Who: Scot May
Presentation: Married to E-learning, for Better or Worse – Let’s Make it for Better!


Session Objectives:

We have all rushed (or are in that process) to e-learning… but is it good e-learning? That can be a subjective judgment, depending on who you ask.

In this session, we will review six (or however many) effective e-learning principles and how those principles are (or are not) being applied to e-learning solutions. We will begin by examining the principles, positions, and ideas of several industry experts. We will then review samples of e-learning – good and bad – to see how the principles were (or were not) applied.

This session will be interactive with audience participation (conversation, debate, and crying).
