We are very excited to announce the arrival of another blogger on the Litmos scene! Although I'm not going anywhere, we decided there was a need for a fresh perspective and voice of expertise to mix it up a bit and we've found our guy. For many he will need no introduction, but for those […]
I've been sending a few Litmos clients over to the iSpring Solutions website lately to make use of their very cool PowerPoint to Flash converter and eLearning Authoring tools. These guys were part of the DevLearn09 Expo so I saw them there strutting their stuff. If you haven't checked them out yet, they're definitely worth […]
There have a been a lot of great reviews, summaries and reflections on the DevLearn09 conference that took place in San Jose, California in the second week of November this year. I've been saving a bunch of the links to blog posts / articles / video and thought I'd post them all here in one […]
I finally found a moment to read through some of my notes from DevLearn09 and found a mobile learning e-book recommendation from Judy Brown. The book is 'New Technologies, New Pedagogies: Mobile Learning in Higher Education', edited by a group of faculty from the University of Wollongong in New South Wales, Australia and it is […]
Last week I attended the DevLearn09 conference in San Jose (California) and I had a ball - not often you can say that about a conference!

I learned a little more about the Merrill Lynch pilot mobile learning program (called GoLearn) that was so successful a few years back. The pilot involved 2100 Investment Bankers and the course created was focused around compliance content. It was rolled out on the BlackBerry with the necessary design configurations, and the results that came […]
Over at the Social Learning Camp I heard some good tips from Mark Oehlert on using Delicious bookmarking within organizations as a way of creating a knowledge base and a culture of knowledge sharing. The idea that you can turn a solitary action in to a community action is pretty cool. Meaning, instead of people […]
Presented by Aaron Silvers and Mark Oehlert in the Social Learning Camp, I knew this topic was going to be interesting. The discussion started with a question, that was never really answered. In fact, as suspected this whole topic is pretty airy fairy because in order to measure social learning, you have to first […]
Mark Oehlert is running the Social Learning Camp at DevLearn 2009 and I just attended his session on 'The Big Three of Social Media / Social Learning: Fear, Control and Trust'. Here's a few takeaways from his talk which surrounded corporate culture and their objections to adopting social media, why they exist, and how to […]
Lectora's master class on "Creating Engaging e-learning Content for your eLearning Courses" was very interesting. It's a cool authoring tool, here are some of the highlights: Nice page transitions Cool roll-overs Pre-built flash objects to customize Hot spot assessment questions Course can finish with a form object to enter user details and produce certification Over 250 course […]
I just sat in on Judy Brown's first session on mobile learning in the Mobile Learning Jam area. This session was an overview on what defines mobile learning, current uses and the future adoption of this technology. One thing Mobile learning is not: "It is not about shrinking a course down to a little screen". In […]
So I arrived in San Jose this evening and managed to meet up with a few DevLearners at the Fairmont Hotel and head out to dinner. Not sure exactly what happened to our Peruvian dinner group, but in the end there were just the three of us - Steve Nguyen, Darrin Hayes and myself. Great […]
