Clark Quinn has always been ahead of the crowd. He was talking and writing about mobile learning and serious games years before they reached the mainstream, and he continues to lead the debate on a range of crucial issues facing L&D.
His background in brain science and understanding of learning design makes his influential blog, Learnlets, a must-read for anyone hoping to stay informed on industry trends. In this exclusive interview conducted at the recent OEB conference, Quinn shares his views on L&D.
What’s your assessment of the state of L&D?When we look at the data on Learning and Development, what we find is that although people are beginning to be aware of the fact that they are really not on top of things, there’s not a lot of change happening. I have a fairly simple statement; L&D isn’t doing near what it could and should do, and what it is doing it’s doing badly – other than that it’s fine!
