    I'ts great to have all of these in one place. It allows you to compare them together. Two I have looked at for use in Education are ZOHO and Huddle.

    Great add Brook! I came across this article when I was searching for a PM tool for our office. I've tried Basecamp before and I like how intuitive it is. Have you tried any of the other ones?

    Great explanation as to why you need input from key stakeholders in developing the plan.
  • cindy weaver on 19 Feb 12
     
    In the article it mentions the concept of "Work Backwards." In education, when planning, it is called "Backwards Design," beginning your plan at where you want to end up, which is usually the the state standard of learning.

    Build the community: I couldn't agree more that the initial relationship building in a project is key component for success later.

    A quick video about one successful e-learning project management approach. She includes a section for story-boarding in her process, which I think is a really cool creative step between instructional design and production.
  • Edwin Hurley on 19 Feb 12
     
    This was a great video you found Brook. I enjoyed the quality of the production, but I also think it did a great job of summarizing the total process. It actually cleared up a couple misconception I had with the process. Thanks for the post.

    Project managing e-learning. More is worse! This blog outlines some of the pitfalls that developing E-learning shares with traditional project management as well as some challenges unique to these types of projects. Some solutions are also suggested, mostly dealing with keeping your project plan agile and iterative.
  • Amber Fuhrer on 19 Feb 12
     
    Thanks for posting this article, Brook. Because it talks about elearning being software (tech) development and content development at the same time, it applies to my case study...and because it talks about training struggles, it is reflective of my own work environment too.
  • Edwin Hurley on 19 Feb 12
     
    This article brings up some valid points that I wish I had read a year or so ago. Originally I thought eLearning was simple converting F2F material for an online environment. At its basic concept it is, but the complexity of this process is much more complicated and resource intensive than I imagined. Those considering the jump from F2F should seriously consider the points of this article and the affect on their organization resources. Thanks for the info.

    Thanks, Edwin. I will use the information from this site for my case study because one of the points in the study was that the product owner was doing much more than the role of product owner.
