2. White Noise Maker Babble for Busy Workplaces.
3. Innovation Cycles for e-Learning: Article.
1. Malcolm Gladwell in Conversation at Learning 2005: I just received confirmation that Malcolm Gladwell, the author of the best selling book, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking, will be my guest at Learning 2005 for a conversation about the implications of first impressions on learning. We will have an interactive and intimate book club conversation with Malcolm. Check out the Learning 2005 blog at http://www.learning2005.com/blog/ for more details.
2. White Noise Maker Babble for Busy Workplaces: Get ready for "Babble", a new device which can attach to a telephone and suppress office noise or sit on your desktop and create white noise for more quiet in a cubicle space. These devices, which will sell for about $400, are the next wave of using computer technology to manufacture "helpful sound" or "silence" in work spaces. They have interesting implications for learning and collaboration in busy spaces. Babble will be marketed by Sonare Technologies, a division of Herman Miller. The announcement will be made on June 13th and will be posted on their website at http://www.sonaretechnologies.com/
3. Innovation Cycles for e-Learning: Article: Dick Carlson from Microsoft, one of my learning colleagues, sent me a link to a very provocative article about e-Learning innovation. While it mainly addressed e-Learning in higher education, it is quite provocative. Give it a read:
