Welche Website-Struktur ist besser: eine flache oder eine tiefe, hierarchische? Auf diese Frage gab Google jetzt eine Antwort: Es kommt auf die Größe der Website an. Kann ein Unternehmensblog auch in Google News erscheinen? Grundsätzlich ist das möglich. Es kommt aber auf die Themen im Blog an. Nachdem Google die Umstellung auf Mobile First abgeschlossen hat, gibt es keinen Änderungsbedarf auf Websites mit separater Mobil- und Desktopversion. Allerdings sollte über eine Umstellung auf Responsive Design nachgedacht werden. Google zeigt auf manchen Suchergebnisseiten ein neues Feature mit dem Titel "Websites zu Orten" an. Allerdings ist dieses Suche-Feature bisher nur auf SERPs von Google Österreich zu sehen. Wenn die Google Search Console für bestimmte Seiten anzeigt, dass diese durch "noindex" blockiert sind, dieses "noindex" jedoch im HTML-Code, das die Google Search Console anzeigt, nicht zu finden ist, kann das an der Verwendung von JavaScript auf der betreffenden Seite liegen. full Zum Ausklang des Jahres gibt es in der letzten Ausgabe des Jahres 2023 von SEO im Ohr einige SEO-Tipps und ein neues Suche-Feature. no

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.

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.

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.

Are you tired of hearing the term "gamification"? Do you even hear it that much any more? Was it just a trend that has finally passed?These are all questions for the master of games for learning, Karl Kapp. He's a regular contributor to IDIODC and we want to know what happened... and what's next.Dr. Kapp is well a well-known professor at Bloomsburg University. Many of his students have become names you recognize online and at L&D events. He's written books and is a popular LinkedIn learning instructor as well. 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.

Telling stories is a tried and true method for helping people learn. You've probably studied the traditional story arc, and the hero's journey, but have you ever tried the Sabido Method? Have you heard about it? 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.

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.

Sure you can find a lot of different free images on the internet, but there's always a project, or 2, that need that extra special custom graphic element. You could pay a graphic designer to create something, but that also comes with some headaches. Why not just learn to create it yourself?I think you'll be surprised as how easy it really is. And don't tell us that you aren't creative, or don't know how to draw. Kevin Thorn, from NuggetHead Studioz, regularly joins us to help you learn that, in fact, you are creative and that you can do this.We only 45mins to work with, but in that time Kevin will have you all creating your own graphic elements and show you how to use them in larger animated scenes.

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.

You may not know Aaron Silvers, but around here we affectionately refer to him as the OG of xAPI.  He has been driving it since its inception as Tin Can and worked tirelessly promoting the benefits for our community of instructional designers and L&D professionals.We'll talk with Aaron about the early days of xAPI and why it was necessary to create in a world dominated by SCORM.  And while SCORM will likely never go away, xAPI is finally delivering on the promise of flexible and specific data analytics for learning professionals.  We can do so much more than track completions, and butts in seats.  It's a great honor to have Aaron back with us on IDIODC and I hope you'll join us, and invite your entire team to meet, and learn from, this L&D Legend!Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.
