Lisa B. Marshall is giving a talk on Web 2.0 Training at the local Philadelphia chapter of ASTD on May 12. You've probably heard about Web 2.0 and that some trainers have already delved into its abilities to improve training. If so, you probably want to learn more, but don't want to sound silly by asking. At this talk you will learn what exactly Web 2.0 is without asking a teenager. Lisa will discuss how trainers successfully use web 2.0 technologies in their training delivery and specifically, how trainers use Facebook, Twitter, blogs, podcasts, Flickr, LinkedIn, and so on to enhance the training process. Lisa will go over the advantages and pitfalls of Web 2.0 in the training and performance development arena, as well as touching on how trainers are exploiting the new Web 2.0 plug-ins for PowerPoint, such as Twitter polling, auto tweeting, and twitter ribbons. Don't miss it! To learn more, delve into Web 2.0 yourself and check out Lisa's linked in profile at http://www.linkedin.com/in/lisabmarshall.
