The Learning Empire

The inaugural episode of Truth in Learning. Meet Will. Meet Matthew. We introduce the show and share some of our goals and possible directions for the program. In the second segment, Will chats with the esteemed Connie Malamed about secrets of good L&D podcasting- something Will and Matt definitely need to learn! Connie wrote the wonderful book, Visual Design Solutions: Principles and Creative Inspiration for Learning Professionals. Before our third segment, Will takes a detour to share some research on brainstorming. In the third segment, Matt rails against those in the industry who claim that flawed learning tools and debunked models they like work- even in the face of contradicting evidence. Will and Matt use DiSC as a platform for the discussion. As an epilogue, Thiagi shares an oral essay on evidence-based learning. Share any comments you have below.  Check out Will’s new Learning Transfer Evaluation Model. Click here for Connie’s website. Along with tons of great information (including her book), you can also find her wonderful podcast, ELC, the eLearning Coach. Worth several listens!
