eLearning Outsourcing: Training Companies Turn to eLearning for Survival & Growth | Ups... - 0 views

  • The common theme emerging from these meetings is that their clients have started asking for eLearning solutions or blended solutions. As an owner of a small training company said –“My clients could have stopped training last year and I could have been in big trouble” (his actual statement). Resonating but with a different tone some of bigger training companies mention –“We need to consider eLearning to maintain our leadership position and avoid losing clients. It helps make our offerings more competitive in the marketplace. It also helps us appear more progressive offering all possible options of training delivery.” (my interpretation of their statements)

The Semantic Web cometh | Upside Learning Blog - 0 views

  • The information age is rapidly turning into an age of information overload. A simple search of the web using a search engine like Google reveals a fantastic array of information. As I’ve discovered given the thousands if not millions of results, trying to sort through and make sense of any of that data is an exercise in futility. This sort of rudimentary search and pray approach isn’t effective, and grows more ineffective by the day with the growing size of the web. Why can’t it be easier? It can – Web 3.0 or the Semantic Web holds that promise.

Casual and Serious Digital Games for Learning - Some Considerations | Upside Learning Blog - 0 views

  • There are pronounced differences between casual and serious games. I’d like to delve a bit deeper into differences I see as being more important when deciding which way to go. The differences between casual and serious games seem to lie squarely in two domains: Instructional Outcomes, and Use of Technology.
  •  
    The technology used by either category of game also tends to vary considerably. Typically casual games are built on internet based technology platforms, predominantly Flash; whereas serious games tend to be custom developed for specific platforms to run as applications. While the outcomes and technology differ, there is a link between the two. Quite simply, the need for sophisticated technology is proportional to the type of performance outcome the learning is aiming for.
