What tools do people use to put together great training and eLearning?
11 presenters discussed 14 tools that they use to plan, design and build great training - face-to-face, blended and eLearning. They steered clear of the 'usual suspects' and introduced people to some niche tools they may not have come across before.
David Swaddle capped the evening off by quickly explaining additional tools that Sydney based learning professionals were relatively unaware of.
If you want to find some new tools to spice up your training, then take 10 minutes to have a look. Even better, join the MeetUp group (if you're in Sydney) and join us in person.
Slides from my AITD 2017 Conference talk.
Join me and become a Ninja Learning Warrior.
My talk covered some of the options that training managers need to look at in order to create mobile learning that really works.
It doesn't make much sense without my words, so I'm creating an online version with VO soon.
Deck with links to all the tools discussed at the recent Sydney Instructional Design and eLearning #IDeL MeetUp. Includes H5P, Mobirise, Canva, Videoscribe, Feathercap and Pixton.
The need to stay up to date on the latest developments in your field of study has never been more urgent. With increasing competition, stagnant unemployment and expected budget shortfalls every professional must be able to prove their value to the organization. The good news is that opportunities for learning are abundant and new advances in technology have produced a variety of options suitable for any budget or schedule. Still, resources are scarce and the pressure to make the most of every moment can derail many attempts to explore new learning experiences. This session will address steps you can take to get the most return out of your investment of time and money in professional development activities.

Startupfest 2016: MARTY WEINER (Reddit) - How toStartupfest
How to Handle Explosive Startup Growth (and only slightly lose your sanity) -
I've been with Pinterest since the early work-out-of-an-apartment days and am now CTO at Reddit. There's been a feeeew cultural and technological challenges we've had to conquer in the process of building companies from a few employees to 600+ and from a few thousand users to tens of millions. In this talk, I share several important inflection points as a company scales starting from day -100, and talk about the cultural and technological pieces you should have in place. For instance, at what point do you bring in technologies like logging, map reduce, etc? How about SOA? How do you fix trust issues in the team? How do you balance making some engineers managers versus others? Come with questions! If this is your first rodeo, I hope to make it a lot easier.
If you’re a creative or technical professional, odds are you need a great portfolio website. What makes a good portfolio? What if you’re a writer, or a developer, and don’t have a lot of visual work to show? We’ll go over how to navigate the intimidating world of personal portfolio websites, using WordPress as our guide.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
