Applying the e-learning curve in the corporate environment

May 30th, 2008 · No Comments

In applying the concept of the conventional learning curve to the context of modalities of corporate learning, we find that the curve provides an appropriate structure for illustrating where how these modalities are used. For example, in the lower part of the ‘S’ bend of the learning curve - representing a new hire for example [...]

Learning curves and the corporate environment

May 29th, 2008 · No Comments

In their seminal 2001 white paper Powering the leap to maturity: The eLearning ecosystem, Pat Dillon and Chas Hallet suggest a useful interpretation and use for the traditional learning curve, and introduce their concept of the e-learning curve. They assert that emerging technology has changed the focus of corporate learning systems from task-based, procedural training [...]

Salasaga: an Open Source E-Learning IDE

May 29th, 2008 · No Comments

I recently authored a series of posts on developing e-learning content using an open source environment where I investigated the potential for creating and delivering e-learning using either free to use or freely available content authoring applications. In that series, I deliberately excluded mentioning tools to enable the capturing and post-producing demos and simulations, [...]

Fundamentals of learning curves

May 27th, 2008 · No Comments

In the introduction to yesterday’s blog post, I alluded to the axiom that ‘practise makes perfect’ - the concept that the acquisition and improvement of new skills, knowledge or expertise are broadly predicated upon the learner’s facility to rehearse and become more proficient in the tasks or activities being practised.
