E-Learning development houses need to be able to demonstrate a clear value in their services. 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.

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. I hate when people see it as only Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin. Do you have a Facebook account? M-Learning Tool – 9%.

Many in the education market are still in love with open source systems, such as Moodle. Facebook like page with profiles — snooze-ville. Google apps – free for education – as long as you follow their specific guidelines. That said, this has become the norm in these systems. What are they using?

Vendors were saying, lets “wait on those&# or “our customers are not requesting them, so we are holding off&#. Social learning? If they were doing it, Facebook like page, a crummy blog that looks nothing like a real blog, a Twitter like feed, maybe RSS, text chat and YouTube functions and upload/download angle.
