It’s so simple: record your class on video. In cases where the content is more complex and follow-up is necessary, why not combine the video with formative exercises? My point is, under the right circumstances, video can provide effective instruction. An online discussion forum? A buddy program?

I think no better example of our evolution is a little video clip that we produced to combat the aforementioned spectre of the ineffective meeting. With this in mind, I can see why CJ’s favourite Air New Zealand safety videos work so well. It works because it’s true. For example… • Leadership.

360° videos. Whereas Gear VR has the wood over Cardboard in relation to 360° photos, I maintain the reverse is true in relation to 360° videos. On YouTube, all you need to do is click the little goggles icon in a 360° video to render it Cardboard compatible. Uber annoying!! Implications for business.

360° videos. Strangely, 360° videos don’t work on my iPad. I also find the videos a little blurry. The good news is you can record your own 360° videos using special cameras that are reasonably priced IMHO. These are just like 360° videos, but they’re static. These are great!

When I need to find out how to perform a particular task in a particular software program, I strongly prefer text-based instructions over video. Now, if only video was available and I weren’t such a diligent employee, I might postpone the task or forget about it all together. But that’s not the point. Would you read it?

As we embrace informal learning, we will rely less on e-learning modules in favour of alternatives such as social forums, job aids, games, and indeed, interactive videos.

Employees learn in all kinds of ways – from reading a newsfeed or watching a video clip, to playing with new software or chatting with colleagues over lunch. I have argued previously that in the modern workplace, we should informalise learning and formalise assessment. The question is how to manage all of that learning.

We can even make it more enjoyable to view in the form of videos or podcasts. If it’s eInformation / eReference that’s needed, that’s fine. We can make that more visually appealing and easier to read on screen. Where the real learning takes place is in the analysis of the material in relation to a specific work-based problem.
