How can we accredit micro learning in an open world?
When showing learning results make sure the charts are readable.
When creating your leading strategy you should analyze the learning needs within a certain learners profile.
Learning solutions that spark, are designed for Instruction, and follow a process from analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation.
The blackboard made training efficient but not effective.
Unlocking the true potential of your human capital, demands a solution that goes beyond training. A complete Learning Solution facilitated by training but enriched with communication and on the job practice, moves a knowledgeable workforce to an experienced one. When an individual processes something, there’s no guarantee that the interpretation they receive is sufficient. And to effectively address that takes either interaction with other learners or an expert during synchronous learning. A survey in The Career Architect Development Planner (McCall, […]
Colour plays an important, but secondary, role in recognition. A red apple and a green apple seem at first to be identified by colour. But both red and green apples are identified first as an apple, and only secondly by colour. The initial recognition is of form: this is an apple, not a banana, not a kiwi, not a pear. We see a red apple because, the colorant of a red apple absorbs all wavelengths except red. Only the reflected red […]
Most action movies follow a similar structure, better known as the Hero’s journey. It became popular after star wars, and is based upon the works of Joseph Campbell and his book The Hero with a Thousand Faces and refined by Christopher Vogler in his book The Writer’s Journey. This type of story telling is pretty usefull when building elearning modules.
Combining the ideas of great presenters, can help in building a story that people remember.
Today we see a loads of content centric resources that establish cognitive learning. It is a good start when the content is story driven supported by meaningful graphics, as a story is the educational value of 1000 pictures, and a picture is like 1000 words.
Sweller (1988) distinguishes between three different cognitive loads. Intrinsic Cognitive Load (IL) is the effort associated with a specific topic. Extraneous Cognitive load (EL) refers to the way information or tasks are presented to a learner. And, Germane Cognitive Load (GL) refers to the work put into creating a permanent store of knowledge, or a schema. if cognitive overload takes place, then learners will be more likely to make errors, not fully engage with the subject materials.
7 years ago I created my first Advanced eLearning thanks to Adobe Captivate 5. It was a PowerPoint presentation enhanced with user interaction. Adobe Captivate 5 enabled me to quickly produce flash content with the ability to add action scripts and variables. A year later Articulate Released Storyline that dethroned Captivate out of my toolbox. It seemed that Adobe fell a sleep and their innovation was reduced to a catch up race with the competition. Until the great event of […]
