Andrew and Vieves consider commercials that rely on the dubious acting chops of professional wrestlers to sell everything from candy bars to canned pasta. Plus, a lottery commercial gets a little too grim, and everyone's boyfriend Sam Richardson has an idea. Actually, lots of ideas.

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 That's all we need."Your "Yea, buts" are no longer valid.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. But more importantly she's discovered successful responses to the "Yea, buts" and created solutions that prove the "yea, but...-ers" (Trademark pending) WRONG.Stop being a "yea, but...-er"!Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

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. She's taught us all how to become better multiple-choice question writers with a scientific approach, and now she's applying that same researched-based rigor to producing better training videos. She reads ALL the research so we don't have too.Join us for another IDIODC with Patti as she continues to help the L&D community apply the research to all that we do.

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. But if you're a manager/director of an L&D or Training department, you need to build your knowledge of these tools as well. They are changing how your team will work and support stakeholders.Myra Roldan, AWS Sr. Technical Program Manager, joins us to talk about the many solutions and productivity hacks she's discovered while experimenting with AI apps. She'll talk about building AI generated content, but also how she's generated more complex solutions like knowledge bases. She's even used AI to generate her own app that generates instructional objectives. The future of AI is here now.If you follow Myra on social media you may have already seen these demos, but if you're like me, her videos sparked even more questions.

Is your company, or department, growing and needing to upgrade the training systems you've outgrown? Or maybe you're just curious about the future of your career in L&D or corporate training? Perhaps you just like to stay informed about the training industry for other reasons. Digital technology has been changing our industry for over 50 years. Keeping up is not easy, but IDIODC is here to help.Craig Weiss joins IDIODC to talk about the changes in technology that are changing the landscape of L&D and corporate training.

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.

Data literacy is not something traditionally taught to training teams, but leveraging data for decision-making is critical in today's workplace. But just counting butts-in-seats doesn't cut it. It's necessary to interpret the business data you are expecting to impact with your training solutions. But that's often easier said than done. Especially if you're new to the world of training and development.Zsolt Oláh joins us to discuss the data analytics of training and development. We'll discuss what data is available, or should be available, as well as why data helps us make better business decisions. Zsolt recently conducted session at TechKnowledge where he asked attendees to participate in a simulated project where the team needs to evaluate the learning pilot based on the given data. Zsolt will explain the valuable insights gained using this simulated approach and how you can use it too.This session is for everyone on your learning team as its a group effort when you're growing as a success training organization. Learning leaders will benefit from new insights and team members will have a better understanding of what training interventions work, or not, and how to communicate that to others.Join us with your entire team for this fantastic session.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

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.

If anyone knows about gamification and what's next, it's him.We'll talk about a little history of gamification and why it seemed like a good idea at the time. But more importantly we'll cover the good that came from it, and what games for learning really should look like in the future.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

Facilitation is about mastering how to deliver an engaging learning experience, all in the effort of improving workplace performance. Instructional designers work hard to do the same. But often times lack facilitation skills or the nuanced understanding of facilitating a learning experience. Let's connect these valuable skillsets and improve training experiences for everyone.In our current digital world it might be easy to believe the art of facilitation is a lost and unnecessary craft. But facilitation is alive and well. We, as humans, love interacting with each other. And as much as we'd like to think everything is automated, humans still learn best from other humans.Nikki O'Keeffe and Darryl Wyles, 2 of the 4 authors of Facilitation in Action, join us this week to discuss the art of facilitation. It is a broad topic, with wide ranging methods and models to explore. We'll likely hit on topics like empathy and inclusive facilitation, as well as understanding multiple modalities of training. And if you're interested in finding your own facilitation style we'll talk about that journey as well.And for you technical types, yes we'll talk about the technology involved and best methods of facilitation utilizing today's best technologies.

Yea, I haven't either.The Sabido Method has a few steps in the process:Formative ResearchPolicy FrameworkThe Values GridWriting and ProductionMonitoring Audience FeedbackImpact EvaluationJim Piechocki joins us to discuss how the Sabido Method has been successfully applied and resulted in significant behavior change. We'll talk about the case study, however most listeners will recognize it as a large scale, Hollywood level, effort. But Jim is going to also engage our IDIODC community in an exercise that scales down the method to be useful for instructional designers working in corporate environments.You'll be sure to leave this episode enlightened and motivated to craft your own Sabido-style serial drama for deep engagement and behavior change.

