Corporate Trainer as Knowledge Broker

Corporate eLearning Strategies and Development

I've often referred to the corporate training professional as a Knowledge Broker.

This is likely a concerning statistic, but probably not all that surprising, considering learner behavior today. Formal, L&D-led training is still a valuable part of how workers learn — around 70% of people told Degreed they take live, virtual or e-learning courses from their employers at least once a year.

Your Lazy Brain – Finding the Path of Least Resistance

Learningtogo

I recently wrote about “ desire paths ” and learning, linking a concept in architectural design to learning design. Basically, the idea is that our brains naturally look for the easiest path to our destination, so over time users of a system will show the designers where the formal pathways should be.

Monitors with higher resolutions do allow you to have more working space in applications, but the extra screen real estate you get with a second, and even third, monitor can greatly improve your workflow. Taking that one step further is Captivate’s custom Workspaces and then positioning pallets on another monitor instead of solely repositioning them within the application.
