Reusable Learning Objects : Redefining Reusability. You can’t work in this field for very long without hearing about the promise of reusable learning content. The reusability promise is that technology and "content chunking" will reduce the costs and development time for e-learning by allowing the reuse of content in multiple courses. Although reusing content across courses may provide cost savings to developers, this limited definition of "reusable content" shortchanges the potential impact of reusable objects on how we support our organizations. 1, record 3, English, - reusable%20content

There's no single team structure to use when assembling, motivating, and rewarding an e-learning development team. But there are specific roles that team members must perform. E-learning teams need people with technical expertise, subject matter knowledge, and interpersonal skills who are willing to learn. More important, teams need strong leadership that can bond this group of diverse talent. In addition to project managers, the e-learning team includes instructional designers, graphic artists, videographers, animators, writers, programmers, quality controllers, and subject matter experts. Each team member has a specific set of tasks and duties to perform. 2, record 6, English, - e%2Dlearning%20team

Chunking. Training is delivered as 5-20 minute ’chunks’ of material. This is short enough to maintain the student’s attention without multimedia ’sparkle’. The chunks are pulled from a structured curriculum. Each chunk has pre-requisite chunks and recommendations on further choices from the curriculum. The chunks that are delivered are determined by the student’s individual development plan. 3, record 7, English, - chunking

Les modules de formation en ligne sont habituellement conçus comme des éléments simples, composables de la demande en fonction du niveau de compétence individuel de l'apprenant et de l'objectif final qu'il vise. En fonction d'une évaluation de départ, il est ainsi possible de tracer un cursus personnalisé de modules que l'on assemble, comme des briques, pour conduire l'apprenant au plus près de ses besoins, en évitant les redondances thématiques ou pédagogiques auxquelles n'échappaient pas les cursus traditionnels. C'est ce qu'on appelle la 'granularisation' de la formation. 1, record 7, French, - granularisation

"A knowledge market is a place where knowledge is traded. "It seems very obvious but the idea of selling knowledge is seldom considered. Examples of knowledge markets are : auctions, stores, expert knowledge or question and answer exchanges, intellectual property exchanges, investment knowledge exchanges, e-learning exchanges, community oriented networks, intellectual capital exchanges, vertical or industry-specific markets, and B2B knowledge exchange. The reasons behind these markets appeal are diverse : better market access, precision matching, more transparency, and the possibility of knowledge co-creation and development. The factors to a successful knowledge market, as well as the common pitfalls, lead us to the next chapter, which talks about productizing knowledge. 2, record 8, English, - knowledge%20market