Colors, fonts, images, shapes, white space, and so much more. Our work as instructional designers requires a significant understanding of digital visual design. Even if you're "just an instructional designer" and hand your work over to a "developer", there are still many basics of digital design that make us all better at the work we do.As we've learned from past episodes on topics such as translations and accessibility, how you design the instruction impacts how you will design the visual elements. Some written languages take up more line space than others, so how you write and how much your write has impact on the visuals. And how you write scenarios can also impact design elements for accessibility.Thankfully, we have Mark Lassoff joining us to discuss some of the basic elements of digital design. He has been teaching digital design for many years and understands the areas where instructional designers fall short. His recent articles on Font selection and usage are particularly useful for those new to designing instructional content.  Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

Artificial Intelligence is the hot topic for 2023. Useful applications seem to be popping up daily, and existing platforms, like Canva and Microsoft, are creating new "magic" features within their existing apps. Do these news apps and new feature sets make our jobs easier? Some might argue they will someday make our jobs obsolete. The only thing we know for certain is that AI is here to stay, and getting better every day, whether we like it or not.Like all new shiny tech objects that we chase in our industry there will be pros and cons. If your personality leans towards a "glass is half empty" world view AI might be concerning to you. If your excited about AI with a "glass half full" perspective then you've likely already played with these tools and thought of all the creative things you can do to improve your productivity in designing learning content.Mark Oehlert is one of the "glass half full" guys. And I swear he can see the future for real.  He's joining us to talk about how Artificial Intelligence programs like OpenAI, ChatGPT, and others, might change our L&D departments and work we do in them.  We'll discuss details in future episodes of IDIODC, but for now let's get a baseline understanding of the enterprise ecosystem and how AI changes and/or modifies the current structures and skills required for L&D to continue supporting the business and impacting revenue growth.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

Before technology we had 1 method of instruction: Classroom based learning with student/teacher guides. But as technology and the internet began to grow the world gained many new options. Sadly, this initially led to thoughts of learning solutions that would replace the classroom and the instructor.  Today, we've all, finally, accepted the fact that learning is a long term process. One training event cannot truly be the only event required for the realization of business impact. We now mix and match self-paced eLearning segments, shorter classroom experiences (sometimes online), and mobile reminders or micro learning. In some cases there may even be virtual reality or mixed reality thrown into the mix.And with the new Artificial Intelligence, or AI, technologies, there's no telling how many different mixed media experiences one might have to more accurately learn and master a particular topic. There is a lot for us all to learn.Thankfully, we have Michelle Parry-Slater joining us to help make sense of it all. She is an award-winning L&D professional with more than 15 years' experience in the industry. She is the Founder and Director of Kairos Modern Learning, an L&D consultancy specializing in driving a shift from traditional courses to the best of digital, social and face-to-face workplace learning.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

In today's global economy instructional designers are increasingly needing to create learning solutions that meet the needs of many cultures communicating in different languages. For decades the answer was simply mandated within large companies requiring all employees anywhere in the world to understand English. Problem solved? Not so much.Thankfully, modern technology solves the problem of multiple languages. And while we don't have any direct links to research, my guess is that most people learn best using their native language. It's one more way instructional designers can create inclusive, science-based solutions for more effective outcomes. But then the question becomes, how do we do that?Mark Sheppard joins us in this episode to discuss these issues and share his experiences designing and delivering learning solutions for audiences requiring multiple languages. We'll talk about the many challenges and constraints instructional designers may face when encountering a multi-language project for the first time. He'll have a few tips and tricks to share, but we'd also love to hear from our IDIODC community.Join us and share your thoughts on designing and developing learning solutions for multi-language projects.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

Who remembers seeing their first CommonCraft video? I remember seeing RSS in Plain English back in the day and thinking, "Wow, this guy if FANTASTIC!" That particular video is now considered a classic, and low budget, compared to today's Explainer Videos. But the cool thing is that it STILL works.  It takes a relatively complex topic and explains it "in plain english". If you've always felt like you could never "do video", then this is a must attend event for you.

Do you know if your eLearning is accessible? If no, why not?As an instructional designer it's your responsibility to make sure your eLearning projects are accessible for all possible learners. And hey, you eLearning developers! This is your responsibility as well. Even if it is not mandated within your industry, it's the right thing to do.  Jenny Wincek joins us from Interactive Advantage to talk about the Trusted Tester program. We will cover some of the basics of 508 and WCAG compliance as well as why accessibility is important. We'll also discuss how your current testing might not be enough, and that could be putting you and your team at risk.Just like SCORM standardized eLearning content packages for corporate training Trusted Tester Version 5 (TTV5) is the latest standardized uniform testing approach for accessibility compliance and conformity.And did you know there is an Accessibility Conformance Reporting Tool? Yea, I didn't know either. But, don't worry, Jenny is here to walk us through the TTV5, share some stories, and answer your questions.  Tell your Training Manager and team about this extremely important conversation.

