So, I guess now it is about knocking each 'disadvantage' (or challenge as you say) on the head, one by one.<br><br>LMS developers are already working on making their platforms more interactive and social by incorporating more social networking type features. Computer illiteracy figures are only getting lower, Gen Y who are all about technology are storming through the employment ranks and and it won't be long before they are the majority of the workforce. Plus, hosted LMS' are bringing costs right down to a model based on usage.<br><br>So I would definitely agree with you that it is more about overcoming 'Challenges', than this being a list of eLearning 'Disadvantages'. I view it as the trainers wish list, so we LMS providers should take heed!<br><br>Cheers,<br>Nicole FougereNicole Fougerehttp://www.litmos.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5872191505091733640.post-35551873429844127662009-03-25T14:40:50.000-07:002009-03-25T14:40:50.000-07:00I've been thinking about the 'Challenges&#...I've been thinking about the 'Challenges' the trainers brought up so much that I decided to write a blog post to debunk them!

As with any mode of learning — be it classroom-based or a conventional Computer-based Training — at the end of the day, the value of any mode of training falls right at the feet of the learner. And as a company, isn’t it in our best interest to give them options? I threw a few thoughts on this over on my blog as well - http://shanemurphy.wordpress.com/2009/03/30/e-learning-its-one-of-many-options-not-the-only-option/Shane Murphyhttp://www.baldtrainer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5872191505091733640.post-83978308114623393622009-04-03T18:01:30.000-07:002009-04-03T18:01:30.000-07:00I think classroom training is best when student in...I think classroom training is best when student interaction is an important part of the learning process, as in sales training. For other types of training elearning seems to fit the bill very well. Interesting results though.Lela Donelsonhttp://www.sparetimescholar.comnoreply@blogger.com
