They said it "sounded more real" and they trusted it more because they knew this person was talking from experience. My argument is that if the information is presented as 'real' conversation it is more believable, more engaging and ultimately more effective. Did it sound likea pro narrator? It's the content, stupid!

Or is it substituted by other tools (how effective?)(web How simple and effective is that eyebrow raise? And how effective is that substitution?

They have become adept at incorporating flash animations, pdfs, PowerPoint presentations, audio-visual material and any number of other techniques for getting training messages across to users in effective and imaginative ways. This sounds like a bit of an overstatement to me. How adept are these SMEs really getting?

Weve taken this up before and many of us IDs know the strategies for using audio most effectively by now. More recent research has indicated that the way the sound is used is significantly important. This applies particularly where text and sound are likely to be used (notably the studies on PowerPoint and speech).

Barry Sampson responds, [This approach] presupposes that the templates are instructionally sound in the first place: In reality I doubt that any templated approach is likely to be instructionally sound. My response to Barry, hmmm.well I suppose I agree that a template, in and of itself, can not be instructionally sound.

I tried to make more effective use of audio. That said, I think the rubber duck idea sounds great. Kudos on your work - it sounds great and a lot like giving birth.

It is probably more accurate that such instruction is effective because the multiple illustrations induce learners to devote more time to these concepts. Im interested in your background -- it sounds like your experience is in the classroom. Theres an important distinction to make between "learning style" and "instructional method."

Together, we could be a very interesting and effective team. It sounds like you need a Montessori School for Instructional Design. Sounds like you got a bit burned by an underqualified employee -- as you said perhaps more personality than degrees. They often have Ed. What have I learned from this experience? 12:32 PM home said.

I would explain a bit about SL and the general response was, "that sounds interesting." If SL has this effect on other women, then it wont be the most effective place to send female employees as part of an elearning experience. However, ideas taken from Second Life, minus the cultural trappings, could be effective.

Or you can contract with a company like Kineo that can host and support your Moodle for you (at the risk of sounding like a company shill!) Just build something simple and effective for, say, a particular program that's a good match for open source L(C)MS feature set. Sure they can. It’s not for corporate use.

Some of these discussions about tools is similar to the arguments that the main stream media has made about blogs and wikis. I think we need to be careful that we dont become elitists, thinking that as trained ID, we are the only source for sound instruction. We can talk about the training-wheel versus guard-rail effect.)
