With a low barrier to entry, everyone fancies themselves a learning designer. How hard can it be? In this episode, Greg Arthur shares his approach to creating engaging and impactful learning experiences, honed over his years of working in L&D teams at highly successful, world-renowned companies. KEY TAKEAWAYS Because you are dealing with people, every business is different, even those operating in the same industry. Ask the 2 basic questions to cut through the noise – What is happening right now? How do you want to change it? Understand who you are talking to and why they will care and listen to you. Ask yourself if I were to put this out a real-life product, would I buy it? The medium you use to provide the learning must be right for the person. Make sure you do the work upfront and solve the problem, even if it takes a little longer. Try different things while the problem is small. BEST MOMENTS 'Some teams, learning teams, regardless of industry are just better than others.' 'You don´t move ahead until you are ready to move ahead. You don´t bring in the wrong people at the wrong time.' 'Basically, it´s like Lego for learning design.' 'This is changing a whole department's attitude to learning design.'   Greg Arthur Bio Greg Arthur is a learning professional with experience of designing learning and leading teams at blue-chip brands such as BP, ASOS, HSBC and Philip Morris. Greg has devised the Learning Experience Design Log Book, and his own design studio (Two Circles) that catalogues his approach and guides followers to develop impactful and engaging learning experiences themselves.

The user experience is more than just usability. In this episode, learning experience and design consultant Connie Malamed shares practical methods for improving the effectiveness of eLearning.   Show Notes:Connie Malamed shares tips for learning experience design including:Importance of User Experience (UX): User experience is the totality of a person's interaction with a product or learning event. This includes factors like engagement, satisfaction, and even support from managers and other who contribute to a positive learner experience.Common Mistakes in Usability: One prevalent mistake is the failure to use interviews and surveys to better understand the learner, their need for the learning and how they will apply it. Think Aloud Method: Connie introduces the Think Aloud method as an effective and inexpensive approach to gather learner feedback. By observing individuals as they perform specific tasks and express their thoughts aloud, designers gain insights into user experiences, preferences, and potential challenges.Creating User Personas: Developing user personas is a valuable practice in instructional design. While some critics argue about potential stereotyping, Connie suggests breaking the audience into subgroups and using personas to humanize the approach. This method helps designers understand their audience's characteristics and needs.Tools for Improved Usability: Connie recommends tools borrowed from user experience design and design thinking. These include personas, empathy maps, journey maps, and storyboards. These tools contribute to a more inclusive and accessible design process, enhancing the overall usability of e-learning projects.Visit Connie's eLearning Coach websitePowered by Learning earned an Award of Distinction in the Podcast/Audio category from The Communicator Awards and a Silver Davey Award for Educational Podcast.

We love it when we get to spend time with genuine thought leaders! This time, Dr Page Chen came to speak to us about Strategic Learning Experience Design (SLED).“When designing a theme park, you don't just think about the rides - you think about the whole experience!” and Page says we should create learning in just the same way.We could've listened to her for ever, and we bet you'll think the same.

We've all heard of Sales Enablement roles. But why is it that only sales teams get special attention enabling them to do their jobs better? Shouldn't we be enabling the entire organization?One might argue that traditional onboarding and training has that responsibility. But it's not quite the same. Enabling all departments to be successful and productive requires more than what traditional training departments provide. Supporting the moments of need within all departments requires knowledge management, informal learning, social learning, access management, and more.Mike Simmons joins us to talk about organization enablement and how L&D is uniquely positioned to blend the best of Knowledge Management, Performance Improvement, and Learning & Development into a cohesive solution that enables all employees to be their best and provide the most value to their organizations.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

Have you asked yourself lately why you don't put a stronger focus on accessibility when creating eLearning content? Oh c'mon, you know you've made excuses why you "can't" do it. We all have at one time or another in our careers. I include myself in that. Here are just a few I'm sure you've used:"Yea, but nobody in our organization has a disability.""Yea, but nobody with a disability could do these particular jobs anyways.""Yea, but it costs more, and we don't have the time to spare.""Yea, but we're not a government agency so we don't really need to worry about it.""Yea, but we make a pdf transcript. That's all we need."Your "Yea, buts" are no longer valid. Diane Elkins joins us to debunk the common myths and excuses used to avoid creating fully accessible learning experiences. She's an experienced elearning development professional who's been at the helm of Artisan Learning for 20 years. She's heard it all.

Just because you have the skills to shoot and edit a video doesn't mean it's instructionally sound. This is why some videos are easier to learn from than others. And why that learning sticks. Watching video is a passive experience and therefore you might think there isn't much more to it than just making it more entertaining. Yea, you'd be wrong.Dr. Patti Shank joins us to discuss some of the mental processing models you can use to your advantage when producing videos.

