Understanding the Periodic Table of Elements via Video

Thanks to Cali Lewis of Geekbrief.tv for this excellent educational find.

The Periodic Table of Videos

Wow! Check out Sodium(Na) and Helium(He) - Very cool!

Here is a very Web1.0 version of the Periodic Table. Its from the Los Alamos National Laboratory.

Which one would help YOU not only LEARN but actually UNDERSTAND the elements?

SCORM2.0 - Speak Now or Forever hold...

How many of you know that SCORM is being updated? How many of you know that the SCORM standard is being moved from ADL to LETSI? You've all got busy day jobs and just trying to get the latest project out the door is enough. BUT, if you work with SCORM in ANY way, you should be dialed into the changes, and you probably are. Maybe I'm the last one to the table on this topic.

So in case you need to be caught up we are currently at SCORM 2004 Third Edition. And the next version that is being worked on is SCORM2.0.
White Papers are due by August 15, 2008
White Papers, comments, suggestions, and requests for information should be submitted by email to scorm2@letsi.org.
All submissions will be posted on this site for public comment, download, and on-line discussion. Submissions will be edited or summarized for distribution at an October workshop. Therefore, papers should be submitted under an appropriate Creative Commons license, or otherwise indicate that there are no IP constraints on their use.
Time is running out. So if you want to get your ideas heard about what SCORM2.0 should look like, then you need to submit them before the deadline.

DevLearn 2008 Conference & Expo - November 11-14 - San Jose, CA

Guild Summer Seminar Series 2008 - Learning in the 21st Century - August in Chicago


Mark Oehlert and I are gearing up for an outstanding 2 days of Collaborative Learning. Our colleagues Jeff and Clark are equally pumped for the second 2 days of Immersive Learning Simulations.
The cool thing for me is that I get to be there for all 4 days hanging out with the BEST in eLearning. Even better is that I expect to actually learn a lot from the attendees as well. That's my favorite part! Its a blast sharing my experiences with others, but both of these topics are so dynamic that the conversation that starts at events like this tend to last for a very long time. Just think about 4 full days fully involved in the cutting edge technologies that are changing our profession.

On a side note this seminar series will be 1 week before the 3rd anniversary of Corporate eLearning Strategies and Development. It just seems appropriate to celebrate it in good company over a few culinary delights. This is what I said 3 years ago on day 1 of this Learning2.0 adventure:

Thanks for stopping by Corporate eLearning Development. I chose the title because it can mean so many different things, and I hope to cover many topics that are so real to me at this moment in my career.

I've been wanting to start this for quite some time and the time has come. After presenting 2 topics at the eLearningDevCon2005 in Oregon, I have committed to making this blog and it's resources a reality.

I don't believe that many eLearning professionals, especially those under a corporate blanket, understand that the field as we now it is undergoing a drastic change we are not prepared for. I am constantly amazed at the number of seminars, conferences, and EdTech curriculums still preaching old school ISD and how to create all of the "elements of effective eLearning"...forget about it. I would urge you to consider updating your skills in graphics design, color theory, image manipulation, Interaction design, cartooning, comics, audio/video production, and story telling.

Please read the following books: Re-imagine! by Tom Peters, and A Whole New Mind by Daniel Pink...

I will be following this post with updates to the blog as well as other materials

2 more drowning deaths - Just another 4th of July in Arizona

Well, my 4th started out pretty good. We did the neighborhood parade again this year. While most people sleep in on the 4th we get up early and head over to the Arcadia 4th of July Parade.
My kids wanted to enter the contest this year, so they decorated a big wagon...that's "Emma" the new Landseer from the dog rescue. She's huge and slobbers a lot, but what a great dog! And they WON! Best Wagon. So proud.

So the day continues and I'm listening to the radio only to hear about a 2 year old near drowning last night who later died this morning, and another child drowning DOA this morning. So sad...and so frustrating.

If you are going to a lake, or bbq-ing around a pool, PLEASE keep an eye on your kids! If you don't have kids, watch someone else's for a while if you notice the parents slacking off a bit. Not sure what you should do? Then start here:

Safer 3 Educational Material Order Form

And I'll shamelessly plug my daughter Emma who will gladly come and speak about Drowning Prevention to your pre-K, K, 1st, or 2nd grade class, boy scouts, or girl scouts, or any other organization with kids.
