In the previous Downright Sneaky Lectora® Tricks tutorial, we created the devMode variable in Lectora®. Today, we’re going to provide a way to turn it ON and OFF. Turning devMode ON and OFF Now that you have created your devMode variable, you need a way to toggle it ON and OFF. My own methods for toggling devMode have evolved significantly over time. Initially, I just set the Initial Value of the devMode variable to 1 so that it was ALWAYS ON during course development. When development was over, I changed the initial value to 0 to turn it off and republish. After a couple of close calls, I decided to make the entrance to devMode hidden so that if I forgot to turn it off, it wouldn’t be noticeable to students. We’ll do the same: we’ll use a transparent button to turn devMode ON and OFF. How to add a transparent button to toggle devMode On the Insert ribbon, click the Button drop-down list and select Transparent to add a transparent button to the page. Rename the button devEntrance. Position the button out of the way but in a spot where you can find it without trouble. Select the action for devEntrance button and, in the Properties ribbon, apply the following settings: Trigger: Mouse Click Action: Modify Variable Target: devMode Type: Set equal to Value: 1 Now your invisible button can turn devMode ON! Make the button turn devMode OFF too Right now, the devEntrance button turns devMode on, but what if you want to be able to go back to the regular mode? You should be able to turn the variable OFF too. How do you do it? You COULD make a second button to turn devMode off (I did at one point), but tell me… do you use ONE LIGHT SWITCH to turn your lights ON and ANOTHER to turn them OFF? No, you use a single switch that toggles between ON and OFF. What we need is for our button to do DIFFERENT THINGS in DIFFERENT situations (turn OFF or turn ON). This is where you apply CONDITIONAL logic, which means adding an IF to your action. Here’s how the logic works… When you click the devEntrance button, IF devMode is OFF, turn it ON. Otherwise, IF devMode is ON, turn it OFF. Still with me? Here’s how we program that logic into the action. Select the action for the devEntrance button and, on the Properties ribbon, click the Conditions button (which currently displays the word Always). The Set Action Conditions dialog box is displayed. Select the following settings in the Set Action Conditions dialog box: Variable: devMode Relationship: Equal To Value : 0 What we are saying is that IF devMode is OFF (0), then run the action. The action, of course, will be to turn it ON (1). Click OK to close the Set Action Conditions dialog box. The Conditions button now displays IF (instead of Always) because you have made this action conditional. The final step is to specify what happens when our IF condition (devMode = 0) is NOT in effect. The only way our condition can’t be met is if devMode is already ON (devMode=1). In that case, the action we want is to turn devMode OFF (change devMode = 0). Click the Else Action button (which currently shows No Action) and select Modify Variable from the drop-down list and enter the following settings in the Properties ribbon: Target: devMode Type: Set Equal To Value: 0 Now your button turns devMode on AND off. Make sense? Feel free to test it out… the only problem is that devMode doesn’t DO anything just yet, so you won’t see any difference. This is plenty for today. In part 3  of this Downright Sneaky Lectora Tricks tutorial, we’ll add a devMode indicator to make sure it’s working.

    Now that we’ve popped the cork on 2016, we’ve also had some time to reflect on this past year. After all, 2015 did see a plenty of new technologies and solutions bloom while others faded from the limelight.   The Internet of Things, for instance, crawled into schools as wearables and connected devices became less expensive. Beacon technology allows teachers to push educational materials to students’ tablets at set times. Wearables track students’ heart rates and steps as they exercise in gym class. IP video surveillance systems are being hired to improve security. The rise of 3D printing was even more meteoric. Gamification, on the other hand, lost its place, in general the future of educational technology looks abuzz with a number of innovations and breakthroughs.   Let’s discuss a few pointers which would help us understand what we have in store for the future of educational technology in 2016:   Schools should purposefully abandon things that have proved ineffective, and reinvest efficiency gains back into the classroom while planning strategic expansions. Teachers need to receive both training and professional development, only then will they understand only how to operate technology and how to use technology to provide new, engaging learning opportunities. To salvage ineffective professional development programs, schools need to redefine what it means to help teachers improve, re-evaluate existing programs and reinvent the way they support effective teaching at scale. Technology alone cannot improve education; change is a possibility only when school’s’ thought leaders bring together student-centered instructional design with differentiated training and professional development and work towards the future of educational technology as well. Educators need to teach students how to be responsible digital citizens, not only to safeguard their health and wellness but also to ensure their personal security and ethical digital behaviour. Schools should equally invest in culture & people development and in purchasing new tech.   A few technologies driving the future of educational technology would be:   3D Printing Cloud Computing Big Data IoT (Internet of Things) Augmented Reality   As we proceed in 2016, the Fedena team is already hard at work lining up our thoughts on a number of key themes, including technology leadership, training and professional development, and mobility. So check back periodically for insights into the future of educational technology.   The post Future of Educational Technology: Edtech Trends 2016 appeared first on Fedena Blog.

