I’m very excited to be going to TechLearn for the first time! And it’s in New Orleans!! The main conference runs from September 17 to 19. More information here. Will you be there?
I’m teaching two sessions on September 18. Descriptions below.
Engaging Social and Blended Learning Experiences in Adobe Captivate Prime (10:30AM)
Want to know what’s new and unique in Adobe Captivate Prime? This session will take you on a tour of Prime’s fluidic course player and new social learning features. Join Katrina Marie Baker to learn how the new features can support your blended learning program. We will cover:
- How Adobe Captivate Prime allows learners to share web-based and user generated content on topic-specific discussion boards
- Ways learners can create their own videos, audio, and screenshots directly in Captivate Prime
- The new social learning browser add-in that allows learners to share web content easily
- How the fluidic course player helps you deliver a variety of content on mobile devices and web pages outside of the learning management system
(If you’re interested in this topic but can’t join the conference, check out this recording of a similar virtual session.)
Successfully Implement Your Learning Technology Platform (2:15PM)
Congratulations! You’ve selected the perfect learning management system (LMS). Now what? Join Katrina Marie Baker in this 60-minute session for a lively discussion and some amusing war stories from past implementations.
This class will cover how to:
- Complete your implementation so smoothly that executive leadership is in awe of your project management skills.
- Avoid common pitfalls that cause your implementation to stretch out longer than originally expected.
- Work effectively with your LMS vendor to determine a timeline, set expectations, and get everything done on time.
- Assemble an administrator team that is excited, knowledgeable, and well organized.
(If you like this topic, you might also be interested in this recording of a similar virtual class, and this LMS implementation task list.)
Hope to see you at the conference!
Agree. Could you please clarify what you meant by “SME coverage?” Thanks.
This sounds like a great event. Next year, I hope.
Won’t be able to attend, but one of these days I need to get into a discussion about how the social piece would scale. Its already hard to get SME coverage, so I’ve been trying to think it through. I hope to learn from the example of others.
Do you need SMEs for all of your discussion board topics, or are you mainly looking for people who can moderate rather than validate content? I think the SME strategy really depends on how much of an “expert” you really need.
