What’s the future of elearning?
I’m not sure it has a future. In fact I argued against the use of the term “elearning” seven years ago and I still hold to that argument now.
But is there a future for technology supported learning? Of course there is.
This difference between traditional “elearning” and the future of the Learning Organisation (supported by technology) is something I’ll be talking about at 11am (UK) on Wednesday 27th August in a Google Hangout run by DreamTek, the experts behind the Learning and Skills Group’s webinar series.
The idea that “elearning” is a dead term is more than just semantic. I firmly believe that most learning at work is supported by technology in some form, but then so is most of finance, operations and sales and we don’t stick an e- in front of the names of those departments or what they do.
