In the webinar, I brought up how LMS vendors were themselves perpetuating the myth of the bad things of social media (which is a necessary component of social learning), so, rather than identify the facts and data to potential clients who are concerned about social media and thus social learning, they instead do not include it in their system.

Very few things impress me, especially product claims or services. SCORM Cloud is a product that has the possibility to be a game changer in the e-learning industry. Integrate into application, future web services possibilities. Your e-learning or web portal? As far as the Mind can Go. Think social media.

Often misleading in a vendor’s pitch is that they are truly global, when in fact nothing could be farther than the truth. Many vendors service multi-conglomerates that are international, rather than companies that are based only in country x and no where else. Linkedin tied into Twitter is an example of APIs.

LMSs/LCMS/CMS/learning platforms in commercial and open space continued their presence. Some items stood out, others continued in an everlasting awful experience (customer and support service – as a whole). Kinect technology was not created at a Microsoft lab, rather it was created by a group of folks in Cambridge, England.

For vendors, they could make it happen and generate revenue. Create presentations that can be embed into a system, so that end users can not only create them, but go one step further and edit them. Most e-readers enable the end user to listen to mp3s and view other documents. Create tutorials to be viewed.

The other day, a report came out and found that the most influential consumers and buyers use Twitter. If you have the capability to offer multilingual capabilities in your LMS, clearly you can offer the same type of service on your web site. It appears in the SAAS model with some small dog LMS vendors. E-Learning 24/7.

In order for social learning to exist you need to have the following: social media plus e-learning. And, let us clear up another point: social learning is not just social networking.

One of the most irritating things I see in the market, is when a feature or service that is commonly free turns into a fee based. Especially, when it can mislead end users, who maybe unaware that the feature or service is not needed. I have seen this with a couple of vendors and thought to myself, are they kidding me?

It is what makes any product or service, aspire to new heights. I especially love it when it happens in the e-learning industry. An e-learning marketplace. You create your own courses – as you would normally do – this is not done in OpenSesame. – creating courses and selling them.

While the global economy has yet to fully reverse itself, it is clear that many vendors believe it is, or realize that potential clients have no problem paying for it. While their continues to be a slight increase in providing tech support and service for free (at least one year), the same cannot be said for e-commerce.
