Our daughter wants to be an animator. She will be going to university or college next year and has been checking out various computer animation and digital media programs. Interestingly, none of these programs really care about the applicant's computer programming skills. They are looking for talented and creative artists. They will help them hone these skills and then teach them how to channel them appropriately in a digital environment.

Update June 2008 - added one free flash quiz tool based on a question I received. This tool is listed at the bottom. A client wanted to create online quizzes that would live inside of a larger site. They didn't really need tracking of user responses, instead they wanted them to be fun. I suggested a couple of tools, but then wondered if I had given them the best list of tools.

Customization is crucial for an effective LMS strategy. A one-size-fits-all approach no longer works for diverse and dynamic organizations. Customizable LMS platforms allow tailored learning experiences that meet specific company needs, boost user engagement, and seamlessly integrate with existing systems. Customization also supports scalability, adapting as an organization evolves, ensuring long-term investment value.

Phil showed a simulation, which you can view here. while talking about the development process and how it was designed to give specific feedback based on learner interactions with the simulation and how the simulation dealt with "failure." He talked about building an environment in which people interact and make decisions while receiving realistic feedback such as a change in the attitude or tone of voice of other characters within the simulation.

Fair play to Richard Naish in November’s e.learning age – he has the poke to write about the impact of the “cult of the amateur” in an article provocatively called “Monkeys typing” (as in get enough monkeys typing for long enough and eventually Hamlet will be reproduced). Essentially he laments the trend of the diminishing status of the expert as user-generated content becomes more prevalent under the general trend that is Web 2.0.

For a person who I generally think is pretty smart Thomas Davenport (his book Thinking for a Living is generally quite good), I find him saying some pretty weak things. A couple months ago, I took him to task in Thomas Davenport and Blogging - He is Wrong! In his book he tells us basically that blogs have detracted from productivity, not increased it.

As I read November’s Accountancy magazine, I was pleased to see Tracy Gordon, who I used to sit next to 10 years ago at Deloitte, has become famous enough to write an article about the latest Companies Act. I enjoyed that it was more apocalyptic than the usual articles about Financial Reporting…and there may be some significant impacts on accountancy firms, especially those in the mid tier.

With the increased interest in reskilling and upskilling existing workforces, companies are looking for more training and development content and realizing that higher education has a lot to offer. Similarly, companies are finding value in providing training to students and preskilling their future workforce. The challenge is that the technology and platforms used to serve these two audiences have never had to work well together—until now.
