Easygenerator content authoring app

By

Here's another newer app that I just discovered. Maybe you already know about this one?

Easygenerator sounds like its name. Like many apps it can convert PowerPoint slide decks to e-learning.

The thing with these content authoring apps is always the price. If you work on a team it's more likely your manager would approve of subscribing to some sort of app. It's not cheap, though. Take a look at the pricing below. Also, if you work independently either for a small business or as a contractor, the $1000 annual fee needs to be factored into the ROI of your projects. Do you think these prices are reasonable or a bit out of reach?

    Hello! I have to tell you, I believe pricing anything over $100 is a scam!! We are already working within a digital space that allows us to do so much of what these companies try to make easier for us. Much of the time that we would spend in converting them ourselves would probably be spent in a different way through this app! The price is certainly out of touch even for companies!

The U.S. Distance Learning Association

By
 The USDLA is the oldest organization for distance learning   https://usdla.org/   They conduct research and have weekly podcasts as well as local/state chapters. Are any of you members or planning on becoming a member? Higher Education is one of the specialties I'm considering, so I want to check out this organization. However, this organization is not limited to just Higher Education -- their members include corporations, healthcare, and government. This past week they held their annual conference. They also offer a certification for universities to demonstrate their adherence to the 91 standards of the organization. Maybe this is something you would propose to a future university team to consider. Here's their monthly podcast about the future of distance learning: https://inkandescentradio.com/series/distance-learning-roundtable/

1099 solo representation

  If you work solo, you have a lot more control over the types of clients you work for and the types of projects you want to work on. Of course, this depends on the availability of work. If it's not readily available you may need to accept what the market bears. If you already have knowledge of one or more industries, this would be a good place to scout out opportunities. Let's say you used to work for a food cart. You were a cashier and then a cook and got to know a lot about your customers. Based on this you did some marketing as well and introduced new choices for the menu.  You could take this idea and produce instructional content for this industry. You'd need to market it to the food cart owners as well as individuals wanting to enter into this opportunity. Social media would be a great asset in this case. Is the idea of striking out on your own to set up shop as an instructional designer something you've ever imagined? What do you think are additional considerati...

Digital Pioneers?

By
     Social Media: who uses it, who is oblivious to it, and who masters it?    The generation you are part of may influence the degree to which you use social    media. Let's say you're a grandmother of three and you retired from the                 corporate world 15 years ago. Your grandkids are ages 2, 4, and 8. You live            three hours away from them and your daughter keeps you updated through         Facebook which you've mastered.    Your daughter uses Instagram and Snapchat with her friends to stay updated         with each other's kids. My question is: is the grandmother a social networker, a    digital native, a digital pioneer, or something else? What about the daughter?     The point is that a person's generational status doesn't define a person's social      net...
