My colleagues and I recently submitted a paper/presentation for the International Association of Bomb Technicians and Investigators (IABTI) Conference. This was their annual training and technology conference. We presented on some of the training programs we are working on, and we also gave a primer on trends in the learning field.

Lisa Neal asked a great question in a comment on Learn Trends 2008 - Free Online Conference : What do you see as the main differences between in person and online conferences? I have a bunch of random thoughts on this and I'm hoping that folks will chime in. First let me start with a couple of predictions: Prediction 1 - Online only conferences will rapidly increase and will slow down in-person conferences Prediction 2 - Smaller, targeted, short-burst, rapidly planned conferences will emerge. Now, don't get me wrong, I still very much like to do in-person conferences. I ...

I got an email the other day from a listserv. I actually have no idea how I am on this mailing list (I suspect it is from a conference I attended in the past). Regardless, the title caught my eye, "Four modes of Experiential Learning". It goes on to provide a brief 2-3 sentences on each of the four modes: 1. Simulations 2. Scenarios 3. Case Studies 4. Mirror Worlds The last one particularly caught my eye. At first I was a little excited, because I thought this was going to be a new experiential learning tool that I could add to my arsenal. Turns out that it is just another term for an ...

Someone asked me for an example of a conference using a Wiki both for organizers during planning, evaluating proposed sessions, etc. and for attendees with session pages, participant lists, that kind of stuff. Certainly we did parts of this for Corporate Learning Trends 2007 . It was more aimed at the attendee side. I can say that this made pulling things together for the conference significantly easier. And we even had people pitch in to do things like adding calendar files, automatic time conversion, profiles and questions for sessions. For planning this year, we relied on Google ...

It's particularly great for people who don't have an RSS reader.

At the recent ASTD conference in Atlanta, I attended Tony Karrer' s presentation on "eLearning 2.0". He discussed several technologies I had heard about, but have not had time (due to dissertation writing) to interact with. More importantly, he challenged everyone in the audience to become an active blogger...not necessarily for the benefit of others, but for their own continual learning and development. I greatly appreciated Tony's presentation and this blog is evidence that I have accepted Tony's challenge. In a way, doctoral programs forces one to continually read and stay on top ...
