Notes de l'éditeur
- Now, if this job was traditionally supported by a combination of technologies that could help content exchange across the organizations, those approaches are nowadays limited by the dynamic nature of knowledge. Indeed, if knowledge input is dynamic, we need a dynamic publishing strategy to effectively distribute it to the right people in the right moment. This is what we call content personalization, and this is what we call Dynamic Publishing.
- Implementing an effective, sustainable learning content lifecycle requires, among the rest:an effective workflow definitionan agile project managementa template-based content development processsome sort of content tagging and classification mechanismefficient asset management policies
- And I think we are also well familiar with the form that a similar process takes in our organization. The one presented in the picture is only and example of a simple, very linear collabroative learning content production workflow, but those who work in eLearning consulting must have seen (and possibly designed) tens and tens of such workflows.
- And finally, I think we all agree on the need to support each component of the process with the appropriate technologies and tools, among which we must here underline ability of LCMSs to empower the overall content production, management and distribution process in any learning organization. This must be a given nowadays. You can question on which solution best fits your specific needs (and budgets), but no one today questions the importance of having an LCMS solution at the core of any training and learning processes.
- So the question is: how can I leverage my Learning Content Management solution in order to implement an effective learning process?A process that will support the complexity and nuances of my learning objects offeringA process that will efficientlyleverage the interoperability of my core content production with any of my target LMSsA process that will support, when required,new media and pedagogies (such as mobile learning, but this is just an example), in a much more sophisticated manner than traditional ePublishing mechanisms.This is what we want to talk about today. And to do so we tried to identify the three key steps towards an effective content personalization strategy. Those are listed in current slide and are:Templates-based content productionReal time renderingLCMS-LMS integrationBut before doing so we have a couple of polls we would like to submit to the audience to understand your opinion on what we just saw.
- So, let us start with first step in content personalization with eXact LCMS.
- Here we can see an example of templates-based content production where, starting from an initial learning design and its implementation as flash-based learning objects targeting web based training, a further attempt has been done to extend the templates set in order to support new media and devices.
- In the example we can see a learning unit originally designed for desktop learners, leveraging the potential of flash technology to assure a high level of interactivity. This sample includes video and audio synchronization, highly interactive menu and exercises, instant feedback on the progress of the learner across the different pedagogical situations included in the learning unit.
- The same templates set may be extended to content can be repurposed through
- That was about template-based content production. But how can this be extended to the concept of Real time rendering?
- For those of you who want to know more about real time content rendering we have this "simple" sketch describing how a learning package run-time creation happens in eXact LCMS. Jokes apart, I know this is quite technical, but pls bear with me 60 seconds and I am sure most things will be clarified.So, in point 1 on top right corner of the figure we may see the learning package we suppose to have created through the process described previously. Now, let us assume this package was created some time ago, and a new learning needs emerges in our organization, requiring some update to this and other tens, possibly hundreds of learning unites also stored in our repository.With traditional publishing technologies we would need to open each of those packages, apply changes (either manually or applying updated templates) and publish brand new versions on the repository. In worst cases we would then need to update each package instance on every single LMS or portal we use for learning content delivery. A true nightmare.Real time rendering is about applying those changes once, at rendering engine level, and have them applied live to each package the very first time it is accessed for review or delivery purposes (this is what is represented in points 2 and 3 of the slide). If the changes applied in the rendering engine are safe, we can consider the rendering template (point 2) good to go.In reality, we might produce multiple run-time rendering templates, each addressing a specific need (in previous slide we made the example of users demanding content compatible with accessibility guidelines, specific mobile devices, corporate brands or more interestingly their own knowledge and skills.Well, runtime content personalization is exactly this: providing each learner the appropriate piece of knowledge, personalised according to her or his specific learning and content needs.
