the failing of "e-learning culture"
... again at Learning Circuit: Peter Isackson taregting the "failing of e-learning culture", with good discussion (Masie himself, among others). I don't share the general view on technology, but I certainly agree very much with the main point:
"Listening to Eliott Masie correctly telling me (through an audio feed) that memory sticks will allow all sorts of things that no one could have imagined made me realize why I seriously doubt that any of what he describes will ever make an impact on learning. I feel exactly the same way about games, simulations and all kinds of “ideal” and idealized content (and I’ve spent twenty years of my life designing, producing and publishing the stuff). It all makes sense… but, when all is said and done, it just doesn’t seem to take off, even though we can usually get it to work (and even prove that it can produce results)."
