VConnecting is a connectivist learning movement [5]. Using synchronous video technology, VConnecting hosts informal conversations between people who are attending academic conference onsite and people who are unable to attend. These conversations are livestreamed and recorded. We call these “hybrid conversations” since we seek to give equitable weight to onsite and virtual participation. VConnecting's purpose is to extend the onsite conversation, allowing the marginalized voices of those who are not present to participate (such as adjuncts, unaffiliated academics, graduate students, parents of young children, people with health issues, Global South scholars, or others who cannot regularly travel to conferences), while also allowing those who cannot attend an opportunity to network and learn from those who are present.

What we have learned about IEHospitality in hybrid spaces can be useful to other learning contexts. For example, those of us who teach online making aspects of equity and hospitality explicit within online group work, helps to prevent many of the common problems students face [15]. What volunteers learn and practice in VConnecting often transfers to our teaching and professional practice, a reminder how we can benefit greatly from using online learning techniques and technologies in our own learning first. In addition, buddies often gain social capital of their own through greater communication with each other and with guests who are often high-profile academics.

After all, with laptops, students can, in some ways, absorb more from lectures than they can with just paper and pen. They can download course readings, look up unfamiliar concepts on the fly and create an accurate, well-organized record of the lecture material. All of that is good.

But a growing body of evidence shows that over all, college students learn less when they use computers or tablets during lectures. They also tend to earn worse grades. The research is unequivocal: Laptops distract from learning,

Measuring the effect of laptops on learning is tough. One problem is that students don’t all use laptops the same way.

The global eLearning market was worth an impressive $107 billion in 2015 [1]. By 2025, however, Research and Markets believe that it will reach a staggering total market value of $325 billion [1]. The reasons for this explosion in value come on the back of several main drivers: the need to educate vast numbers of people at low cost, the falling price of learning solutions, the needs of the modern workforce to engage in life-long learning, and the fact that learning through an internet portal is often more convenient than going to school. The majority of the growth in the eLearning market will come from demand in developing countries.

2. The Self-Paced eLearning Market Will Decline To $33.5 Billion By 2021

77% Of US Companies Used Online Learning In 2017

Instructors were specifically trained for corporate audiences in order to further strengthen impact. What we lacked was sustainability, which is necessary for ensuring that the learner grasps the material and is able to apply it successfully in his or her work. Only then would training truly result in improved quality of work and long-term benefits for the organization. Here’s an example of how to use a video-based platform to reinforce training and achieve these long-term benefits.

The main objective of training is for learners to apply new skills in the long term. The key is to reach out in a way that is appealing and involves the learner. Technology-enabled learning has made this level of engagement possible, and with the emergence of new technologies, it will continue to do so in fresh and innovative ways.

Les modules e-learning et autres vidéo learning portant sur les métiers sont aujourd'hui bien souvent conçus et réalisés « sur mesure », en interne ou sous-traités au prix fort –le plus souvent entre 1000 et 1500 € la minute– par les services formations. Ce coût peut être fortement réduit grâce à une solution de type Rapid Learning qui permet par exemple d’exploiter les présentations Powerpoint déjà créées par les formateurs ou les experts. Le poste d’achat peut même disparaître si les contenus Rapid Learning sont produits en interne, ce qui n’est pas hors de portée.

Revenons à cet expert de terrain et permettons-lui désormais d’utiliser son smartphone (BYOD : Bring Your Own Device) et les « Apps » qu’il contient pour capturer des vidéos (un geste technique, un court dialogue), de l’audio (commentaires sur vidéos, podcasts), mais aussi pour monter et « travailler » ces vidéos, ou encore générer un quiz de connaissances.

L'intégration du e-learning dans notre dispositif de formation a généré un gain de temps et d’efficacité incontestable…  et incontesté ! Ce qu'on peut constater par le niveau de satisfaction de nos collaborateurs, et l'augmentation du nombre d’heure de e-learning chaque année : près de 6.000 heures de e-learning diffusées sur les 5 premiers mois de cette année…

nous réservons le e-learning à la transmission des connaissances ; lesquelles sont complétées par des formations présentielles et relayées par la hiérarchie.Nous avons opté pour une stratégie de formation simple, claire pour tous, bien adaptée à Euromaster : des modules e-learning déployés avant ou après une formation présentielle pour acquérir les bases ou entretenir un savoir…

Increase social learning An overwhelming 98% of companies want to support the sharing of good practices and knowledge across teams via in-house social networks or functionality. Social learning aids training by making it a shared activity among contact center agents. Adaptive technologies such as chat boxes, forums, and Slack can reinforce critical learning concepts for agents while on the job. This is also key because employees tend to be more successful when they work and learn in group settings. This type of setting provides motivation, promotes team camaraderie, and improves an agent’s ability to learn and perform.

This year, the five annual predictions for the global learning and development sector from Financial Times

1. The return of the middle manager - While much focus has been placed on leadership skills and the "voice from the top", the under-appreciated and often-maligned middle manager will come back in vogue and be recognised for an increasingly rare yet innate ability: managing other people.

2. The death of authenticity - It is often said that if you can fake authenticity, you’ve got it made. In 2018, many more managers will stop trying to "be themselves".

“The flip model of learning offers a considerable cost saving opportunity to learners as well as educational institutions. Many institutions are using LMS to facilitate the delivery of content to the users. Although end-users have to make substantial upfront investment in the required infrastructure such as adequate Internet bandwidth, the long-term benefits of flipped learning considerably outweigh that of traditional classroom teaching and training,”

Global flipped classroom market by product Software 54.89% Hardware 33.54% Services 11.56%

The global flipped classroom market by hardware was valued at USD 165.9 million in 2015. The hardware segment comprises devices such as document cameras and tablets that are required to create, capture, and access learning content. These devices are finding more acceptance in schools and colleges. Lecture capture is used to facilitate learning for both students and teachers and helps in recording and delivering lectures in multiple formats including text and video. Vendors are equipping hardware with advanced features for lecture capture such as high-resolution video and display to improve quality. The devices used to facilitate lecture recording include microphones, cameras, screen capture devices, desktop recorders, DVD players, electronic whiteboards, and videoconferencing devices.