From guest writer: John Dalziel. I have spent a lot of time… communicating, listening and learning. Nowhere near as much as much as I did before retirement but, there is no doubt, in my mind, that the best advice that I can give anyone is to… "Never Stop Learning!" "Learn how to listen effectively" and […]

Six days per week our Lufkin HS Robotics team meets to design, build, program and learn for their FIRST robotics competition in April. Many of these kids, first time members of the team, are learning in ways that they probably could not have envisioned without this experience. Over the last few weeks, I’ve met countless alumni robotics team members who have taken their experiences into engineering and computer science majors in college, most of which would not have been possible without competing in FIRST robotics, as my community…like many, did not offer computer science as a choice and when we did, it was difficult to fill the seats with students who honestly wanted to take the course beyond beginning programming or competitive programming for UIL competition. This, of course, has led to much more in depth discussions centering on purpose and how computer science can be used to solve real problems. We’ve also had to ask ourselves how we are giving students the experience and opportunity to design and create apps centered on their interest or community impact. To change the scope of thought around CS, we are having to rethink our own course plans for future growth. We hope that with an increased emphasis on computational thinking in core curriculum and an increase in open CS experiences, that we will change that. During CSEdWeek, I attended the White House Launch and at that meeting, heard about the new NSF funded, Computer Science Principles Course. I forwarded the information to our CS teacher as the training opportunity from that would be amazing. He responded with the link to the course that he’s excited about, one that happens to be listed within the frameworks of the CS Principles Course, Mobile CSP. We’re definitely on the same page and that’s refreshing! We have much work to do in developing our HS courses over time and as the interest of our students increases (Thanks in large part to Hour of Code and after school coding clubs)…We recognize the importance of growing our course offerings to not only meet the state requirements of the STEM designation but our student interest as it is most certainly there. Just to give a bit of perspective, February 11th, we’ll engage in a district-wide STEM day for our entire 4th grade class and as the keynote speaker of that event, I will certainly be talking about computer science while also providing hands on experiences centered on "making". (Squishy circuits, Little Bits, Minecraft, Makey makey, Coding) A few days after, our grades 3-5 teachers will enjoy a day with code.org affiliates as we move forward with the inclusion of algorithmic thinking and coding into student creations in the upcoming school year and beyond. This summer, we’re offering coding and robotics as a camp for various grade levels with app development as one of our key areas. This camp will be created by members of our robotics team. It’s something that they have wanted to do for years and now they will. In addition, we are considering camps that focus on math exploration through a real world lens, science camp, media creation, Minecraft and of course a STEM/Maker camp. Moving forward, we hope that activities such as this can give students a new window into sharing what they love and are learning in truly unique ways. Getting back to the present, with our Digital Ambassadors, we are looking at how we can bring makerspaces to the classroom. Our first experience will be tomorrow with a class of grades 1-2 multiage and I could not be more excited!! On the menu? Minecraft, Little Bits and much more! Our goals are simple. We want kids to be curious. We want them to ask questions and we want them to be seekers of knowledge for no other reason than because they can’t breathe without doing it. We want them to see that their zip code doesn’t limit their explorations and that the world is here for them to create it. Every single kid.  

