<h1>Social Learning & LMSs Marketplace</h1>
<p>Jeffrey Roth — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 10:53:13 +0100</p>
<p style= As social learning continues to grow, LMS/LCMS vendors are taking various approaches. While some view themselves as "social learning" savvy, incorporating various components, others seem to see themselves as just sitting on the sidelines.

Equally interesting, is that those who incorporate it, for the most part, are re-treading the same components as others, which when you consider the marketplace, makes no sense, especiall...

TOPYX eLearning Software Helps The Protocol Institute Deliver Etiquette Courses

Jeffrey Roth — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 10:16:30 +0100

Being raised in the small, southern town of Graceville, Florida, manners and etiquette were a part of everyday life for Laura Pulido. As early as kindergarten, Laura remembers attending numerous “manners” classes at the local community center. She learned the difference between a fish fork and a salad fork as well as the importance of standing when someone enters the room for an introduction. Back then, Laura was taugh...

List of Social Media Tools That Can be Used in Social Learning

mLearning: eReaders

Jeffrey Roth — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 11:16:23 +0100

I know that there are quite a few out there right now going HUH?? What about the smart phone, I mean they have been pitching the smart phone. Yeah, I am well aware of it. But while the smart phone will be involved and be utilized in the mobile learning scene, IMO the eReader will become more of a beneficial partner with mLearning because it offers soooo many more capabilities than the smartphone.

How Much Can You Increase Your Training ROI with eLearning Software?

Jeffrey Roth — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 11:39:38 +0100

In today's work environment, it is becoming more and more important for every employee to have access to the information they need to perform their jobs. Having the right information can help save time and money (and critical errors). This is especially true in overcoming the learning curve with new employees or if new processes are added.

Emerging Technology: APIs and Mashups and eLearning

Jeffrey Roth — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 15:57:53 +0100

If you want to take a peek into the future, then you should look no further than APIs and what they bring to the table. Unfortunately, too many vendors in the eLearning space have failed to see the power and potential of this capability, and have decided to ignore them. It is too bad, because what they can do far exceeds what is available today, and enables YOU the end user to have the power and control to unlock possibilities for your learners – regardless if they are your employees, c...

Marketing Your LMS Internally

Jeffrey Roth — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 10:46:05 +0100

Many people believe that once they have implemented their LMS/LCMS that everyone will come running to use the system. Nothing could be farther than the truth.

Worse they assume that if it is “mandatory” everyone is going to access it because it is required. Thus creating a marketing strategy while you are working on/implementing your LMS is essential to build an audience and expand for future growth.

Interactyx Limited is fortunate to announce that our professional services partnership program continues to gain momentum. We have developed strategic relationships with established professional services providers to position TOPYX® as the critical technological platform for a complete training and education offering.

eLearning Software Enhances Mobile Collaboration

Jeffrey Roth — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 22:18:59 +0100

Collaboration may be the hot term of the decade, yet true collaboration has always been a difficult concept to implement…until recently. The rise of eLearning software over the last several years has provided businesses, nonprofits and academic institutions a platform for genuine collaboration.

As defined by thefreedictionary.com, collaboration means, “to work together, especially in a joint intellectual effort.” At this basic l...

Justification for Mobile

Separate “learn” from “apply”

Jeffrey Roth — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 23:55:25 +0100

When organizations can’t or won’t spend money on a comprehensive training capability, they often adopt a “trickle-down” approach to employee development. They provide rudimentary train-the-trainer instruction to supervisors, and give them training materials to use with their teams.

Management is usually pleased with this approach, but the reality is that it doesn’t work. Training is a profession, and supervisors aren’t educator...

There are continual sales challenges: Leaving a phone message that gets returned. Fighting a price competitor. Getting past call stopper statements. Holding price under intense negotiating pressure. The list goes on and on.

The good news is that somebody in the sales force likely knows exactly how to handle each situation. The bad news is that your sales force has to rediscover these best practices on their own. The challenge is tracking down the first employees who initially have the i...

Social Learning & Social Media - Brothers in Arms

Jeffrey Roth — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 20:46:54 +0100

Is it me or does it seem that most vendors in the LMS/LCMS market still believe that with some smoke and mirrors, you won’t realize that social media actually must be integrated into social learning for it to exist? Or do they just drop the word, “social media”, and rather say, “social learning and web 2.0″? Or, how about "social LMS"?

After all, many have a blog, wiki, RSS feed, a Facebook like page, with profile, inc. an image, friends can connect and see comments – sort of like a Tw...

It’s a techno generation

Jeffrey Roth — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 20:11:17 +0100

I’m an old fogey. As a kid, my parents used to come into my room while I was studying and yell at me to turn off that horrible rock and roll on my transistor radio.

By now, I'm sure you've heard that Blackboard (BBBB) is acquiring Angel Learning.

Jeffrey Roth — Sat, 28 Mar 2009 02:00:00 +0100

The Earth is important. It’s where we live. The Earth provides us with everything we need and collectively we need to stop taking that for granted. Here’s our chance to start recognizing the Earth for all that it does for us – Earth Hour.

I would love to blog about our about to be announced new TOPYX Mobile and how it is going to take mobile learning (mLearning) to a new level – but maybe I am a bit biased, so I will leave that to others. Regardless, mLearning is coming fast and furious.

The recent featured story in Fortune Magazine (March 2009) further supports the familiar message being screamed by hilltops: Social Networking Is Changing The World!

By 2008, over 4 million students were participating in on-line learning at institutions of higher education in the United States. Many higher education, for-profit institutions, now offer on-line classes. About half of private, non-profit schools offer eLearning software programs.
