possible previously?
• Insight: Does the technology provide insights into
learner performance or behavior that are not available
using existing methods?
• Safety: Does the technology allow skills to be practiced
in a safer manner than currently available methods?
• Scalability: Does the technology allow performance to
scale or to be constantly available?
• Compatibility: Is the technology compatible with your
current systems, the organization's culture, and the
desired learning goals?
• Innovation: Does the emerging technology truly provide a
new and unique way of solving an organizational problem?
