We often hear learning businesses say they want to better engage their learners. But what is engagement, and how does it work? In this episode, Leading Learning Podcast co-host Jeff Cobb digs into those questions with Clark Quinn, executive director of Quinnovation and author of Make It Meaningful: Taking Learning Design from Instructional to Transformational. Jeff and Clark talk about engagement and motivation; learners' cognitive, affective, and conative involvement; and how the cognitive aspect gets more than its fair share of emphasis. They also talk about the role of emotion in learning, about practice and feedback, and about how the ability to make better decisions is ultimately the desired outcome of most learning experiences.

Instructional design is not easy and, for that reason, getting feedback is essential. Making sure you're on the right path and proving the efficacy of your work is so important in working towards a successful career.Ask fellow professionals, follow your customers and watch them use what you create. Gauging people's opinions on what you build can sure be uncomfortable, but it's worth it in the end.That's the opinion of Julie Dirksen, Learning Strategy Consultant at Usable Learning, who joins Matt Pierce, TechSmith's Learning and Video Ambassador, on this episode of The Visual Lounge. Julie explains how she got into the instructional design game, how she defines success in the industry and reveals what trips folks up when they first enter instructional design.Plus, she takes a deep dive into her book and tells us what resources inspire her.Learning points from the episode include:0:00 – 2:43 – Introduction2:43 – 5:33 – How Julie got started in instructional design5:33 – 9:35 – Defining success in learning design9:35 – 17:00 – One tip for image and video in learning design17:00 – 17:56 – Ad break 17:56 – 21:06 – Julie explains her book21:06 – 25:01 – What trips people up in learning design?25:01 – 32:01 – Simple vs cursive fonts and keeping learning design clear32:01 – 35:17 – What learning design pros need to improve on35:17 – 39:25 – The resistance to practice design 39:25 – 45:56 – Learning styles – not a thing?45:56 – 50:34 – Where Julie turns for self-development50:34 – 55:45 – Julie's speed round55:45 – 56:39 – Final take56:39 – 57:26 – Outro Important links and mentions:TechSmith Academy: https://academy.techsmith.com Book by Clark Quinn: https://www.amazon.com/Millennials-Goldfish-Other-Training-Misconceptions/dp/1947308378Julie's book: https://www.amazon.com/Design-People-Learn-Voices-Matter/dp/0134211286 Usable Learning: https://usablelearning.com/What Viewers Want: 2021 Video Viewer Study Deep Dive: https://www.techsmith.com/blog/what-viewers-want-2021

The always brilliant Clark Quinn, author of the new book Make It Meaningful, joined the show and talked about what skills and commitment are needed to make sure that your learning event is both memorable and transformational.

"You must ENGAGE your learners!"  Have you heard anyone say that before?Yep. Us too.We've had a few guests talk about it on IDIODC in the past.  And from those conversations we've learned about games, experiences, and making learning fun.  But what, exactly, do we mean by creating "engaging learning"?Dr. Clark Quinn joins us to talk about how we need to make our learning solutions meaningful to those experiencing them.  He's well known for his writing on the science of learning and many other subjects.  He wrote the book, "Learning Science for Instructional Designers". Dr. Quinn's next book, Make it Meaningful, focuses on how we Make it Meaningful.He frames the first part of the book using a fishing metaphor:"...the learners have to take the proverbial bait, becoming willing to start the experience. Then you need to reel them in, getting them from hook to net. It's a matter of taking them through the experience successfully, carrying them through to the end of the experience, and achieving the outcomes."He'll also share a design process you can all use to improve your learning solutions by Making it Meaningful.Join us for this engaging conversation with Dr. Clark Quinn.  You can find more about Dr. Quinn at his blog https://blog.learnlets.com/Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

