This presentation was given at the LEARNX conference in Sydney on July 27th, 2007. The main audience for this conference is corporate and government training, so I adapted my comments accordingly. The focus was on general innovation in e-learning, but included Learning Design as a topic and LAMS as a brief case study.

The title was "What's Next?: Innovation in E-learning Techology", and the abstract was:

As e-learning becomes more widespread, there is a rising demand for new approaches such as Web 2.0, the use of blogs and wikis, Learning Design and podcasting. This presentation discusses recent innovations in e-learning as well as the internet and general, and explores how these developments will impact on education and training over the coming years. In particular, it considers the nature of different innovations, and how some will represent incremental advances on current practice, while others will result in more disruptive innovation that may have long-term benefits, but result in short term challenges. The presentation gives you an understanding of recent innovations in eLearning technology and how these relate to current education and training practice. The presentation will also consider the nature of these innovations in terms of their impact on organisational culture, particularly in terms of the challenges of managing disruptive innovations.
