Four-week online course

Guralnick's Course "The Future of Online Learning"

Brussels (BE), September 2013 - Technology is changing rapidly, and the possible uses of technology for education, training, and to improve job performance are seemingly endless. But technology-based solutions are not always successful for one reason or another. As the world of online learning and performance changes, learner expectations change as well.

In this four-week online course, eLearning pioneer Dr. David Guralnick will explore the following questions:
•    What new technologies are likely to have an impact on the field of online learning? 
•    How can you harness the power of new technologies in your organization, and make the best use of them?
•    How can research in cognitive science and education inform the design of educational products?
•    How can you take advantage of technology to develop new methods to improve learning and performance?
•    In what ways can you best use the power of stories and create emotionally engaging experiences that improve learning and
performance?

Through a series of product demonstrations, readings, and discussions, Dr. David Guralnick will explore these questions, and more.
