Updated eLearning Trends In 2018—Featuring 4 Parameters To Help You Select The Right One!
In Jan ’18, I had created my eBook on eLearning trends. In June ’18, I decided to review the eLearning Trends And Predictions I had forecasted for 2018 to see how accurate my assessment was.
The Focus Of This Review
I looked at the trends from a different viewpoint—one that maps to the reasons why you should adopt any of these trends.
So, this is what I did:
- I identified 4 parameters during this review.
- To arrive at the required answer, my team and I reached out to our customers.
- Furthermore, I did extensive research to assess how the learningscape is across the world.
- Based on these pointers, I mapped my initial eLearning Trends and Predictions for 2018 to each of these parameters.
Here is the list of the 4 parameters that I used:
- Parameter 1: What trends reflect the approaches that align better with the way we learn?
- Parameter 2: What trends are successfully able to influence and improve employee performance?
- Parameter 3: What approaches can help us measure performance gain?
- Parameter 4: What approaches can help with ROI determination?
The Result?
- Of the total 18 trends that I had outlined in the first edition of my eBook on eLearning Trends And Predictions For 2018, I saw a clear resonance with 15 of them with respect to the feedback from our customers and my research.
- Additionally, the following two trends that were part of the “Emerging or Maturing—Watch out for” show the following levels of adoption:
- Limited adoption: AR/VR for immersive learning.
- Still futuristic: Artificial Intelligence or AI in learning.
- The last trend on Rapid eLearning tools was not part of my mid-year review focus. However, this adoption (notably Articulate Rise and iSpring) has caught eLearning developers’ attention in early 2018. My assessment is that this will continue to do so in the balance year too.
