For example, if you build rapid elearning courses with Articulate products there are all sorts of resources available to you: Articulate’s Facebook page keeps you up-to-date on news and information. Many organizations have their own tools like blogs, wikis, and discussion forums. It’s hard to keep up with all of that.

You might want to check out Bernice McCarthys 4MAT work at [link] She uses a sort of mashup between left/right brain thinking and Kolbs learning styles and creates a cyclical approach to teaching that attempts to present things to impact all learners.

Many did not grow up using print encyclopedias and dictionaries like many older (some Gen X, boomer, mature) workers. So then I ran across a decent article that I read through and thought I should buck up and revisit the things that make Google such a large part of my life. YouTube Remixer allows learners to make video mashups.

I find my best time for thinking up excellent blog entries is late at night when Im lying in bed. I picked up the same tip from Michele, and while I havent used Jott to blog, its a terrific way to "write" a note to yourself without endangering too many other drives. Now Im trying to maximize my time on the drive to work.

Hodgepodge of social media components – albeit the extensive and main one – social networking with a FB, Linkedin components in there, and of course a blog – thankfully no pure micro-blog like thing nor wiki (A congrats on that one, btw). Extensive API and Mashup directors for you to pick and choose from. Bottom Line.

We’re not talking about “dressing up&# content to fake that it’s engaging. Production costs have dropped – we can start adding a lot more media/engagement to our programs. Mash this up with the chat and you practically have the whole session. SO glad you picked up on that. 30-90 seconds.
