Great job by Lom presenting his 830 project from last year. I did a much scaled down version of this idea for my introduction to learning theory class last year and it was very useful to see a more in depth version of using personalized and collaborative tools to influence learning.
Some key ideas that I took from his project:
1. He intended to measure success by transference, the highest level of Evaluation. Did these students achieve the desired outcomes of the program- not just a smile sheet.
2. How great is it to show your marketing director that you've got X number of students still actively involved and promoting your product, months or years after their experience. The best kind of advertising.
3. The focus on proper communication and scaffolding. Though still a work in progress, the idea was certainly to provide a level of tiered support to assist students with using their new tools. This is a case where if you simply build "it", they may not come. Support and scaffolding are key.
4. His bullet points at the end of thing he learned to be wary about during the process:
a)easy navigation
b)reduce redundancy
c)keep a unifying brand identity
d)teach with multimedia/interactive tools - not just words.
Things to keep in mind as I go forward.
