Blog: Technology and LearningWe are all trying to figure out the best way to include remote colleagues in our team meetings. A number of factors have come together to drive the use of online tools in meetings where some people are meeting...
Blaine Morrow's insight:
"The best method (I think) is to have everyone in the face-to-face / local meeting all open up their laptops, start their cameras, and participate in the meeting in the same way that the remote colleague is participating. This puts everyone on a more level playing field, with each person getting access to the same digital tools (webcam, chat, notes) independent of location." Delete the scoop?

Blaine Morrow's insight:
"Several of the most common emergencies can be either a small blip on the webinar radar (sometimes even going completely unnoticed by your audience) or they can quickly spread from a small flame to a blazing inferno, devouring the time and investment you spent on preparation and promotion. Having an Emergency Plan in place before the emergency arises will make all the difference between a blip and total disaster." Delete the scoop?

To ensure that your eLearning course is as successful as possible, pay attention to some common do's and don'ts for using images.
Blaine Morrow's insight:
"As with any strategy, there is a right way to do things and a wrong way. Images and visuals done incorrectly will cause harm rather than strengthen learning. But images incorporate and integrated into eLearning effectively, will bolster learning and lead to more learner engagement and material retention." Delete the scoop?
