  •  
    This article breaks down the stages of a project. It is an easy read.
  •  
    Interesting article, I learned something new in the section releasing the benefits. Specifically, "to gain benefits, you must have change." I know some can be afraid of change but then how does a company grow. Change needs to occur to have everything stay current and up-to date. thanks
  •  
    This was a great article since it appealed to all skill levels. Whether new to project management or a "seasoned" professional these tips could apply to all. I also like how it was broken down into 21 ways so you could pick one topic and work on that and then move on to the next if need be. A great way to gradually build better PM skills.

    Great article and how very true that traditional is going to have to be overhauled.
  •  
    I found the five trends really interesting as they fly in the face of what we've been doing in this class. I think that everything we learned has value but with such drastic changes and approaches taking place it makes you wonder if the focus we've been on is in the wrong areas?? Anyway, I also came across this for Top 10 Trends in PM for 2013 which is similar in some ways: http://www.itbusinessedge.com/slideshows/top-10-trends-in-project-management-for-2013.html

    This article really summed the ways eLearning projects can go wrong. I found the on on not meeting the needs an interesting problem. The project was either not clearly defined in the begining or the scope changed and then the direction of the project never adapted. good and inlightening read.

    Rose - Thanks for this. I learn best from examples and seeing how others approach. I love that the templates include not only instructions for completion but also "case scenario" text to give you an example of a completed form. Very helpful.
  •  
    Great site! I agree with Rose - the templates are really helpful, especially for a visual person like me. Thanks! - Christine

  •  
    Brain Rules by John J. Medina is a multimedia project explaining how the brain works. It includes a book, a feature-length documentary film, and a series of interactive tutorials. *Information in this book helps PM's to understand some of the dynamics of the human brain and to reflect on how making small changes can have lasting effects. Example - having a meeting while going for a walk or that vision trumps all other senses.*

    Interesting information.

    This is one of my favorite books. I didn't know there was a site- thanks for sharing!

8 Tips for Managing eLearning Projects Successfully | Custom Training and eLearning Blog - 4 views

  •  
    Nice general ID blog with a good number of articles about project managment in realtion to eLearning. This article in particular had some nice tips.
  •  
    I like the idea of educating SME's about the process so they understand why making last minute changes makes it difficult for us.
  •  
    Simple and concise, this article offers some sound advice on managing eLearning projects.  I love the analogy presented in the opening introduction that project management is like herding a bunch of wild cats in one direction.  It really is true that the project manager is in a position that requires them to deal with people of all different personalities and moods.

The Accidental Project Manager - 2 views

  •  
    One reason PMs fail is their desire to get the product right the first time. This site says that this is an unrealistic expectation and that we should expect to get it wrong the first time and communicate this to our team. The dynamics will change making them more open and less pressured to "make the wrong step". This approach is modeled by Microsoft which generally takes about 3 times before they get a product right. Other useful tips and lessons follow such as Less is More. An uplifting site that reminds us that it is okay to make mistakes as long as we learn from them.
  •  
    Very insightful article. The point the article made that I felt was interesting was the part about how it can be hard early on to not test what they are making. Easy to go down the wrong direction.

  •  
    There is a lot of information on this site! They could use a little help with their web design to make it a little less overwhelming though...
  •  
    I love this approach to communication! I've used in all aspects of my work and personal communications and when I really implement it has really helped me navigate some high conflict situations. It does take practice and is easier to work with if you have others you can engage with to practice the techniques.
