She emphasized the need for professionals to evolve our mindsets, approaches, and methods so we can make the most of the technology we invest in. Technology today is ready to move learning out of the classroom, but learning design capabilities limit many organizations. As a designer, Crystal explained that once you have the know-how to design out of the classroom, you can finally take advantage of today's technology and make assets accessible, searchable, social, and engaging. Cue Learning Cluster Design!She says, "Don’t be afraid to question the status quo - whether that is in your own field, your leadership, your organizational culture. Questions that aren’t asked, aren’t answered. Persevere - as a friend once told me, we are building sandcastles of transformative change at the edge of the ocean. It’s okay if change doesn’t happen with the first sandcastle. There are many of us working on moving this big ship."Learn more and connect with Crystal here:https://www.linkedin.com/in/crystalkadakia/www.learningclusterdesign.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/learning-cluster-design/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeKBsY0J3i3K2hr7-RxK46g Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
