Blog Slider tools Learner Survey Towards Maturityfrom what devices. | KAPP NOTES FEBRUARY 23, 2012 Games Can Provide Authentic Experiences To provide effective instruction, it needs to be as authentic to the actual experience as possible. Additionally, forcing the learner to apply concepts within the right setting encourages them to act in an authentic manner which is different than how most people interact with courses. Gamification of context provides two key advantages. This accelerates the consequence and illustrates to the learner the cause and effect relationship that is hard to convey in a classroom setting and that isn’t always seen in the real situation because of the passage of time. | | | | | |
| SPEAK OUT NOVEMBER 22, 2010 Which feature do I add on the learner interface? How do you decide what goes on the learner interface ? We decide based on the learner profile and the need for features If your answer is A: That's incorrect! Love telling that to the learner, but hate having to read it ourselves?) Who says that these are the basic or the most essential buttons that your learner needs to navigate through the course? Take a course and test it on your learners. The idea is not to undermine the importance of features provided in a course. Why give the learner features he will not use? How you ask? Think about it. | SPEAK OUT SEPTEMBER 1, 2009 Characters in eLearning You can design an expert who will take the learner through the course. This expert simplifies information or provides useful tips drawing from his experience. The character symbolizes wisdom and is always present to see the learner through tough situations. He/she could encourage and motivate the learner through the course. The role could be defined such that he/she makes an entry to challenge, guide, provide useful information, and so on. Peer: The learner is introduced to the world of a peer. Do I want my learners to admire him? | TAYLORING IT MARCH 9, 2013  What Learners Want – Part 3 – The ‘marketing’ In order to maximise the ‘keenness’ demonstrated by the Focus Group participants we decided to provide them with immediate access to the online survey as opposed to making them wait for the ‘official’ launch date some 2-3 weeks later. Learner Survey infoscreen advert. We left a small ‘calling card’ Learner Survey desk-drop cards. | WONDERFUL BRAIN JANUARY 11, 2012 THE ACCIDENTAL LEARNER If learning is as brain scientists tell us, empowered by the relationships of ideas, the gymnastics of making connections provides meaning and quite often enrichment; then hurrah for informal learning. Everything will have meaning to the learner. Even if there is useful information on the periphery learners are not encouraged to seek it out. Could it be the distillation of informal and passive explorations can provide this jump-start? And so… I’m afraid I’ve raised more questions than provided answers. Kind of like an accidental scavenger, a web surfer. | | | | | | | |

SPEAK OUT | WEDNESDAY, APRIL 29, 2009 How important is the SME?
The Perfect SME: This SME respects timelines, works with you as a team, takes the learner's motivations and needs seriously, and gives valuable feedback. He/she is an expert in the domain and has the knowledge that will make your training program effective for the learner. SME can ensure that your course is relevant to your learner. In most situations, the SME is in the best position to share the learner's real life situations and happenings. Let them know that they need to provide or validate examples.

KAPP NOTES | THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2012 Teaching Expert Learners
Here are some tips for teaching expert learners. As employees and learners gain experience performing tasks and learning information, they develop mental representations known as mental models or a schema. While these mental models are overwhelmingly helpful, at times, they can work against a more experienced learner. First, don’t overload experts with extraneous information, Ruth Clark points to a study where novice learners needed HIgh Coherent text to understand a subject but more experienced learners need Low Coherent text.

CLIVE ON LEARNING | FRIDAY, MARCH 23, 2012 Learning, learners and logistics
was relieved, then, when my colleague Phil Green was able to provide me with a much catchier set of labels - "learning, learners and logistics". What learners absolutely must know if they are going to be able to perform effectively. What additional information needs to be provided as on-demand resources. What is the nature of the tasks learners will be expected to perform? Learners: What knowledge, skills and attitudes already exist among the target population in relation to the topic in question? How motivated will learners be? The three Ls. MORE >> -
THE ELEARNING COACH | MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2009 Characteristics of Adult Learners
By appealing to the unique qualities of adult learners, we can design more effective and motivating online courses. Here’s a list of generalized characteristics common to many but not all adult learners. Adults in the workplace prefer practical knowledge and experiences that will make work easier or provide important skills. Most adult learners have numerous responsibilities and commitments to family, friends, community and work. Carving out time for learning affects adult learners. What other characteristics of adult learners can you add this to list? MORE >> -
E-LEARNING PROVOCATEUR | SATURDAY, DECEMBER 27, 2008  Connectivism and the modern learner
The point for the learner is whether you can recognise the underlying pattern. Information comes and goes, but the source of the information will always provide you with the latest and greatest. (That’s Rather than continually feeding learners static information, we need to support their evolution in becoming their own personal knowledge managers. These days we have many excellent tools to do just that, and the modern learner is using them. The learners also need to form the connections between them to drive self-organisation. Theoretical foundations. MORE >>