What is the best way to launch a strategic centralized learning function within an organization? Malika Viltz-Emerson, an L&D leader who has worked for the likes of Xerox and Grubhub, answered this question on episode 5 of the Learning and Development Stories Podcast. Linking Learning to Business Strategy In a recent role, Malika needed to develop a learning function that aligned to the organization’s strategy and technology capabilities. “People were craving knowledge so we needed to develop learning paths to help employees have the tools to be successful,” she said. To align learning to the business, Malika first did an evaluation. This entailed going through a listening phase. It was imperative for her to have a “seat at the table” with business leaders (for example, being present when leadership was meeting with their managers). She created a strategy by partnering with stakeholders of different lines of business, identifying key performance indicators and then aligned this to learning. She came up with a scorecard that highlighted how learning initiatives could generate results on a quarter-to-quarter basis.  “By being in the room during business conversations, we can identify tactics that might otherwise be missed,” she said. “We can come up with strategic approaches on how we can partner.”  Following this exploration, Malika and her team created learning paths that were user friendly and provided a positive overall experience. “Managers were seeing positive changes in how employees were doing their jobs,” she said. “There were changes in how employees communicated with each other and shared information.” In summary, Malika highlighted five critical success factors for transformational learning: Strategic linkage Learner centered Technology enabled Integrating solutions Collaboration  Lessons from Mistakes Throughout her career, Malika used a standardized approach when doing analysis. In one particular role, she believes that she relied too heavily on this approach and it didn’t work as effectively. Part of the reason was that millennials made up a significant portion of this organization’s employees.  “I had to learn what works better with that group,” Malika explained. “That humbled me. I work in L&D and performance which means I am always a student and need to be continually learning myself.” The Link between Learning and Employee EngagementMalika is not a proponent of surveying employees too frequently. However, it is important to do from time to time. She and her colleagues were able to leverage the analytics and data from the learning platform to gauge how employees engaged with learning. “Engagement changed with the learning platform. There were more interactions. We found that people were coming to us and asking for information. People are often eager to learn but don’t have the tools and resources in place.” Communications TacticsFor Malika, there are two key components to communications: interactions with leadership and promoting the learning experience to employees. For leadership, the scorecard was an important component. It visually communicated the impact of learning from the previous quarter and identifying opportunities for improvement in the future. For marketing the overall L&D function, Malika  initially communicated with key stakeholders to get their buy-in. Eventually, she needed to go into marketing mode and raise awareness more broadly about key initiatives, such as a new learning platform coming to the organization. In this case, a serious of videos was one means to generating buzz. Once launched, the learning platform itself became a means for raising awareness. Fostering Knowledge Transfer Malika thinks L&D professionals need to be “navigators”. By that, there is an abundance of knowledge that is available online. L&D professionals need to make sure that whatever learners are consuming is the most impactful. For Malika, it is important to provide personalized learning, to capture conversations and then to create an atmosphere that encourages collaboration. Resources In terms of tools, Malika believes L&D leaders need to be actively involved in due diligence and that a learning platform is key to capturing the impact of informal learning. In terms of resources, she recommends the CLO Magazine, eLearning Guild, ATD, Slack and the Learning and Development Stories Podcast. Books she recommends for L&D professionals are  Clark Quinn’s Revolutionize Learning and Developmentand Dan Lyon’s book Disrupted.

This week on the GoodPractice Podcast, we're continuing our discussion around 'design thinking' with a focus on complexity. How can we make the complicated simple? Should this always be our objective? And can we prepare people for chaos? Learning design guru Julie Dirksen returns to the podcast to share her experiences with Ross G and Owen. If you'd like to share your thoughts on the show, you can tweet us @RossGarnerGP, @OwenFerguson, and @UsableLearning. You can also find us @GoodPractice or @GoodpracticeAus.

Technology is no longer the limiting factor, so what should we do? More than just rejecting the industrial model of learning, we need to think further. We can draw on different models of cognition and learning, and emerging technology capabilities, to propose new approaches to achieving our goals. We need to look for outside inspirations for rethinking what education might mean. Our reach should transcend learning and look to truly transformative experiences. Come explore the possibilities and co-create the future of learning design.