Despite significant investment in training programs, annual training program reuse hovers at a rate of about 50% annually, meaning that approximately half of a given company’s training portfolio is not being utilized annually. Annual expenditure and time investment on new training program development exceeds the attention placed on maintaining legacy content by a wide margin.1 This is especially problematic because old training programs still contain valuable information developed in cooperation with a company’s subject matter experts. View our Infographic for a visual journey of the Learning Content Depreciation As years pass by, legacy training content depreciates in value and effectiveness for a number of reasons: Year 1 Content inaccuracies Company statistics change, products get updated with new specs, and errors in the original content are uncovered over time. Year 2 Outdated design The graphic design for PowerPoint slides and e-learning courses tends to look dated after a few years. Year3 Training not aligned with business needs Older training programs might not be aligned with the company’s business needs and desired employee performance outcomes. Year 4 Changing learner demographics Training solutions that might work well for Baby Boomers and Gen-Xers might not be suitable for Millennials; changes in learner demographics require L&D professionals to revisit their methodologies. Year 5 Outmoded digital formats E-Learning content developed in Flash, legacy versions of rapid development tools, and in older versions of SCORM can result in non-delivery of the content over learning management systems and on newer Internet browsers.

Recently, I have had many discussions with colleagues about whether or not the primary purpose of Lean is to eliminate waste or to increase value.  I’m a proponent of the latter, where Lean is to increase value with respect for people.  Yes, in order to increase value, waste must be removed from the system, to which, my colleague says, "See, it comes down to eliminating waste.  Besides, that’s easier to understand." It was the last statement that really hit home for me - easier to understand.  He’s right, it is easier to understand eliminating waste/cutting costs than increasing value.  Most organizations are designed as cost centers, so eliminating waste / cutting costs is easy - both to measure and understand.  But just because it’s easier doesn’t mean it’s the right approach.  Too often, we simply want to take the easy way out - not have to think, not have to challenge ourselves, and just want the answer.  And I think that’s the problem with approaching Lean as its purpose is to eliminate waste. Organizations do this way too often.  They approach improvement activities as ways to reduce / cut / eliminate.  Very few ever approach improvement actions (be they Lean, Six Sigma, or Lean Six Sigma) as a way to increase or grow.  They approach they always take is to Save Money.  The approach they should take is to Make Money.  But, you see, to take that approach is much harder.  Saving money, on the other hand, is much easier.  And, as every cost accountant knows, if I save money, then I increase profits.  So, you see, by saving money, we make more money - simple (and easy); anyone should be able to see that!   And while this may be true for the short term, it doesn’t support any longer term growth. But, why is taking an approach to Make Money harder?  Well, first of all, in order to do this, you need to understand how you make money.  What are the systems, processes and interdependencies that allow you to make money?  To understand this, you need to take a holistic view and understand how your system generates revenue.  Then you need to figure out what is the limiting factor (or constraint), and how do you go about breaking it so you can increase your ability to make money (think throughput).  This thought process is very simple, and uses basic logic.  However, it is not easy.  It requires a tremendous amount of focus and discipline.  And, if your organization is divided into many silos, in can be even harder.  Focus on the areas that are holding you back.  Don’t just haphazardly apply improvement methodologies. To get the right long term results, the approach matters.  It is not simply semantics.  By taking an approach to make money / increase value, versus save money / eliminate waste, a company is better positioned to grow and enhance stakeholder value now and in the future. So, what do you want to do?  Do you want to save money or make money? Let me know your thoughts!

