1. Research Scholarships for Learning: Where is all the research on
learning? Every day, our office gets a call about the lack of good
research on the effectiveness of e-Learning and other new models. This
year, The MASIE Center and the e-Learning CONSORTIUM will be making their
annual TechLearn “charity donation” to a new project focused on supporting
PRACTICAL research in our field.
We will be donating $35,000 at TechLearn 2002 in October to several
graduate or doctoral students, as scholarship grants, to conduct research
on key topics needed by our field.
A sample grant might be $10,000 to a doctorate student to conduct a study
on the attitude of learners about starting and not completing an
e-Learning course. These projects will be completed in time to be
presented at TechLearn 2003 and published reports in the public domain.
All participants at TechLearn this year will have input into the selection
of these research projects. If you are a faculty member or graduate
student interested in information on this program, send an email to
amd@masie.com
2. Where Do I Go To Start Learning? Where does a learner start an
e-Learning experience? Do they go to a website called My Learning and
start or resume a learning module? Do they go to a specific URL for that
course, which may have arrived in an email, clicking and launching? Is
there an icon on the desktop that displays a learner's current courses?
Should learning be launched right from a worker's calendar program? We
would love your experience and ideas on this topic. Can you send me an
email to emasie@masie.com and we will roll this up into an article in a
few weeks.

"In time of drastic change, it is the learners who inherit the future.
Those who have finished learning find themselves equipped to live in a
world that no longer exists." Eric Hoffer
