Confused? Welcome to the Learning System World of 2024
I just read (1-31-24) that during the Pandemic, students (EdTech, K-12, Higher Education) went down something like 4% in learning. That’s not good. I blame it on two areas – that seem to reverberate that e-learning isn’t as effective (I disagree). The first? Professors and teachers only do synchronous-based learning (which I believe isn’t as effective…

Learning Technology and Learning Systems: Trust and Profitability
Learning Technology: LMS, LXP, LMS/LXP, Skills Platform, Learning Platform, Authoring Tools, Third-Party Content Providers, EdTech (K-12, Higher Education). E-Learning tools. EDP, and the list continues. Trust.

LXP – Don’t believe the Hype
For those Gen Xers who remember the days of MTV, it sure had a lot of Hype. How many saw the debut song by the Buggles – on the first day of MTV launch (8-1-81)? Where were you on that fantastic day? I was babysitting – and saw it on that first day. I was…
Degreed vs EdCast TXP vs Fuse – Battle 2.0
Three systems. One blog post. A repeat, in the sense, that a year ago, the debut battle between these vendors, occurred. It was and still is, one of the most popular posts, and since the systems have changed, it is only fitting to bring about a second battle to compare each vendor to one another.…

2019 Turkey Awards
Welcome. Welcome to the annual Turkey Awards. Last year’s 2018 Awards were all the rage. Truly coveted by those in the know, who know, they really shouldn’t be in the e-learning industry. In 2018, we also had the Worst Awards (after all, way too many best out there), but for 2019, the Turkey Awards combine…
Best Learning Systems for 500 or fewer learners

I recall some Schoolhouse Rock cartoon that identified the magic number. I can’t recall what it was, perhaps two? Seven seems to be a popular magic number. A lot…
