6+ years and counting and this post is still getting views and comments (here I am!)

I’ve been working on an integrated, platform agnostic ‘spaced/nudging/automated/repetition etc etc’ for just over a year now and have been doing as much research as I can around the subject (hence me discovering this old post from your good self), I’ll keep up the research and will no doubt come across future posts from yourself.

Feel free to drop me a DM via Twitter if you’d like to take a look at it sometime.

Craig

They really have to rely on what’s in their head.

Having said that, after learning about Positive Deviance and completing a MOOC on crash creativity through Stanford University’s Venture Lab I’m in the process of reframing the problem. I’m sure it’s going to take some time but I’ve starting counting (anything) and asking questions. So maybe a job-aid is possible. I think it’s cool (though a little scary) to say that I don’t know, at this point, how things might turn out.

Amazing.

The main purpose of most advertising is to remind the consumer of the brand’s existence and value proposition. It seems similar techniques would be effective in “nudging and reminding” learners.

Mobile and web technologies are particularly suited to providing prompts, nudges and reminders to keep people up to speed with what they’ve learnt. Will Thalheimer’s practice model is useful, but there are others which simply prompt people to remember what they have learnt. As you say, hopefully this is the beginning of awareness that will become industry standard.]]> Clark, it’s great to see that we’re extending the use of learning technologies beyond simply replicating the classroom intervention.

The most successful systematic changes in behaviour I’ve seen have all had training events accompanied by the installation of triggers in the work environment so that people recognise what of their new skills they need to use and when. Mobile technology offers new, wonderful, low cost ways of enabling such triggers. In the future, we will increasingly become less tolerant of training events which do NOT come with some form of post-event trigger and support.

Is this an opportunity for a job aid? How much can be in the world instead of in the head?

Thanks for providing the info. Question: Does how the Learning (event) happened (ILT, elearning, etc) happen figure into it? At the basic training academy here I do development months can pass from the (course) event to putting it to use in the field. How much time passes over the X axis?
