Google Docs is where I keep track of my time spent on projects, create quick drafts, and other tasks. This is the fifth year that Jane Hart has been collecting lists of top tools for learning. The list will be finalized on November 13, but you can see the ongoing results in this list. I have contributed my lists in 2007 , 2008 , and 2009. You can contribute your top tools too. As in 2009, I’m going to divide my list into personal learning and course development. Personal Learning.

As I get back on track, it’s time to start blogging in earnest again. We’ve gone from attending eLearning conferences to mLearning conferences; it’s just around the corner from mLearnCon 2011. It’s been a trying time of the year; erratic schedules, vacations and finding time to introspect has meant I’ve not blogged over the last month or so. As mobile computing becomes mainstream, it is worth thinking about the nature of learning in the future.

Learning only takes place in a classroom or in a course delivered from our LMS, where we monitor and track it. We use lite tracking to ascertain useful resources. We will set up an internal social network so that we can track all the discussions that take place and make sure people are contributing the right stuff & learning from it. People need to be trained to do their jobs, and we need to keep track of it to make sure it is happening.
