The Learning Circuits Big Question for May is: How do we need to change in what we do in order to address learning/performance needs that are on-demand? This is about envisioning the path ahead while the landscape changes with every step. We all know that, in today’s world, change is a constant companion.

It is true that much of this change is not budget cutting so much as budget re-allocation, but the result for the traditional, centralized training department, is the same. However, tools change with amazing speed, and if you are not adapting to the latest, you’ll be left behind. Don’t become too aligned with any single technology.

In a world as ever-changing as today’s, it is frankly the height of hubris to assume that all problems can be solved by a few heads, but that is effectively what many organizations persist in doing. The problems facing struggling Fortune 500 companies are often similarly complex, yet few if any are utilizing a crowd-sourcing model.

McGoldrick described an approach to evaluating training that wasn’t just about changes in learner behavior but about learners integrated with and interacting within their own workplace. The title was “Expanding ROI in Training Programs Using Scriven, Kirkpatrick, and Brinkerhoff,” which sounds pretty academic. But it wasn’t.

However, with the passing of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), that’s all changed, and there is now significant financial incentive to adopt — and properly use — an EHR system. Up until now the effects of these failed implementations have amounted to little more than lost opportunities.

Of course, the person “next to you” might just as often be consulted via email or other online tool, but it doesn’t change this fact: the amount of workplace learning done in formal training sessions is a tiny fraction of of the learning that takes place one-on-one, between coworkers. That’s why this post from Frank Noschese is so great.

In my last blog post I wrote about leveraging the Law of the Few to manage change in the workplace. Sure, these are great tools, but how do we utilize them effectively to change how people learn in the workplace or at school? It may be too early to know for sure, but mark my words, these tools will change the learning landscape.

While we may like to believe that directing and guiding our learners to new understanding is the most effective way to educate, the traditional Instructor-Led Training (ILT) model fails to recognize that our learners have changed. So how do we best provide our learners of today with the best possible support and encouragement?

Innovation has always been a group activity. Ideas spawn from earlier ideas, bouncing from person to person and being reshaped as they go.

Some of my favorite passages are as follows: As the situation is now in terms of game-changing use of technology, we are asking faculty to take on all the risk of change, but without the effort to make that change work. It is like encouraging faculty to use automobiles in 1910 at a time when there were no roads to drive on.

It is a drastic change from the old system, but it is relatively straightforward and self-contained, making it a good candidate for an eLearning module with an online assessment. Then when the time comes much later to apply what we learned, we can’t quite remember what to do and need help.
