eLearning vendors (those that design custom courseware) are often handed the course to be built. So the vendor scopes it out and does the design work, the storyboarding, the development work. But the bottom line is, the vendor needs to butter their bread and produce what the client has asked for. Evaluation complete.

These lie in their creativity, knowledge, understanding of instructional design techniques and their experience. Why should companies go with e-Learning vendors when rapid e-Learning tools are available? Have the e-Learning vendor create the first few custom programs. I completely agree with this.

I check em out on line in the name of professional development -- see what all the other vendors are doing. On the other hand I guess you could be speaking metaphorically - Im learning more, and faster, interacting with the blogs than I got in my actual degree! Or rather, Ive never been mandated to take an e-Learning course.

Someone got to my blog the other day by searching on “what’s the difference between learning designers and instructional designers?&# It was an inane comment that really didn't make the leap from my brain to a blog comment page.

And, hey, many e-Learning vendors are vested in the "old boomer" model of training. Its also a bout using blogs and wikis and other collaborative tools for workplace learning and knowledge sharing. Thanks for being a great blog book tour “stop.&# Its primarily what pays my salary and keeps my company in business.

I'm in the middle of getting all worked up about it in a series of blog posts (including this one about Guitar Hero and learning ) and have been thinking how learning might benefit more of a multi-disciplinary approach. Extend this even further to the business weasels at the vendor / service agency. Thanks for this.

There’s no vendor who creates Moodle per say. jay 1:47 AM Our Blog said. At least you have a choice of vendors to do the work. The healthy stack of features (the sum of the features in all of the legacy clientelle further bloated by new stuff) carried by most of these vendors may be what folks think they need.

Some of these discussions about tools is similar to the arguments that the main stream media has made about blogs and wikis. The tools are democratizing the learning process (in the same way blogs did for information) and giving the capability to the front line people and removing the friction that the formal learning departments create.
