This preview focuses on the Innovative Mobile Learning Solutions track.

Grab this opportunity to learn some great tips & get a sneak preview of what it will be like to join the  Training’s Online Learning Conferenc. Each speaker will present a 15-minute condensed sample of their OLC content. Listen fast and you’ll learn plenty of useful tips even during this overview!

Part 1:
Incorporating Mobile Technology into mLearning Design and Development

Are you really taking advantage of what a mobile experience can offer?

Learn how mobile hardware like a microphone, camera, GPS, gyroscope or multi-touch screen can elevate the eLearning experience through new user interfaces and interaction types—far beyond what most mobile courseware does today.

Picture your learner listening to a recording of a customer pleading their case.

They’re invited to audibly respond using their microphone and their response is sent to cloud servers where it is analyzed for sentiment and keywords, and then the cloud delivers a dynamic customer response back to the learner.

Or, picture your learner being presented with a series of objects and having only 30 seconds to decide which are safe, then giving their phone a shake and having the dangerous items disappear.

Speaker: James Kingsley, (LinkedIn profile) Senior Technology Architect, eLearning Brothers

Part 2:
Story Sync for mLearning

The Walking Dead and Better Call Saul are AMC shows that both started off the same way—by telling viewers to login via their mobile devices to Story Sync.

Story Sync is an interactive experience that allows the viewer to engage with content from the show.

What does Story Sync have to do with mobile learning? Imagine, if you will, Story Sync for the classroom!

Matt will share how he used Captivate 9 with responsive design, PhoneGap, and Kindle Fires to develop Evolent Health’s Story Sync content to produce an engaging, interactive, and cutting-edge classroom experience.

Speaker: Matt Estes, (LinkedIn profile) Director of Instructional Design, Evolent Health
