Before diving into this topic and then seeing all the folks rant on LinkedIn about how ILT is great, will survive, e-learning is awful, and the moon is definitely made of cheese, I wanted to let folks know (who are not aware), that I have a podcast! Other podcasts, will be on topics not presented on the blog. Oh, the delight.

Who would have guessed that VR would be on wobbly ground in the corporate learning space for the majority of verticals? I base it on a couple of observations notably that the person who runs learning products for Amazon comes from a learning system that is a content curator. I’m not seeing that.

rather it is about the virus and its impact on learning, at the corporate level and education too. Homework is another fiasco when it comes to online learning for education. Faculty will need to recognize that it is not the same ol same when it comes to e-learning. Have them incorporate these types of sites into their learning.

The reason m-learning is gaining steam are tablets, not smartphones. This will be a weekly podcast and topics change every week.

What is it about an LXP that stands out in the learning system space for so many? Is it based on finding a system with solid skill sets, lots of 3rd party content, and a different learning experience compared to what you have seen before? No, it’s not a different learning experience. What is it, or does it imply?

Surprises in E-Learning One of the biggest surprises, is that so many folks are unaware that e-learning was an umbrella term, as I noted in the History of the LMS post. On top of that, they misspell it – the term is e-learning. It has always been e-learning. Another surprise. Vendors who use it? Shame on them.
