It’s not all Greek to us: When we’re talking about eLearning, pedagogy and andragogy are often thrown around. Both of Greek origin, pedagogy literally translates to paidi (child) and ago (guide). Andragogy, on the other hand, means andras (man) and ago (guide). While both words refer to learning strategies, they each have their own distinct philosophies.

Clients often come us to develop their learning solution saying they already know what they want. They want gamification. We ask what they mean by gamification. They say they want the training to be a game. And why do they want it to be a game? Because they want it to be fun. We hear this all the time - even from some colleagues. For training to engage learners, it must be entertaining.

Offering interactions with your students can enhance their learning experience. Online courses have many advantages: they fit very easily into students’ schedules, they are usually more affordable than courses offered by brick and mortar schools, and they are ideal for those who have caring or parenting responsibilities.

Nail down the what, when, and why of your training course for best results. Now that you understand the why of investing in refresher training, it’s time to cover the how. In many ways, refresher training is like any other course.

I was talking with my better half, who’s now working at a nursery. Over time, she has related stories of folks coming to ask for assistance. And the variety is both interesting and instructive. There’s a vast difference of how people can be working with you. So, for one, she likes to tell stories of people who come in saying “you know, I want something ‘green'” Or, worse, “I want a big tree that doesn’t require any watering at all” (Er, doesn̵

Carly Baker-Rice - September 2019.

Occasionally I try to look at the broader swings we see (in a variety of things). In learning technology, there’s been a gross pendulum swing, and maybe smaller ones. I think we’ve swung between craft and commercial approaches to design, and I’m hoping we’re on a return swing. When we first started playing with learning technology, every approach was pretty much hand-crafted.
