Recently a number of great folks I know in the L&D field have indicated they are working on a book. Writing a book is a great experience. Writing helps me clarify thoughts, focus my ideas and explore content. The writing process connects concepts in my mind together in deep meaningful ways. For a variety of reasons, I think everyone should write a least one professional book.

I am always on the look out for interesting implementations of niche specific learning management systems. There are ones centered around language learning.

One of the most successful self-help learning programs I have come across is Headspace.

A few posts ago, I wrote about how we might be rushing too fast into cognitive computing. Not that there’s anything wrong with augmenting us, but I was wondering if we’d be better off focusing on developing our non-cognitive systems first. And, of course, it occurred to me after a conversation that there might be another example of this ‘tech fix before smart fix’ problem: adaptive learning over good design.

As you get started with video, you might hear intimidating, super-technical sounding terms like frame rate. But what is frame rate and why does it matter? The Video is a Lie. At some point in your childhood, you probably came across one of those cool little flip books that showed you how animation worked. Essentially, it was a series of still images (one per page) that, when you flipped the pages quickly, would appear to animate or move.

Assessments are a very powerful training arsenal – they help track learners’ proficiency and measure the effectiveness of training programs. They test the knowledge and skills of learners; they help training managers understand the areas of reinforcement and reiteration. More importantly, they help organizations assess cognitive, affective, behavioral learning, and also business results.

When you are developing an eLearning course, you don’t typically think about persuading your audience. But, persuasion is not only for marketing and sales professionals, it can also be used in eLearning design! F acts and concepts alone won’t significantly change the way your learners think, do, and feel. The trick is to get to know and apply the most effective persuasive strategies to move your audience’s intention into a desired behavior change or action.

The other day, I was working on a presentation. I was trying to come up with a way to add a logo and few icons into PowerPoint. But there was a problem. The images all had different background colors, and I needed them to all have a uniform look. Maybe you’ve been there too. You have a logo, icon, or other image that you’re trying to design with, but you need to remove the background of the image.

GE CEO Jeff Immelt made waves when he announced in late 2016 that every new GE hire–whether they’re in marketing, product design, programming, operations, finance, or any number of the tech giant’s departments–would learn to code as part of their onboarding process. But why? Isn’t that why you hire programmers? But as we sleep, wear, and live tech on a day-to-day basis, coding and programming have become as important as knowing how to use email.

I remember my first mobile phone: brick-sized, big antenna and weighing around 400 grams. Then I got my first clasp phone and it seemed tiny and awesome. My current phone is slim, light and wonderful. My first computer was a Pentium 3 and took almost all the dorm table. You can already see where this is going – laptop, thinner laptop, tablet. Truth be told, if we aren’t talking about living space or virgin forests, smaller means progress.

These snippets of information are immensely useful to the owners of the websites they’re pulled from.
