Disrupting Learning: In Three Parts
This is a short video series, each around 5 mins long, looking at disruptions in L&D. Firstly, some basic concepts. Secondly, some examples of 'what good looks like'. Finally, an explanation of learning and a new approach to learning design.
Thank you! Very useful. Part of the task as well for those that work at places where everything needs to be monetized and everything should be billed back to the client, is to convince them that this way can be profitable as well. Selling learning - ie videos and classes delivered in a traditional way is the old model but seems to be what gets bought into. Creating a whole structure of resources, on demand and otherwise, (ie. job aids, context sensitive help systems, et al,) is seen as a resource waste because it is believed that it can't be monetized or that if the customer hasn't specifically requested it then it is not needed. And yet, I have been the recipient of these requests numerous times. It always gets turned back to 'Well they just need more training'. It is short term thinking really.
Wonderfully useful as ever, Nick.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the process of applying the central idea here in my role as Head of Design at City Year UK.
Many thanks!
So honest and true. I have struggled with creating learning content that either makes management happy or actually insures employee success.
