Battlefield Learning

In this Q&A podcast, I talk to Sarah Gilbert, who specializes in training strategy, design, and development at meLearning Solutions. In her PHII Academy director role at the Task Force for Global Health, she leads a team to create global solutions for public health informatics training challenges. Sarah also is an ATD facilitator for the Mobile Learning Certificate and Essentials of Mobile Development Using Adobe Captivate programs, as well as the event LearnNow: Mobile Learning in Action. Sarah talks not only about why practitioners need to know about mobile learning, but also what they need to know to succeed with their mobile learning initiatives.  She offers the analogy of how the Internet changed the newspaper industry. Mobile learning can potentially have a similar impact on learning and talent development. In essence, mobile is changing everything, because people have constant access to information—whether we like it or not. She reminds us that people are already using mobile technology to access information in other parts of their lives and work. It’s only natural that they will expect to access learning, performance support, and work-related information via mobile solutions. Therefore, practitioners need to understand the implications mobile has on learning, including:How do people access information differently?How do we design information differently, based on that access?Where do we store information?Does information need to be organized differently?How do we push information to workers? More importantly, practitioners need to consider what skills they need to design and develop learning solutions based on mobile access. Listen to the podcast to learn more about how mobile learning is affecting the learning industry—and what practitioners need to do address this evolution. And be sure to join Sarah online for the Essentials of Mobile Development Using Adobe Captivate® program.