Allison Rossett's web site has a great quote, "She works on Learning and Technology in a way that is creative, concrete, and quirky." But what it should say is The Greatest of All Time! And her credits and accolades prove it. Not to mention being a genuinely wonderful human being.She is a legend in L&D, but specifically making her mark in the realm of Performance Support. She was promoting Performance Analysis and Support before most practitioners had even thought about what instruction might look like outside of the classroom.I still have the first edition of First Things Fast on my bookshelf. If you don't have it, you should get it.The wonderful thing about Allison is that she enjoys life and is a pleasure to talk with. I once asked her to keynote a TLDC Event I was programming and she told me she would like to discuss Happiness. Happiness in the workplace: Who owns it? Of course I said yes, and she crushed it! The recording is probably still available on YouTube.Honestly, I don't care what we end up talking about with her.

Most skills will never be learned without actually DOING the skill. Duh. It's basic training 101 that if it's too expensive or too dangerous to simply practice a skill many, many, times, then you the design should include a simulated version of the skill. And all knowledge can only be valuable to a business if it is applied to the work being done. Well, coding skills and knowledge are neither dangerous nor expensive for learners to practice. And because of that fact, proving proficiency in coding skills should be easy to do. Or is it?Brent Newhall joins us to talk about how the value of implementing a project-based assessment strategy will improve your training outcomes. After all, if they can't do the work by performing on a fake project, how are they going to handle the real projects? Brent will share his case study implementing a project-based assessment program for the Capital One Developer Academy's coding bootcamp.This is another special episode of IDIODC where we get the chance to introduce you, the IDIODC community, to one of your peers who is out in the wild, doing the work. Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

Having instructional design skills and knowledge can open up many different career paths. The easiest distinction for many is either being in education/higher ed or going the corporate route. If you decided to go the corporate route, you would typically land in the HR department designing training solutions for internal employees.However, more and more IDs are making the shift to corporate product departments and designing learning systems for external users of the product or services the company offers.Is there a difference in your ID work for one versus the other? Some say yes. Others say no, instructional design is instructional design no matter what.We asked B.J. Schone to join us and help facilitate this conversation. He's an experienced instructional designer and has been in both departments over his career. This career conversation will help IDs get a better understanding of their options and how they may, or may not, be shifting their methods and models between settings.We'll also talk about the technology issues involved as well.

Storyboarding is only one part of the instructional design process.  But storyboarding is a craft that's been around for a very long time, and used in the design process of many creative endeavors.  There are many different techniques for storyboarding as well.  Some IDs will start with pen and paper sketching out their concepts.  Others use templates in digital applications.  And many designers who also develop will storyboard directly inside their authoring tool.Tim Slade join us to help everyone get started with storyboarding no matter how you choose to do the work.  We'll talk about learning the process of storyboarding as different from your instructional design work. But also take full advantage of your efforts designing instruction to help in the storyboarding process.It's a seemingly simple part of your work as an instructional designer, but not everyone creates them as part of their eLearning development process.

Nudge-Learning. Is it micro-learning? Is it slow-drip learning? It is work-flow learning? Whatever it is, it's become another hot new term being used amongst instructional design communities.  It's a new one for me, so of course we needed to learn more about it.  I reached out on LinkedIn, commented on an article about it, and found Amy Parent from Salience Learning.Amy is an experienced and passionate instructional designer and learning technologist who loves to experiment with new ideas, concepts, and trends.  She's been experimenting with nudge-learning and so we asked her to join us for a discussion on the topic.We'll cover everything we can from beginning to end.  What it is.

Communicating clearly is probably the most difficult thing anyone can do in business.  Our job as Instructional Designers is often to make better communication happen under the guise of "we need everyone to be better trained on _______". It doesn't matter what level you are at within your training team or the overall organization.  Everyone from the new intern to the experienced CLO needs to improve their ability to communicate complex ideas and concepts in order to influence others into action.  This is where Visual Language Theory comes into play. Kevin Thorn joins us to explore concepts on how to better communicate ideas and transform those ideas into a visual language. One of the most important aspects of this process (and coincidentally in our ID work) is extracting you and your stakeholders' ideas and converting them into a universal visual language that your target audience will clearly understand.  We'll discuss the entire process using old school "pen & paper" so that it's accessible to everyone including those professionals not interested in mastering new design tools.Join us for this session and find out how you can also get more in-depth instruction and training on these processes from Kevin at other events like DevLearn and StepAway.Desgin.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

