New Free Resource: Engaging with the new eLearning

In keeping with the intent to keep folks informed of new resources, here’s another FREE one that provides a unique view of e-learning.

“Engaging with the new eLearning”

12 strategies for engaging and retaining learners through compelling online experiences.

eLearning enables us to deliver both learning and information at will—dynamically and immediately; to tap the knowledge of experts and nonexperts and catapult those messages beyond classroom walls and into the workplace; and to know, through the magic of technology, who is learning, referring, and contributing—and who is not.

eLearning helps organizations increase knowledge and improve skills by connecting people, ideas, and information in online courses with engaging interactive content. eLearning can include formal online courses and simulations as well as informal and workflow learning using web conferencing, mobile performance support tools, digital learning games, publications, and podcasts.
