Since I'm not allowed to post the article let's just say that it contains the views of numerous experts. I hope that people find it an interesting read.Andrew Passhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03467297626934604339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22055982.post-6385992120772839282007-07-16T03:57:00.000-07:002007-07-16T03:57:00.000-07:00When I was with government a few years ago, I trie...When I was with government a few years ago, I tried to push away from eLearning towards an 'Integrated Learning Deployment Model' that considered that a performance solution could be delivered using any channel:<BR/><BR/>- Paper based support materials<BR/>- Structured OJT<BR/>- Live / Virtual Live<BR/>- Self-directed<BR/>- DVD based EPSS<BR/><BR/>I listed probably 30 - 40 examples of combinable methods. Everyone in the organization agreed / agrees that we needed to get away from considering eLearning as an isolated solution. <BR/><BR/>The model hasn't taken hold yet. Outside of government, my former coworkers are now customers. Still working to gain traction this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22055982.post-5882638872647836132007-07-15T10:21:00.000-07:002007-07-15T10:21:00.000-07:00Tony: After all these months of blogging about lea...Tony: After all these months of blogging about learning, I'm now thinking all the terms (elearning, etc) are too vague. I hope in begins to connote people who are pushing content with no sensitivity to learners or evidence-based assessment. When we know the learner, start from their understanding, work with their processes, etc -- I suspect we will speak of "realized insights", "expanded capabilities", "new questions", "active explorations", etc--instead "earning".Tom Haskinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12658791778134826289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22055982.post-74362425444333876462007-07-14T08:47:00.000-07:002007-07-14T08:47:00.000-07:00I also like multi-channel learning.