The Organization Enablement movement is coming. But what is it? And how does this impact our role in corporate training learning and development?Since corporate culture starts at the top, here's a few questions to ask yourself.How are you facilitating growth in your organization? Do you define growth based on revenue? Or maybe it's based on the number of people in your organization.What if you defined it based on how your people are growing? Growth in fulfillment. Growth in satisfaction. Growth in impact.And what if you could enable, facilitate, create, and develop this growth?Mike Simmons joins us to answer these questions and help your organization make the transition. He will help us understand how organization enablement happens at the intersection of people, process, and technology.

Our Drink'n'Draw host, Kevin Thorn, recently took his family to Disney World and he sketchnoted the entire experience.  Of course he did.If you think this doesn't have any relationship or impact on your work, well, you'd be wrong.Analyzing business processes is a mandatory part of L&D work.  We listen.  We ask questions.  We watch. And then magic happens... poof... instructional objectives are written.While that may be how your stakeholders see it, we all know the invisible magic is often a struggle in organizing data and working through business processes that often don't make sense.  Most often these processes are trapped inside a SME's head and it's your job to get it out.  Understand it.  Document it. And then ask if that looks about right?You might already use a spreadsheet and outline the process, or maybe a flow charting app.  But have you ever just wanted to sketch it out and get the first draft visual done quickly in order to get their feedback?Kevin Thorn joins us and offers an opportunity for you to practice your sketchnoting skills this summer. You're taking a vacation anyways, so you might as well do a little professional upskilling at the same time, right?And after the August IDIODC break, we expect to see examples of your work ;)Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

The corporate 9 to 5 isn't for everyone, and never has been. In a post-pandemic world nobody is even really sure what "work" looks like any more. Are you going back into the office? Maybe, you're in the office for half the week and working from home the other half. Or maybe not. It's been a frustrating experience for many, and a liberating experience for others.Why liberating? Well, some IDs used their "pandemic time" to work on making their dream of freelancing become a reality. And you can too. It's never too late. But before you up and quit your corporate gig, you might want to think this through a little more deeply. You should at least start by freelancing on the side. Doing that can open all kinds of possibilities and prepare you for what's in store.We've asked Cara North to join us and help everyone figure out and plan their future in freelance. It's a road traveled by many, but few are truly successful. Cara has 5 Tips that will get you started on the right path, with the right mindset, before you take the leap.We hope you join us for this career-building conversation.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

Did you know the same percentage of employees who quit due to pay also quit for not having career advancement opportunities (63% - Pew Research)?We talk a lot about the technologies and processes used by instructional designers, but have you ever thought about how important your role is in providing career opportunities for others? It's easy to focus on the details of our work, and it's important to do so.  However, looking a little further down the road at the great impact of our work for other professionals will help us all see the greater importance of what we do.Don't think of your course development as just another training course. Think of it as building an opportunity for someone to improve their career, and their life, and those around them.Matthew Daniel, Principle for the Career Mobility Center of Excellence at Guild Education, joins us to talk about what it takes to improve talent mobility on the frontline and create meaningful career and life opportunities for essential workers.Matthew has a broad set of interests including:-Talent Reskilling & Upskilling-Corporate Learning Strategy and Transformation-Learning Technology Ecosystems-Learner Experience Research-Talent Development and Mobility-Future of WorkWe're excited to have this conversation with Matthew, and hope you join us!Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

If you're new to Instructional Design, or a more experienced L&D professional, you've probably seen the need for our skills spike recently.There has never been a better time to be an Instructional Designer. Job growth is predicted to be at the top of the list of professional careers. Emerging technologies and a systemic migration of our definition of a learning space has created a wave of innovation like nothing before. The talent and creativity necessary to perform this work has never been more demanding, and sometimes unforgiving.As we think about the future, and our role as instructional designers we are often left wondering where technology and good design best intersect. Is the latest fad in technology worthy of our interest, or just another one-hit wonder? In this new wave of learning design, this tension only gets more pronounced.Joining us this week is Chuck Hodell to talk with us about riding the ISD Wave. We'll focus on how to find the best design solutions for our learning populations based on the competing interests of technology and clients. And how finding that balance is not as difficult as it might first seem to be. Just like riding the pipeline at Oahu, the Supertubes of Jeffrey's Bay or the Mavericks in California; it just requires knowledge, timing and skill!Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.
