The ideal is getting to “just right*”…

• Just the right CONTENT, to

• Just the right PERSON, with

• Just the right PARTNERS, at

• Just the right TIME, on

• Just the right DEVICE, in

• Just the right CONTEXT, and

• Just the right WAY ………* not to be confused with perfection!!

The Snowflake Effect

MaSS PeRSONALiZATiON(Or if you insist on a prefix call it..)

meLearning!• Personalized Learning Experiences for every person every day

all 6.6 billion of us -- every day!!

• Just for me and just right: Time, place, amount, device, medium, way… On demand, adaptive

• Markets of one: Billions of Markets

• Learning in ALL forms: Formal AND informal not just online, on computer, on screen, etc, but every where, every time

“C-ing” the FutureContent Evolving toward a supply chain model Repositories, discovery, assembly Dynamic assembly NO RLO’s!!

Competencies Are following similar exponential curve and revolution as content Link to content objects

OBJECTIVES are the critical “connective tissue”!!

Context Location based learning Conditions Subjective metadata, pattern recognition, etc.

14

ns

“C-ing” the Future: Context “Context aware” learning & content assembly Context REMOVED from content

so it can be dealt with, manipulated, reused and developed by itself

Exploiting context opportunities based on “environments“ dedicated LMS and LCMS such as Blackboard, WebCT, SumTotal, OutStart more generic environments such as Office and Exchange, opportunities within operating systems such as Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.

Focus on the “learning environment” within which the learning (and working) takes place.

• Subjective metadata, pattern recognition, etc. Attention metadata Location based learning

NEEDS: (research, tools, utilities, services)

• Pattern recognition• Implicit and Inferred metadata• Visualization to process, see patterns• Equivalent of the music genome project for content and

context• Context REMOVAL (from content)• Synthesis and automation of “objectives”• Automation• Online/offline solution for CAM,

eg. Able to track my actions, behaviors, activities, whether off or online, as much on the desktop as the browser

• Standards for interoperability & mashups of CAM• Differentiating between WANTS and NEEDS• Optimizing discovery
