Use this technique to evaluate emerging learning technologies.

Promise vs. Hype

Whether you are preparing to launch your first serious game or just looking to make your next initiative more successful, Sharon and Steven Boller offer these tips for a successful implementation.

7 Steps to an Effective Gamification Implementation

Each year, new learning technologies are touted as the next big thing in learning and development. Some have staying power, while others turn out to be passing fads. Even when a learning technology has a strong use case, poor needs analysis and half-baked implementation can lead to missed expectations and disappointed stakeholders. This session will demonstrate a tried and true methodology for evaluating new learning technologies. Using Articulate Rise 360 as a sample tool and the use of games for learning as a sample trend, we will walk through the technology evaluation process and demonstrate how an organization can evaluate new tools and techniques, create realistic use cases, and develop an appropriate proof of concept. Then, we'll discuss the learning technology landscape in 2018 and share our analysis and predictions on the latest tools and techniques.
