Experiencing eLearning

OCTOBER 23, 2011

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.

Well, Share&Learn is fundamentally a collaboration platform which supports the informal sharing of links, resources etc – but one which additionally provides the ability to turn on LMS/courseware functionality within groups (to track course activity) where it is required.

The traditional approach to measuring learning in the workplace, has been to monitor and track course attendance, or online test and course completions, and report success in quantitative terms – i.e. the number of courses each individual has taken and/or completed.

We are currently aiming to achieve 1,000 students within this large complex grid by October 2011. There is a demand for motion tracking through devices such as Microsoft Kinetc and Webcams. This platform will be called Azivia and we anticipate having it launched by the summer of 2011.

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.

This can be done using Google Gears to some extent, or with the Harbinger Offline Player all the way up to SCORM compatible tracking. I've been too wrapped up thinking about interactivity to pay attention to the pains learning managers must go through for making their Moodle implementations effective. So, when I sat down to talk with Dr Asheesh Choksi, technology consultant and architect, about Moodle, he gave me a 12-point program to add value to Moodle - which was quite an eye opener.