The analysts forecast global flip classroom market to grow at a CAGR of 37.47% during the period 2016-2020. One trend to watch for is the advances in lecture capture technology. Vendors are improving the features and functionalities of lecture capture technology to popularize it in classrooms. With the help of this technology, video lectures can be created in HD quality by combining inputs from live cameras and computer screens. These lectures are interactive, as they include options like touchscreen, tagging, and content editing.

Flipped learning is a hybrid model that combines aspects of traditional learning and blended learning. This model encourages students to take technology-aided lectures outside of the classroom through videos and simulations. Lessons taken in advance by students allow the classroom time to be allocated for group activities and handling subject related queries, resulting in enhanced student performance. Educational institutions are deploying flipped learning models by installing lecture capture solutions and delivery solutions such as LMSs (learning management systems).

Par Jean-Roch Houllier et Mourad Larab, de l'Université de Thales, à propos d'une "fabrique d'objets de formation" nouvelle manière, initiée par le Digital Learning Innovation Manager, pour accélérer le rythme des innovations pédagogiques et la "mise sur marché" de solutions répondant toujours mieux aux besoins des métiers et des salariés de l'industriel.

Voici à peine quelques années, les plateformes LMS (Learning Management System) étaient essentiellement dédiées au support de la formation distancielle : assemblage des parcours e-learning, diffusion massive et adaptation locale auprès de vastes populations d'apprenants, contrôle et reporting sur le suivi des parcours e-learning par les apprenants (notamment : temps passés et notes aux évaluations).

les entreprises les plus expérimentées ont appris à matcher les médias et dispositifs avec les spécificités de chaque problématique de formation. Mieux encore : les ressources e-learning sont de plus en plus souvent proposées en self service à leurs salariés dans le cadre de leurs apprentissages informels ou sociaux. Le e-learning devient ainsi un élément clé du support à la performance individuelle et collective : cette tendance est appelée à bouleverser les pratiques de formation dans les entreprises étudiées.

C'est sans doute l'un des prochains grands chantiers du e-learning : celui de la mise en place d'indicateurs de suivi et de performance, une étape clé dans la généralisation attendue du e-learning.

Quant au "learning", on peut compter sur la mobilité pour remplacer le lourd cartable empli de livres de classe par une tablette ou une "liseuse". Steve Jobs s’interrogeait, à juste titre, sur le fait que la formation initiale reste un domaine aussi peu touché par l’informatique depuis 50 ans, malgré des bénéfices potentiels évidents…

Une séquence de micro learning dépasse rarement quelques minutes… Dans le domaine de la bureautique, par exemple, elle ne saurait remplacer la formation de 2 ou 3 jours délivrée aux débutants… En revanche le micro learning pourra convenir à l'utilisateur qui a simplement oublié une fonctionnalité particulière

un quart des sondés évoque l’e-learning comme en cours de développement,

60 % des sondés voient dans l’enseignement en ligne une méthode certes utile, mais en corrélation intime avec le présentiel. Cette mixité entre les deux formes d’apprentissage, couramment dénommée « blended learning », emporte ainsi l’adhésion majoritaire ; une tendance confirmée pour l’éducation nationale, où 52% des sondés approuvent l’utilisation du numérique à l’école, mais de manière limitée, sans remettre en question le rôle de l’enseignant.

Seul un noyau dur des sondés (22%) maîtrise sans problèmes les notions de « MOOC », de « serious games » et de « TICE ». Un tiers est en revanche incapable de placer une définition sur ces concepts, alors que près de la moitié des sondés possède des connaissances à propos d’au moins l’un des termes

Hype and expectations for AI are now sky high

on one hand the hype is far ahead of the reality; on the other, the upside could be much bigger than we think. And in HR the opportunity for value is massive.

The systems can understand speech, identify photos, and use pattern matching to pick up signals about mood, honesty, and even personality. These algorithms are not “intuitive” like human beings, but they are fast, so they can analyze millions of pieces of information in seconds and quickly correlate them against patterns.

1. Human relationships are so much more important than the technology

2. Technology alone will never revolutionize education

Education is changing (albeit slowly) whether we agree with the changes or not, and you can either learn to change or gradually get pushed aside Change keeps coming. I know that significant changes in education occur at a snail's pace, but that may be a blessing. Yet things do change. For example, Western Governors University has been delivering Competency Based Education for decades. That's a big deal in the world of higher ed. We all know that online learning is more embraced year over year. Flipped Learning continues to spread and be embraced. Change is happening. Don't ignore it. We tell kids that they need to embrace life long learning. So do we. And administrators at all levels need to stay informed and be part of the conversation as we think about and plan for tomorrow.

La mobilité et le mode collaboratif sont de plus une nécessité pour les entreprises avec le partage des données dans le Cloud.

Dans cet environnement, le digital Learning est le canal d’apprentissage qui convient

L‘expérience utilisateur se simplifie grâce aux chaînes de formation qui s'inspirent de la plateforme « Netflix » et aux centres d’intérêts par « mots clés ». Le catalogue de formation doit s’adapter en continu aux évolutions des usages et aux besoins opérationnels des lignes métiers - vers la curation des contenus. D’autre part, le style d’apprentissage doit être proposé avec différentes modalités pour répondre aux attentes du moment de l’apprenant : Vidéo, Livre, Audio et la mise en pratique avec des exercices
