Three Videos Related to the Future of Learning

Here are three videos, all from a slightly different perspective that, I think, are related in one way or another to the future of learning both within organizations and within academic institutions. We need to learn from the expert teachers, from what is happening online and, of course, from games.

What makes a teacher great? (this clear back from 2012)

Here is what Daphne Koller thinks we are learning about online learning from her TED Talk. Having taken a Coursea Course, or MOOC, I found the entire process very interesting.

Great presentation from DevLearn. 9 Reasons you need to replace your online learning with games.

    One interesting thing about this field (there are many) is that at some levels it is very transient, people become a learning person or an instructional designer or a trainer because they were “drafted” into the position and not, always, because they have the educational or professional background (always been a sore spot with me).

    But, give that many in the field are transient, educating the field continually is a worthwhile endeavor because there are constantly new people who need to learn the information us “old” folks already know:)

    Karl, thanks for pulling together these great resources, I sympathize with the comment that much presented as new in our field is already well known. But that doesn’t mean that it’s not worth listening to. Thanks for sharing.

    Daphne’s talk is both valuable and frustrating… The frustrating part is that she presents a lot of good information that has been know for years – decades even and is presented as new information. A bit like she never bothered to do any homework / research about what the field has already discovered.
