Welcome to my Page

Welcome to my page. I created my site to tell a story. A story that learning does not need to be defined by a instant need but an experience that best fits the learner and the organization.

Recently, one of the biggest shifts in L&D thinking is that workplace learning can be considered an ecosystem. Not a random collection of courses and workshops and webinars, but a complex, integrated system of formal and informal learning. Learning is not an event, but a journey. Every moment we take in information—from media, from our peers, from content an organization controls and content it does not—is a step in that learning journey.

A second major shift is designing learning in a way that is learner-centric; this has been known about for years and is now at a tipping point. Yes, you need to align with the business objectives, and you need to engage learners to keep their attention and focus.

As we think about 2019 Instructional Design trends and learning trends, though this might be a radical concept, our first thought is not about solutions. Instead, we’re thinking about the sticking points. The challenges. Those areas that are holding the ecosystem back from evolving.

I will discuss this and more as I continue to develop my blog!
