“Step away from the solution.”
I say this all the time when building courses. It helps me and my clients focus on the training program’s core objective. The course we’re building exists to help meet the performance objective; but the course itself is not the objective.
This takes us back to what we discussed earlier: the problem of locking the course navigation. Usually the rationale is that all of the content needs to be viewed. Or, learners will skip past everything to get in and out of the course as fast as they can. Or how do we know they are learning?

"Not all the writing your students do needs to be in formal, graded assignments.
"In fact, most should occur in low-stakes situations, where students can brainstorm, wonder, create, practice, reflect, and apply skills without fear of grades or criticism.
"A writer’s notebook offers the perfect canvas for such writing. Writing in a paper or digital notebook for 10–20 minutes a day helps students build a writing identity, gather topic ideas, and experiment with new skills and techniques.
What is a writer's notebook? "As ELA teacher Jeff Anderson explains, a writer’s notebook differs from a writing folder or portfolio, which mostly contains polished pieces:
“Writing folders are great for holding finished pieces or parts of pieces in process, but the notebook holds a progressive record of the year and keeps all those scraps and loose-end responses sewn together, a deposit of gold that can be mined all year long.”
"Anderson shares some awesome ideas for setting up and using writing notebooks in his excellent book, Mechanically Inclined. Below we share our favorite ideas and show how to set up writers' notebooks for your classroom."

Have you played the online game Wordle? It’s the one with the green, yellow, and gray boxes that went viral during the pandemic.
Josh Wardle, a former Reddit engineer, created the game in 2021 that became a family activity over WhatsApp. The New York Times eventually purchased it in January 2022, adding it to their collection of word games, including Spelling Bee and the Crossword.
As learning and development professionals, we can apply some of the design principles used in this game to our learning interventions.

Da Vinci’s The Last Supper. Van Gogh’s The Starry Night. Monet’s Water Lilies. These well-known works of art use visual design principles that contribute to the viewer’s deep feelings, sense of cohesion, and understanding of the dynamics depicted. Learning and development professionals, too, can use such principles to help learners remember key points, empathize, and stay engaged with the training.

Nearpod provides VR Field Trips and 3D objects along with a library of standards-aligned VR lessons for different subjects. Teachers can integrate them immediately and seamlessly into their curriculum instead of creating a VR trip from scratch. Whether on site, online, or in hybrid classes, Nearpod VR works on any device. Using VR headsets makes the experience more immersive, but it is not required to engage students in this visual and hands-on learning experience.

Vocaroo est un service en ligne gratuit qui permet d'enregistrer et de partager facilement un message audio parlé (ou chanté). Il est particulièrement connu par les enseignants qui s'en servent pour donner des consignes aux élèves ou pour demander à ces derniers de s'enregistrer. Mais il peut aussi convenir à tout internaute, cela va de soi, d'autant qu'il ne nécessite pas d'inscription, ni d'installation de logiciel pour l'utiliser.

Critical thinking is the ability to analyze and effectively break down an issue in order to make a decision or find a solution. At the heart of critical thinking is the ability to formulate deep, different, and effective questions. For effective questioning, start by holding your hypotheses loosely. Be willing to fundamentally reconsider your initial conclusions — and do so without defensiveness. Second, listen more than you talk through active listening. Third, leave your queries open-ended, and avoid yes-or-no questions. Fourth, consider the counterintuitive to avoid falling into groupthink. Fifth, take the time to stew in a problem, rather than making decisions unnecessarily quickly. Last, ask thoughtful, even difficult, follow-ups.

Just when colleges and universities began to feel that operations were returning to normal, new variants and mutations emerged to upset the apple cart. I’m not referring to the Beta, Delta, or Omicron BA 1, BA4, and B5 COVID strains.
I’m talking about a new forms of educational disruption that have their gun sights set on those non-traditional students who are looking for “a path to a career rather than a four-year pit stop.”

Online learning is becoming more and more popular every year because of its flexibility and convenience. However, there are also a few challenges that come with this form of education. For starters, it is very easy to become lazy or unproductive, as there are no set learning hours.
For this reason, it is imperative to set goals for yourself when studying online. In this article, we will be discussing how you should go about setting reasonable and achievable online learning goals.
