The eLearning modules act as the “lecture”, which learners do on their own time. The now-common blended learning practice of assigning one or more eLearning modules prior to attending classroom training is similar to the Khan/schoolteacher model.

Mobile learning should be a fast, easy user experience where learners can access a “robust library of content” and communicate with others. They are the epitome of a just-in-time device. So why not utilize these JIT devices for the JIT learning that we now demand as a society? Jim: Glad you found the post helpful, Jeff! Properly d.

There are many elements of games and simulations that, when designed effectively, can help our learners achieve a state of flow: rich back stories and characters, compelling plotlines, and that delicate balance between something that is difficult, yet still achievable.

At first I couldn’t think whether I actually applied how training was delivered to these different types of learners. Again there was a group for each type of learner.

The gist of it was that even though we have an enormous amount of tools available to enable social learning across far reaching boundaries, the self-study type of eLearning seen in so many workplaces today can potentially cut learners off from any type of social interaction during the course of the learning.

I’m not saying it’s the end-all, be-all for LMS but it may just engage a few more learners that would normally have shut the training, or their brains, off. This takes nothing away from the fact that millions of people use Facebook, are comfortable with Facebook, like Facebook and may prefer to learn using Facebook. Properly d.

Just as the corporate world thought they had caught up to adult learning norms with the adoption of eLearning, and some with blended learning, along comes social learning.

Just as water will always find its own level by the path of least resistance, individual learners, working in collaboration and unhampered by the precepts of authority, tend to do an excellent job of finding and sharing what they need to know efficiently and effectively, even if they don’t necessarily know what they are looking for to begin with.

What if we could customize training programs for each learner using adaptive software technology? The former is expected, the latter is currently a daunting prospect in most learning situations.

When it comes to eLearning, accessibility for all learners is crucial. Learners who suffer from sensory, intellectual or technological difficulties will need assistive technology to successfully access and complete their training courses. Active learning is a strategy focused on encouraging learners to actively participate in training.
