Institutions find success by developing online programs in-house rather than outsourcing | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

 Agile training at Jurys Inn – used AI to produce in minutes not months | Donald Clark Plan B | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Online learning has traditionally been a rather slow in design and production. We can now use AI in WildFire to create content quickly, to produce agile learning and data that allows us to adapt to new circumstances. I may have used the word 'Agile' too often here but it captures, in a word, what is now necessary. The days of seeing online learning production as some sort of feature film project with matching budgets and timescales – months, should be re-examined.

How Blended Learning Today Is Different In A Hyperconnected World

How Blended Learning Today Is Different In A Hyperconnected World | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

With access to the world’s information, industry experts, and instant connection to professionals inside our organizations and around the world, learning can happen continuously, on-demand, and in the moments that are most important to us. For these reasons, it’s important to reframe what blended learning today means. No longer does it mean supplementing formal learning events with additional materials, before and after a program. The whole thing has been flipped and our role, as L&D and the purveyors of formal learning, has become supplementary. So, how do we refocus? And how do we add value when our interventions are now periphery experiences in the context of employee development and performance?

"If a dissertation rolls off the presses, and no one reads it, does it make a difference? It’s a quandary no freshly minted PhD wants to ponder. Yet the longform research typical to disciplines like English, history and sociology can be difficult to share and find online."

Where did it all go wrong? Professor Elavor* just wrapped up what she hoped would be a successful semester of her new online course—Introduction to Natural Sciences. Unfortunately, the course ended with a giant thud.

Successfully Apply Social Learning to Your Existing eLearning Programs

Successfully Apply Social Learning to Your Existing eLearning Programs | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Your organization no doubt sees the value of an eLearning program. You may have invested in a user-friendly Learning Management System (LMS), on-demand training and the necessary number of developers to create sufficient content.  However, your results may not be what you expect if you don’t add a human touch to eLearning. You need to incorporate a social learning component.

Social Learning Theory was coined by Albert Bandura in 1977. Among its key components are the ideas that learning must be active and that it takes place in social contexts. This theory also espouses the view that learning occurs when people observe others.

Want To Create Interactive Moodle Content? | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Recently there was, what could have been, a fairly benign thread posted on the Moodle forums about how to create more interactive lessons. JP, the thread originator, was simply looking for a way to bring a little more life to the Moodle experience.

As can be expected from the Moodle community, there were others who immediately dove in and offered help and ideas – specifically by looking at all of the features available in the lesson module. However, JP was looking for something even beyond this.