AI is the hottest topic in L&D since Learning2.0. It's even hotter than Virtual Reality. Why? Because it's something everyone can use and doesn't require additional hardware expenses.  And more importantly, when used creatively, AI apps can supercharge your individual productivity.

The 5 Moments of Need exist in every department of every enterprise, and requires a strong and efficient learning ecosystem. Both formal and informal learning solutions support each of the moments in different ways. When you need to learn NEW stuff or MORE stuff, those are the first 2 moments of need and probably the most obvious. But there is also APPLY, CHANGE, and SOLVE. These are moments that require learning solutions supported by solid design and development processes, and systems as well.  Bob Mosher is the founding member at 5 Moments of Need and joins us to share his experiences putting these philosophies into practice. We'll talk about the basics, but then we'll jump into why and how we need to adjust our practices. Bob has plenty of case studies and stories to tell about important business impact applying The 5 Moments of Need can have. And you don't need to be an instructional designer to benefit from this conversation. Every business leader can improve their operations by knowing more about these 5 distinct moments where a learning intervention is required.This episode could be the 45mins that launches your career within your organization.

Learning and Development leaders and their teams support many different stakeholders. But all of these stakeholders play an important role in the success of each enterprise. If our job is to help them improve their performance than we must learn to become better advisors to those lines of business.Jess Almlie joins us to talk about becoming a trusted business advisor. For Jess, this is key in doing our best work as L&D professionals. Working as a trusted business advisor allows us to get out of the order-taking business and into the business of working strategically, maximizing our use of time and resources, and creating solutions that impact the organization. If we have the trust of our business stakeholders, we can say yes strategically (saying "no" to items that won't be solved by learning and/or are just "nice to have"), be proactive in our approach, and really work collaboratively with our business stakeholders as opposed to just doing things for them.It's an important part of building your career as an L&D professional. And if you're already in a position of leadership, you'll benefit from this conversation as well. In fact, we need you to join us and share your experiences.

Imagine a learning environment that, much like a Star Trek Holodeck, changes based on a user's individual requirements. It understands the learner's strengths and weaknesses, anticipates next steps, recommends the best learning content, moves at the learner's pace, and removes unnecessary friction within the mechanics of learning. With today's advancements in generative AI, that vision of personalized learning may not be far off from reality. We spoke with Dr. Kim Round, associate dean of the Western Governors University School of Education, about the potential of technologies like ChatGPT for learning, the need for AI literacy skills, why learning experience designers have a leg up on AI prompt engineering, and more. And get ready for more Star Trek references, because the parallels between AI and Sci Fi are futile to resist. Resource links: AI in Education: Will We Need Humans Anymore?

So far, it seems 2023 has been the year of Chat GPT but what does it mean for L&D? Should you be using it now? Should your learning tech provider be incorporating it into their platform? Does this mean that the robots are coming for our jobs? This episode offers an intriguing glimpse into the future of corporate learning and the transformative potential of generative AI. KEY TAKEAWAYS Generative AI is here to stay. Seek out those who are using it and learn from them. Play with ChatGPT, take a real-life learning need, and use it to create a solution. People need support when learning. ChatGPT actually can be a learning assistant. ChatGPT 4 is way more advanced than 3.5 and includes an API so you can link it into other systems. Khan Academy, Duolingo and others are already accelerating learning using AI plugins. Creating learning content is much faster and cheaper using AI and opens up the chance for users to do it too. BEST MOMENTS 'It´s mind-blowing… It´s not a fad ' ' It´s dialogue not a monologue. ' 'Generative AI draws upon a body of knowledge that is sort of infallible. ' '(Using AI) learning and development can be truly achieved bottom up. '   Donald Clark Bio Donald Clark is an EdTech Entrepreneur, CEO, Professor, Researcher, Blogger and Speaker.

When you hear about Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives, how often do you associate them with accessibility? Probably not immediately, right? But when you see it, your brain says "of course"!  Accessibility conversations are often discussed as a separate initiative, when in reality, creating accessible learning content is exactly what DEI programs are all about. Perhaps we should add another letter, and begin calling these programs Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility?For enterprise wide initiatives, that's probably a little outside of a training department's sphere of influence. However, designing and developing learning content that is accessible is exactly part of our charter, and it's within our control. So, of course, we should be doing everything we can to make the best accessible learning content we can.Susi Miller returns as our guest to discuss more of her insights and experiences related to creating accessible learning content. We'll look at common pitfalls and mistakes organisations are still making with accessibility, and how focusing on accessibility can actually improve your learning designs for everyone.Our Summer of '21 episode with Susi turned out to be one of our most watched episodes that season. Now's your chance to join us with her again and level up your accessibility game as part of your 2023 strategy.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.
