Zebra’s Out of the Bag!

Two years ago, Allen Interactions showed Zebra publicly for the first time, at ASTD ICE. By sheer dumb luck, I was there. So were Diane Elkins and Desiree Ward, the owners of the company I now work for. I’ve been experimenting with Zebra in its various incarnations ever since, and recently have been working on Zebra resources for instructional designers for our E-Learning Uncovered website.

Yesterday, I (and I don’t know who else) received word that we can talk about it publicly, which I’ve been eager to do for quite a while. My first post on Zebra is live on the E-Learning Uncovered blog now, and there will be more over the next few weeks.

I look forward to your thoughts!

Thinking Outside the Toolbox

I am pleased to share that I have an article in today’s Learning Solutions Magazine.

It’s called Thinking Outside the Toolbox, and it’s been simmering for a couple of years as I’ve watched my own thought processes and had conversations with many others in our industry about our tools and how they relate to what we design and create. This line of thinking was also the basis for the Morning Buzz session I facilitated at the Learning Solutions conference.

I encourage you to add your thoughts. Enjoy!

The Latest E-Learning Uncovered Newsletter is Out!

AWP does a great newsletter for instructional designers (if I can brag on my peeps a little) through our E-Learning Uncovered site and the latest one has four reviews of design/development tools and resources you might be considering.

Check out the latest and be sure to also sign up to receive the newsletter directly. (Don’t worry, we won’t spam you… We wish we had time to write more often!)
