1. Virtual Frog Dissection
2. Byte Wars: Ed Yourdan at TechLearn
3. Practice Tests On-Line
1. Virtual Frog Dissection: Froguts is an intriguing on-line frog
dissection application. e-Learning that might save a few frogs and even a
few fainting high school science students: http://www.froguts.com
2. Byte Wars: Ed Yourdan at TechLearn: Hot off the press is a new book by
technology futurist and analyst, Ed Yourdan. "Byte Wars: The Impact on
September 11th on Information Technology" This is a great read about
risks and thinking of IT security and capacity in a new context. I was so
taken with the book that we have invited Ed Yourdan to present a keynote
on this topic at TechLearn 2002 in October. http://www.techlearn.com
3. Practice Tests On-Line: A daughter of my business partner visited last
weekend and talked about taking the Medical Boards, MCAT, which are
required for admission to medical school. As a graduating senior, she is
exploring her career options, with this tough test as one of her decision
points. We talked about taking some simulated tests and I went to the web
to see what was available for e-Learning assessment and coaching. If you
would like to see what a test-prep site looks like, spend some time at
http://www.e-mcat.com It would be interesting to think about using this
model for key competencies in our organizational learning efforts.
