Learning Resolutions: Make it Instant, Personal and Difficult

There are three things that I want to see evolve in elearning over the course of 2013:

  1. Personalization by the Learner (ability to drive sequence, modality and collaboration)
  2. Increased Rigor/Difficulty in Assessment (let the learner “fail” more on the way to success)
  3. Access to Real-Time Expertise (video chat with peers or teachers embedded in elearning)

Editor's note: 

When asked for his learning resolutions for 2013, the incomparable Elliott Masie shared resolutions for the entire learning & development community - outlining not just what he will do, but a framework for where we should all push our practice in the next year. What do you think? Has he identified the right priorities for 2013?
