More and more vendors are calling themselves digital learning platforms (DLP). There are a few vendors who say, that “most popular” is only based on that learner and what they are taking – but again, if it is assigned, and to me specifically, I’m going to be taking it. . Key Takeaways. The term LXP is fading.

iCloud and iTunes, for example, have allowed us to do away with the skips on our CDs and DVD’s, or having to physically print out photos. Generally, LMS vendors deal with all that mess for you, so that when you go to your boss with the total cost of ownership (TCO) of an LMS , you get an easy nod of approval. .

Most prototypes I have seen thus far are cumbersome and require you to compile an App on your desktop, add it to iTunes and then sync up your iPad in order to see your work. Too much work. In Apple iBooks Author, you simply click the Preview button and voila, your Interactive book is sent to your iPad.

Next, came iTunes, which went from just music to e-books, movies and eventually podcasts. Now, they have dumped iTunes and split into three different streams of content for purchase, yet still sell hardware and oh yeah, an operating system. There are LMS vendors who offer resources via 3rd party providers, just as the LXPs offer.

I never understood why vendors love to place the pricing in the far back of their proposals, some of which I have seen that are more than 25 pages, as though you are going to start on the first page and read through. Just as I can’t figure out why vendors love giving you their history as if that is going to sway you on buying a system.

Expect to see an increase and focus on “skills”, whether it is skill-building, retaining skills or expanding someone’s skill set; vendors who really push this route, should include a KRT (knowledge reinforcement tool), however what I am seeing is that this secondary function will be slow.
