The same IBM report estimates that every dollar spent on e-learning returns thirty dollars’ worth of productivity

selon un sondage auprès des apprenants edX, permettrait d’augmenter ses perspectives d’emploi : 43% ont déclaré que les cours ont contribué à faire progresser leur carrière. Pour autant une étude du MIT – Harvard indique que seulement 5% des inscrits vont jusqu’au bout de la formation et la valide, et que 9% suivent plus de la moitié du cursus. En chiffre, la plateforme se vante de 10 millions d’apprenants, de plus de 1265 cours, de plus de 110 institutions prestigieuses dans le monde, de 34 millions d’inscriptions aux cours, avec un âge moyen de 28 ans. En pourcentage, 25% des apprenants seraient d’USA (une réponse au coût élevé des universités américaines), 11 % d’Inde, 4% du Royaume Uni, 4% du Brésil, 3% de Chine.

les MOOC semblent avoir trouvé un système économique non lucratif mais autonome pour démocratiser et ré-imaginer l’éducation

Mais les détracteurs du MOOC ne sont pas du même avis. Annie Vinokur, dans « La normalisation de l’université » soutien que le développement des MOOC dans les années 2010 est concomitant de la hausse des frais de scolarité dans les universités américaines, et qu’in fine, elles banaliseraient l’enseignement et donc les métiers auxquels elles préparent. Selon le sociologue Jérôme Valluy, dans l’entretien « Un ersatz de prestations pédagogiques… », les MOOC tiendraient plus du marketing académique que de la pédagogie numérique, et ne seraient qu’une version low cost de l’enseignement : « Le danger est de créer des illusions : faire croire aux étudiants qu’ils accèdent par les Mooc à des universités prestigieuses. C’est du marketing qui confine à la tromperie. Ils n’accèdent qu’à un ersatz de prestations pédagogiques de ces universités et les certifications qu’elles délivrent ne valent pas, au regard des employeurs, les diplômes délivrés sur la base de formations principales ». Ainsi, les opposants au MOOC craignent que la réduction de coûts par la diffusion en ligne se fasse au détriment de la qualité des contenus et que la généralisation des cours en ligne aboutisse à une mise en concurrence des facultés dans un contexte de restriction budgétaire. Ils se méfient de l’accès différencié à l’équipement informatique ainsi qu’au risque d’isolement des étudiants.

top learning companies spend 50% more of their learning budgets on technology than the average organisation.

In 2012, the proportion of training budget allocated to technology increased from 18% in 2011 to 20% in 2012.

25% of organisations are now developing mobile apps for learning, an increase from 20% in 2010, with 30% of organisations encouraging individuals to use their own devices to access learning opportunities and 31% providing learners with mobile devices.

68% of those organisations are using social learning to build networks inside the organisations; 55% to support learning generation and sharing of user generated content; 54% for individuals to communicate in real time; 51% to reinforce formal learning and 49% to support personal professional development.  

learning was not seen as a management priority by 53% of organisations surveyed in 2012,

he lack of knowledge of potential use and implementation remained the same, as the 2011 figure at 62%.

The global HMI market in the automotive industry was valued at USD 388.3 million in 2015. These investments are anticipated to expand the market for automation solutions, including HMI solutions that monitor continuous flow of information related to plant operations and processes. In addition, the rising purchasing power of the middle class in developing countries, such as India and China, may lead to the establishment of new automotive plants in these nations. These factors will cast a positive influence on the automation systems market during the forecast period.

1) Automate the Recording Process to Make It Effortless

The University of Massachusetts Lowell has an opt-in policy for lecture capture. Faculty log in to a website and select which of their courses they want to record. The Department of Instructional Technology then schedules the lecture capture appliance to record the lectures for that course automatically, and creates a link in Blackboard or on a website where students can go to retrieve the lectures for viewing.

The university uses Echo360 lecture capture appliances and some Sonic Foundry Mediasite appliances

While lecture capture appliances are "not cheap," according to Lucas, they reduce the complexity for faculty and staff. "We're weighing it against going into a room to fix a computer issue because of drivers not working and it's not seeing a camera and it's not seeing a document camera," said Lucas. "With the appliance, it basically runs 24/7, and for the most part it's pretty rock solid."

Campuses with large-scale deployments generally focus on lecture halls first and gradually expand to smaller classrooms. For those that have a mix of appliance-based and software-based systems, they tend to place the appliances in the large lecture halls, where they can get a bigger bang for their buck, and use the lower-cost lecture capture software in smaller rooms.

You have to think about which rooms are really good candidates for lecture capture, and those are typically middle and large classrooms. We focused our efforts on the classrooms that are what we consider the large gateway classrooms,"

People learn in different ways, but as visual beings, video is a great mechanism to illustrate soft skills, as well as aid performance management. This makes it cost effective both in terms of financial savings and minimal impact on employee productivity

Video training courses or observation recordings can also be created as needed, making it a responsive and reactive tool.

build a customized library of training tools, which can be referred back to and viewed multiple times by any number of managers and employees across a company, for as long as it is relevant.

Much of this investment is directed at tools to harness video, new mobile learning apps, and an explosion of content marketplaces. Today, any employee can browse through content from Coursera, Udemy, Udacity, or a dozen other providers and instantly access a lecture, course, or workshop on a needed skill. Such platforms offer learning opportunities at little or no cost and even allow employees to interact online with experts in the field—learning exactly what they need, when they need it, at a time that fits their schedules.
