If I find something useful, I like to share it with you. This is a wrap up of some of the articles I read last week:

This is a great tool for anyone that wants to know more about Twitter and especially how it could fit in with learning.

Discovery learning is a fabulous way to engage learners and improve retention. This is well worth signing up to get the white paper.

Evaluating e-learning. This is a great, high-level model for measuring the effectiveness of an e-learning program. I like this as a starting point but I think any training organization should think about how each step is implemented for them. Define those and they have some actions they can take. But this model would be great for any team to start their e-learning evaluation process.

This is a great case stated for the effectiveness of formal learning. I see so many organizations get impatient with the time and resources formal learning takes and try to ditch it for informal, or peer-based, learning. That is very frustrating as a learning professional because we know exactly what is going to happen. Heck, we could probably plot the results out on a calendar for them.
