The new era of workplace learning. This is the second of a two-part article that looks at the emerging trends in learning tools and workplace learning. In this part, Jane Hart, a Social Business Consultant from the Centre for Learning & Performance Technologies – www.C4LPT – and a member of the Internet Time Alliance , looks at the future of workplace learning and the implications for Learning & Development. In Part 1 of this article I discussed the annual survey of popular learning tools that I have been running since 2007, I reviewed this year’s Top 100 Tools list, and I also identified four key trends in this year’s list, as follows: Increasing consumerization of IT - i.e. the increasing use of personal tools and devices in the workplace Merging of learning, working and personal tools Dominance of social tools Personal (informal) learning is under the individual’s control In Part 2 of this article I want to take a look at the implications that these trends have for the future of workplace learning.

March 2, 2008 at 5:05 pm | Posted in Uncategorized | 3 Comments Tags: e-learning strategy Things change quite quickly in my workplace – one of the things the L&D team are looking at is boosting our capabilities in the e-learning space. I mentioned a few posts ago that we purchased Lectora, this is part of our e-learning strategy. Below is an edited presentation that outlines where we are heading with our e-learning plans.

We have a lot of work to do but the possibilities are huge and the benefits for the business exciting! So Lectora training is in a week’s time – we’re also about to launch a diversity initiative that has an associated website. At the moment it’s just a one pager created in our Red Dot system. My plan is to hopefully secure a Sharepoint subweb and use podcasts and blogs as a means of interacting with our employees in AU.

This course examines contemporary theory and research on the development of intellectual processes from infancy through adolescence. It compares cognitive-developmental theories and research to psychometric, information-processing, and other approaches. The final project, the metahobby project, fosters the student's ability to think theoretically and apply good theory in professional and personal ways. This child development course aims to explore several of the major points of view currently influential in the field of cognitive development.

It also examines implications of these various perspectives for the education and socialization of children. The emphasis is on theory in the conceptualization of intellectual change processes. Please note that the course as presented here does not contain the full content of the course as taught at Tufts. AirPlay Mirroring to a Mac (no Apple TV required) Update: Reflection has been renamed Reflector. It is available for Macintosh and for Windows PCs. I am so excited for a new Mac app called Reflection! It shows my iPad's screen live on my computer screen wirelessly! In the past I've used different ways to show iPad's screen on a projector to an audience. I've used a document camera, a Point2View webcam, Apple's VGA adapter with an old-fashioned VGA switch, and an expensive Ephiphan VGA2USB signal grabber.

All of these past methods require iPad to be stationary. In an effort to keep iPad truly mobile, some educators are using Apple TV to mirror iPad's screen to a projector. Wireless mirroring to Apple TV is made possible by AirPlay, a feature of iPad 2 and iPhone 4S. As someone who travels, it's not ideal for me to carry around an Apple TV and VGA adapter and hope that I can set it up on the network at the school or conference.

Finally a Mac app has been released that does what I've been wanting. Student devices can be mirrored as well. TED-Ed | Lessons Worth Sharing. Story People Home. EMI.

Top 10 Universities With Free Courses Online. #1 UC Berkeley Ranked as the #1 public school in the United States, Berkeley offers podcasts and webcasts of amazing professors lecturing.

Each course has an RSS feed so you can track each new lecture. For printable assignments and notes you can check the professors homepage, which is usually given in the first lecture or google his name. Even though the notes, homework and tests are not directly printed in the berkeley website, as they are in MIT and other courseware sites, it's not a problem to find them.

By Fabio Sergio - June 15, 2012 Smartphones and tablet computers are radically transforming how we access our shared knowledge sources by keeping us constantly connected to near-infinite volumes of raw data and information. We enjoy unprecedented instant access to expertise, from informal cooking lessons on YouTube to online university courses. Every day people around the globe are absorbed in exciting new forms of learning, and yet traditional schools and university systems are still struggling to leverage the many opportunities for innovation in this area.

Recently frog has been researching how learning models are evolving--and how they can be improved--via the influence of mobile technologies. We’ve found that the education industry needs new models and fresh frameworks to avoid losing touch with the radically evolving needs of its many current and potential new constituencies. 2.

I was asked yesterday what I considered to be the four components of effective digital learning. (Why four? The person who asked me wanted four, there may be more but this is the parameters I was given.) The question intrigued me. The focus was a little bit to do with tools to use for learning, but also pedagogy was an underlying core. So I have pared down my four core elements, but I have embedded these in a number of underlying assumptions. The underlying assumptions are core values and processes that enable Digital learning to flourish.

A relevant and contextual curriculumAssessment that is both challenging and transparent (since this lies in a relevant and contextual curriculum, it is also by definition relevant and contextual)An emphasis of higher order thinking skills (analysis and evaluation – creativity is a core aspect of Digital learning)Valuing student voice and providing the students with ownership of their learning and assessment.