The eLearning industry is experiencing a revolution. There is no doubt that we are living in exciting times and that modern advancements are transforming the way we live and work. There are new gadgets, advanced tools, and cutting edge technologies that allow us to create eLearning experiences that we could only dream about a decade ago. They also make our lives a whole lot easier by streamlining development and providing us with course building blocks for eLearning. While there are myriad of eLearning technologies available today, there are 5 that will stand out from the virtual crowd this year. Cloud-based Development Tools It seems as if virtually everything is moving to the Cloud these days, and for good reason. The Cloud gives you the ability to access eLearning content remotely and collaborate with your eLearning team online. There are now a variety of eLearning development tools that can maximize your resources. In 2016, the Cloud is expected to play an even more prominent role in the world of online training, as well. This is due to the fact that an increasing number of organizations are beginning to see the cost-saving, productivity-boosting benefits of moving their corporate training online. The decision is also easier because cloud-based tools are now safer than ever, thanks to better encryption protocols and safety measures. Wearable Technology Wearable tech gadgets, such as smartwatches, have a wide range of online training applications. "Moment of need" online training is where it really has a lot to offer though. In fact, devices seem to be getting smaller and less conspicuous, which makes them even more of an asset in the workplace. Employees can quickly access the online training module, interactive manual, or online scenario whenever they need to learn more about a process or task. Wearable technology gives them the chance to take their online training with them wherever they go, rather than having to wait for the next online training session to develop their skills. Another application for this technology is geographic-specific online training for a wider eLearning audience. For example, employees who are in one region might receive completely different online training than those in another part of the globe. This means that they would automatically be directed to a different version of the online training course with subtitles and culturally-appropriate eLearning content. Virtual Reality Eyewear All of the eLearning technologies on this list have the potential to transform the eLearning industry to some degree. However, Virtual Reality Eyewear seems to be the real hot topic of 2016. The idea of simply slipping on a headset and immediately being immersed into another world seems like something out of a sci-fi movie, but virtual reality gadgets, such as Google Glass, Oculus Rift and others, are making it possible. This virtual reality technology has a variety of applications in the online training sector, such as online scenarios and simulations that are more realistic than ever. Online learners will have the potential to explore subject matter by literally exploring it. For example, they can walk through the halls of an ancient structure or conduct a science experiment without handling volatile chemicals. It offers all of the rewards of on-site training without any of the risks. The possibilities are endless for compliance online training. Health and safety online training courses would be more efficient and secure, due to the fact that employees would be able to improve their proficiency and master tasks, minus the real world danger. Automated Development Platforms Developing an effective online training course can require a significant investment of both time and money, particularly if you want to include interactive elements. However, in 2016 we’ll see a dramatic shift to automated eLearning design. More and more eLearning design and development tools are now offering pre-made interactions, graphics, and templates that can cut development time in half. Instead of having to create an eLearning assessment from scratch or build a branching scenario from the ground up you have the option to automate the process. There are even some automated development platforms that evaluate online learner progress and preferences, which offer you the opportunity to custom tailor the eLearning experience to meet their individual needs. Training Telepresence This is an offshoot of augmented reality, but provides more of a social learning atmosphere. Essentially, telepresence is a form of technology that allows online learners to interact with one another from anywhere in the world. They can carry out online discussions and collaborate remotely without any geographical limitations. This approach uses HD cameras, audio equipment, and a physical space to make online learners feel as though they are all sharing a common virtual room. For example, they might all sit at a desk in front of a screen which displays others sitting at the same desk. In many respects, it’s a tech illusion that relies on camera angles. Telepresence may also eventually go one step further with the help of Virtual Reality Eyewear, as online learners can fully immerse themselves in the environment by wearing headsets. We are on the cusp of an eLearning technology revolution. Some might even say that we’re all right in the center of it. However, to take part, you must be ready not only to discover new technologies, but also figure out how you are going to get the most use of them. Would you like to learn more about the many uses of wearable tech in corporate training?

