Challenge to Learn

MAY 7, 2014

Here is my recap of the Washington ASTD ICE 2014 conference. This was my second ICE conference (did Dallas last year), it was huge and it was interesting. The trends where workplace learning and informal learning. This is the main trend I see at the conference. But I did love this conference.

It does seem like there isn’t much formal learning about accessibility happening though; most of the responses were for various kinds of informal learning. Blogs: 14%. Informally from coworkers: 11%. Conference presentations/webinars: 7%. Posted in Accessibility, Informal Learning.

The trending topic today is informal learning! This learning trend is a huge part of the future of e-Learning because it has tons of benefits for those who encourage it at their organizations. One of the reasons informal learning is so successful is because it provides freedom for learning—whenever there’s an opportunity.

The 1999 Online Learning conference in Los Angeles was ground zero for eLearning. Yet at the ASTD Conference six months later, dozens of vendors claimed to have eLearning. I fear that charlatans and dummies are taking informal learning down the same road. An Informal Learning Sequel? No, no, no.

There’s been a great deal of discussion over the last few years related to informal learning. Today, just about any training magazine, website, or conference probably devotes significant time to talking about informal learning. It’s an excellent resource for learning about informal learning approaches.

I didn't even know what to ask.

During this period of maximum hype, the new concepts become incessantly repeated buzzwords that are routinely slotted into conference presentation titles, blog posts and social media jottings. Seeing the negativity around the word, people stop using it in the titles of articles, blog posts, and conference presentations.
