Judy Brown, Tour Guide
For the mobile learning section of the tour, we will be talking about the opportunities and benefits in using devices our learners are already carrying for various types of learning. The topics / presenters will be:
Overview/Introduction – a quick scan of the current and future environment
- Judy Brown, Mobile Learning Strategic Advisor, mLearnopedia
Innovative Podcasting – Introduction of research and an example of improved audio communications

Bob Mosher, Tour Guide
In the Performance Support tour we will be looking at technologies and approaches which bring learning directly to the learner’s “moment of need”. Performance Support offers a unique opportunity to go beyond learning and acquiring knowledge directly in the context of doing work. 4 case studies will be shared. The topics / presenters will be:
Overview/Introduction – a overview of the PS learning landscape and some overall design principles which need to be considered
- Bob Mosher, Chief Learning and Strategy Evangelist, LearningGuide Solutions US
Electron Performance Support integration – 2 examples of highly guided and integrated Performance Support environment for IT applications and the DoD.
- Dan Peay, Transcensus
Performance support for Processed based learning – Two more examples of PS used for helping support Medical Devices and On-boarding.