In this day and age, everybody and their mother seem to offer online training courses. Enterprises that want to train their employees seem to be spoiled for choice, with thousands of eLearning shops and tens of thousands of available courses on all possible topics. Given this over-abundance of eLearning material, does it really make sense for a company to develop its own custom eLearning courses? Wouldn’t opting for some off-the-shelf material be the fastest and cheapest solution? Indeed, it might be. But what’s fastest and cheapest isn’t always also good for you (if it was, McDonalds would be the perfect diet). Nor does the fastest and cheapest option necessarily have the best return of investment. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. In this post, we’ll give you 5 reasons why you should invest in custom eLearning development. Starting with… 1. You know you better All those authors of pre-built online training courses have one thing in common: they are not you. They might write stuff relevant to your industry, and they might even have titles covering subjects that you need to cover in your employee training, but they know neither your particular organization, nor its particular goals. The thing is, every company is unique. Or rather, any company that wants to differentiate itself from its competition, has to be unique. Why then would you use the same training material that your competitors (or any random person on the internet, for that matter) can use? How could that ever give you an upper hand in dealing with them? At best it would make your employees equally skilled and knowledgeable as those of any other company that uses the same off-the-shelf courses. Now, that might be fine in generic topics, such as "How to use Excel", "Chinese for business" and the like. These things, (Excel, the Chinese language) are beyond your control, and different businesses are not expected to invent their own special way of using them. For anything related to your core business procedures and operations, that is, things that give you your core competitive advantage, you shouldn’t opt for pre-built material. Just like it’s a bad idea to outsource key parts of your operations to a third party (because then you’re at the mercy of your outsourcing partners), it’s an equally bad idea to outsource key part of your operational knowledge — which is essentially what you do when you use generic online training material and/or services. On top of the drawbacks of giving away control, there’s also the fact that third party content creators don’t have access to (and so can’t cover) your unique organizational infrastructure, procedures, customer base and challenges. A commercial eLearning training shop might, for example, have a course on how to administer a particular relational database, and another course on how to run a particular application server in production. But it’s a slim chance that they’ll have a course on how to integrate said database and application server in the way your company needs to. And of course they won’t know anything about several other internally developed and legacy systems that your IT department needs to maintain and integrate with these two. Still, all those are things that you’ll need to train new hires on. Enter custom eLearning development. 2. It cuts to the chase This one is a corollary of the previous point. Since, unlike a generic eLearning content author, you have first hand knowledge of your organizational structure and needs, you can target your eLearning content directly to your company’s particular use cases and business needs, trimming all the useless fat that comes with a one-size-fits-all training course. If you just need your employees to master a particular piece of equipment, or to learn to use only some very narrow functionality of the otherwise full-featured POS software your company uses, you can focus on just that. This will spare your employees from having to go through pages upon pages of stuff they won’t ever need to know, and get them to be productive in the things you need them to, faster than any generic course could ever have them. And, of course, if your needs ever grow, you can always expand your training material. You are in control. Even better, since you can customize your eLearning content to just the things you need your employees to know, you can also monitor their training progress and performance more accurately — as their testing and overall grades will not be affected by any superfluous material. 3. Some things just have to be custom As we have already pointed out, even when it comes to generally applicable training content (e.g. learning to use some popular commercially available software, or acquiring some basic industry-wide business skill), you still know your exact business needs better than any commercial eLearning course creator. But there are also things that are not and can never be "generally applicable" — things that only a customized eLearning solution can cater for. Employee on-boarding for example is something that pre-built eLearning courses are not suitable for, as it is something inherently tied to your organization and its specific structure and operations. From the welcome "message from the CEO" and the breakdown of your corporate values, to the presentation of career advancement paths and the details of using the company’s intranet resources, employee on-boarding is not something that can be relegated to some off-the-shelf course. The same is true for any business procedure, skill and knowledge that is unique to the company and should not leak to competitors. From Coca Cola’s "secret formula" and Google’s proprietary PageRank algorithm to Apple’s closely guarded software and hardware development, there are lots of things a company has to take the custom eLearning route for, since not only third party content creators don’t know about them, but they should also never learn. 4. It helps with knowledge retention Besides being in control of your training and covering just the things that you need to cover, there is also another, seldom mentioned, benefit from developing a custom eLearning solution. The process of gathering operational knowledge from inside the company to present it in the form of an eLearning course itself can help you formalize and understand your business processes and the day-to-day operation of your organization better. Problematic procedures and issues that have gone unnoticed for years have a tendency to jump right out of the (web)page at you when finally seen in writing. And even if your company has been doing everything just fine, by putting your business procedures in writing for your LMS courses, you’re helping with knowledge retention, helping capture and transfer key knowledge and techniques from your current employees in a form that can be stored, refined and reused to train future hires. This is something essential for the long term success of a business that comes for free with creating your own custom eLearning courses. 5. It’s not an either-or proposition It’s not like you have to choose between custom eLearning development and commercial pre-built courses. In fact the best course of action would be to combine both of these options, thus getting the best of both worlds: off-the-shelf commercial courses for training that’s common to your whole industry, and customized eLearning development for things that uniquely capture your company’s needs and competitive advantages. And don’t be intimidated by the prospect of doing custom eLearning course development either. Modern eLearning management platforms like TalentLMS make course creation a snap, letting you write and configure your courses from an intuitive and friendly, web-based, user interface. And, as you can incorporate all kinds of already existing material, from Word documents and PowerPoints to YouTube videos, you are already half of the way a complete course. As for deploying and running your newly created courses, that’s even easier. In fact, with a Cloud based SaaS solution like TalentLMS, you don’t even need to install or manage anything: it just works, giving you a comprehensive environment for course creation, online training, user management, and progress monitoring. Conclusion In this post we’ve had a look at 5 reasons in favor of customizing your eLearning courses. In short: it puts you in control, it lets you focus your training on what matters to you, it’s necessary for some things, and it helps with knowledge retention. We believe that the relatively more effort that you have to put into custom training translates to a greater ROI and a more competitive company — and enterprise adoption of custom LMS tools seems to agree with this.

