Notes de l'éditeur
- So welcome to this presentation (title)My name is Martin BeltonIm from mylearningworx – and we’re all excited because we’ve just launched our new system today called mylearningworx for organisations. So it’s an online learning hub designed for organisations and I hope you wont mind me talking about it at times in this presentation. In short we think it looks dead cool and its packed full of brilliant features.
- This is a piccy of the front page of the system which anyone can see and use my just logging into mylearningworx.com
- But while we were creating this system we spent a lot of time on the making sure the system really engaged with learners. And the information we discovered is really where we want to start today spent lots of time thinking of about how to really engage learners
- So this is what we are going to be talking about today (LIST)So I guess the first question is it really that important – lets play devils advocate here do we care if learners are engaged – or rather does anybody out there really believe it is that important.Well here’s a good indicator
- So sometime ago, I typed this question into Google an got lots of interesting answers of course – but here are three examples – an di promise you these are all from the first page of my search – feel free to try yourself after this webinarSo the experts are all largely agreed – learner engagement is critical to good learning content. Well that’s fine but I’m not sure that we have actually defined learner engagement is!So lets look at that question:
- Not as simple a question as you may imagine – so if you go to Wikipedia you will see it initially defined as follows (BOX 1)This is however this is a) extremely old and b) primarily describing the engagement with school-age pupils. A better definition – and still I think useful - is (BOX 2) – and I think – although is quite old – it starts to get to the point – okay its still comes from an educational source and its simplistic – and it is largely pre-internet and mostly pre e-learning. But most newer studies kind of use this as the basis to describe what can be done –and build don t form there – so Anderson and Garrison said (BOX 3)Given that why should our company’s care about such stuff? Because there is surely a big gap between this and organisational effectiveness?
- Not a new thing – educational; establishments got very excited by it back in the 90s when they first saw IT coming over the hill
- This is interesting because the vast majority of these points refer to the nature of the content. Actually I believe this is a major contributory factor why so many people in the learning community have ‘issues’ with their LMS. Certainly whenever you tune into any webinar, attend a conference or whatever the message is unremittingly that the LMS is the enemy of all learning
- So that’s was the premise with mylearningworx – a system where you can easily conglomerate content and present it to the general public. The background concepts of the system also meant that it is inherently ‘engaging’ But when we wanted to produce a system which could be used really effectively by organisations we wanted to stick to our principles and make sure that it was something that really engaged with the learners
- Crowd source development – this is not something we are going to charge for in terms of bespoke development – we just want really good feedback!So we are going to be contact
