Brave New Media
Effective e-Learning requires more than using technology to replicate the routine
of the classroom. It requires creating true learning experiences that activate,
inspire, and teach remote learners. This presentation shows some of the simple,
practical techniques that clever organizations are using to invent new forms of
training. See examples of learning games, virtual show of hands, global role-playing,
stealth education, e-consultants, online-guided tours, cyber-museums, and other
innovations you can use immediately in your projects. Along the way, you will
see how to overcome the myths of e-Learning that confine designers and limit success.
In addition, you will see how to make e-Learning an essential component in your
knowledge management effort.

- Best Practices
in E-learning Design (60 minutes, PDF 327 K)
How do you tell good e-learning from bad? How do you evaluate course offerings
and developers’ portfolios? Are twirling 3D logos good? Is video necessary?
What are the hallmarks of successful e-learning designs? Does effective e-learning
have to be expensive? And, what different forms of e-learning exist to meet
your varying needs? This presentation will show you examples of good (and
bad) e-learning. Bill will guide your exploration of a variety of highly
effective e-learning examples. You’ll walk away a more informed designer
and consumer! - Best Practices
in Simulation Design (90 minutes, PDF 3.5 MB)
How do you tell good from bad simulations? Is a 10-minute screen capture
of someone performing a procedure an adequate simulation? Do effective simulations
require lengthy development and expensive media? How “realistic” must
the simulation be? Can an entire course be designed as a simulation? Bill
will answer these questions and take you on a tour of dozens of examples
of effective (and ineffective) simulations built in a variety of popular
tools. You’ll walk away a more informed designer and consumer! - Best Practices
for the Virtual Classroom ( 75 minutes, PDF 954 K)
How do I design and deliver instructor-led e-learning? What forms of collaborative
learning activities work? How do I design brainstorming sessions, role-playing
activities, team-design activities, polling questions, and discussion activities?
Which activities should be synchronous and which asynchronous? In this presentation
you will see a variety of examples you can use in your own efforts. Plus,
you will get tips from an the author of Designing Web-Based Training on how
to plan, prepare and deliver effective training in the virtual classroom.
