS is a web-based platform that helps companies to deliver, track, and report on eLearning. The main difference between a cloud LMS and other solutions is that learning content, tracking and reporting data is stored in the cloud. Custom fields can also be used as filters to generate detailed reporting information.

I come from an old-school approach: I sort of understand the technology, but I leave the graphics and programming expertise to others. They think that only the "official" people have the right or expertise to produce good content. But Im not sure I can get people to hold their answers back. 5:07 PM christytucker said.
