What’s new
and cutting edge in e-learning? Who’s creating new forums
for sharing knowledge, who’s offering innovative ideas,
and what are those ideas? What content development approaches
and innovations are the most promising from a long-term perspective? How do you evolve from an electronic classroom model to a highly interactive, immersive learning environment?
To answer these
questions – and many others – Gary Woodill has
compiled a 200-page report that tackles 42
of the most promising ideas, innovations, and content formats
in the field of e-learning.
 Many new content formats and technologies are coming on stream that greatly improve the online learning experience. As this research report documents, more than 50 content formats and more than 80 new technologies will significantly impact e-learning in the near future.
As a kind of encyclopedia of the new approaches,
Emerging E-Learning Content 2009 takes these 42 trends and breaks each one down to explain where they came from,
what theories underpin them, and where they’re likely
headed in the future, all told with Gary’s enthusiasm
and knowledge of learning from a broad perspective.
This updated report isn’t about corporate
practices versus academic realities. Instead, it tackles the
wide diversity of e-learning content to get at the meaning
behind each delivery method or practice. It’s a smart
guide that spotlights the insufficiencies of “e-learning
1.0” and provides answers to some vexing problems
presented by e-learning.
The top 42 emerging content trends are profiled
one-by-one, with plenty of hyperlinks showing examples to
lead you down new paths. It also includes an extensive collection
of bibliographic information that everyone involved in learning
can use as research material. In addition, all of the 300+
organizations profiled in the report are listed in the appendix,
with contact information for each.
Emerging e-learning is not simply mixed with "face-to-face" learning to form blended learning. Rather, all learning will become multi-channel learning. So, add it all up, and this report becomes a handy guide to the next
five years of e-learning development. Academics, professionals,
and the just-plain-curious will all be well served by learning
about the cutting-edge trends that are changing e-learning
adoption and practices.
This report is also available through
a subscription to the Brandon
Hall Research Library.
