Are you curious to know what the future of mobile learning looks like? Come and see for yourself! It shouldn’t come as any surprise that the momentum of mobile technologies hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down. After all, more people than ever before – 2 billion, in fact – are constantly head-down, tapping away on their touch-screens, messaging friends on Facebook, sharing selfies on Instagram, or working on big projects over Slack.

We’ve all been there. You’ve been given a pile of dry content and asked to create a compelling eLearning course. You’re determined to create something more engaging than the same old course that learners quickly click through, but how do you take this “boring” content and create something relevant and engaging? Many instructional designers will say, “Boring in means boring out.

In the struggle to ensure that your organization is booking profits and your employees are happy, you make sure that your employees get trained. You read right. Many facts and data point a correlation between profits of the organization to employees training and personal growth in the organization. A natural outcome of training is increased rate of retention and decreased rate of attrition of employees.

Yesterday I wrote about examples as stories. And I received a comment that prompted some reflection. The comment suggested that scenarios were stories too. And I agree! They’re not examples, but they are stories. With a twist. So, as I’ve said many times, simulations are just a manipulable model of the world. And a motivated, self-capable learner can learn from them.

What makes a great eLearning strategy? There’s no simple blueprint guaranteed to work; but there are recurring themes. The reality of L&D programs is that training needs to be repeatable, scalable, and uphold learning standards. Simultaneously, programs are often more engaging when personalized to the learner. Striking a balance between these demands can be a challenge.

Team success is often dependent on cohesiveness and progress towards a goal. When teams meet in person, natural roles tend to emerge as teammates are able to relate to each other on an informal basis. However, virtual teams often depend more on a successful team lead to ensure success when there is not an in-person familiarity. Leading a virtual team has its difficulties, but is an important skill to learn in this increasingly digitized world.

By: James Bassendine. At its best, digital learning serves as a catalyst for the movement of knowledge, ideas, and practices across borders. But how do we describe the places where this knowledge exchange actually happens? We’ve long used the same few metaphors: platforms, ecosystems, channels. None of these terms are adequate to the actual experience of learning in digital and collaborative environments.

For long, organizations outsourced services expecting to reap the benefits of decentralization—namely, speed, agility, and cost-efficiencies. However, many pure outsourced operations risk devolving into siloed functions with opaque vendor governance and inefficient administration. Before the sourcing organization knows it, their L&D is beyond their control.

More and more, organizations are recognizing how soft skills in the workplace differentiate great employees (and businesses) from good ones. Author Peggy Klaus summed it up well when she said: “soft skills get little respect but they will make or break your career.”.