We recently announced our latest innovation, the gomo central app, which we feel transforms traditional e-learning distribution by targeting the personal devices of learners around the world using a native app. So why are we so excited about this? Well, there are many reasons, but one of the clinchers is that by using a native app, training can take place on-the-go and in a non-traditional training environment - people can train without sitting down and thinking ‘now it’s time to learn’. Just think about how often we use Google to settle a debate in the pub or how you watch a YouTube video before tackling DIY (or is that just me?). Mobile devices are always with us and that means they can help us out with anything from quiz questions to  whenever we need them. What do we mean by an app? Sometimes e-learning courses get called apps. Sometimes content which is simply mobile ready or optimized for mobile is referred to as an app. By app, we mean that it’s downloaded from the Google Play or Apple App store just like Facebook, Whatsapp or Paypal. Having one central app allows gomo courses (which, without the app, are multi-device anyway) to be downloaded into the app for training purposes. Sometimes a mobile learning course is packaged up into an app of its own, which in many cases works well, but if you would like learners to use devices to access a number of courses, having several apps individually hosted in public app stores soon gets messy. The gomo central app will be available from the Google Play and Apple App Stores upon launch in February 2016. What are the benefits of using an app for mobile learning? A report by Flurry showed that mobile users spend on average 2 hours and 38 minutes a day on their iOS and Android connected devices. 80% of that time is spent in apps and only 20% is spent in a web browser, which puts apps in good stead for mobile learning. There’s also something to be said for knowing you have an app on your home screen which can quickly help you at work - learners might not always make the same connection with their browser as it requires some (only a little) effort. Learn without an internet connection One of the unavoidable problems of mobile learning and mobile usage, in general, is the battle for signal. With it, the world is in the palm of your hand but without it, you can’t do a great deal. A major benefit of using apps for mobile learning is the ability to get full use of an app with or without signal. Learners must first download courses within the app for offline use, but once this is out of the way, they are free to roam to the ends of the earth and they will still have their trusty mobile learning courses to help them out. Native apps provide staff with on-the-job support they need, whenever they need it. This is useful across the board but really comes into its own when you consider job roles and industries that aren’t always connected. Gas engineers, for example, could benefit from on-the-job training but the fluid nature of their role (visiting customers etc) means they can’t guarantee connectivity. By downloading courses for offline use, they can be safe in the knowledge that they have mobile learning at their disposal at all times. Keeping learning content up to date It’s one thing to give staff flexible access to learning but it’s important that learning stays up to date, especially where numbers, specifications, sales or compliance is involved. When learners go offline, it’s a worry that content can quickly go out of date. With the gomo central app, each and every time a device reconnects to the web, the app checks for updates across all courses, ensuring staff are absorbing the most relevant and up-to-date training. Tracking learning offline As with course updates, every time a device reconnects to the web after a period of offline learning, all of the app’s insightful xAPI analytics are sent back to gomo, allowing training teams to get the full picture of offline and online learning. The global launch of the gomo central app takes place at Learning Technologies 2016 in early February, with an online event taking place on February 24th for those who won’t make it to the London exhibition. In the webinar, gomo MD Mike Alcock will cover the problems associated with distributing content to devices and how the gomo central app can help you to overcome them.   The post What’s the big deal with mobile learning apps? appeared first on gomo Learning.
