Learning 2006 - Early Registration Now Open - www.learning2006.com.
1. High Definition Learning.
2. Dorothy's Destiny Runs Maiden Race Friday.
3. Ken Blanchard - Thought Leader at Learning 2006.
1. High Definition Learning: Pay close attention to the shift toward High Definition formats for media. Our recording, editing, broadcasting and viewing/display technologies are rapidly shifting to High Definition, allowing for more picture resolution, increased viewer control, additional data/information and easier storage. The MASIE Center believes that we will see an emerging High Definition Learning world. Here are a few
predictions:
* Learner Control of Perspectives: NASCAR fans can pick from any number of camera shots during a race. Imagine a learner being able to select from dozens of perspectives and zooms while learning about a mechanical or business process.
* Searchable Content: In a few days, I will post a report we just did from CNN's Pipeline headquarters in Atlanta. Watch for highly searchable storage of deep amounts of content on corporate servers. Imagine if you could capture dozens of meetings during a project and then instantly access content snips from key milestones as part of your summary.
* Globalization: The high definition formats will provide additional opportunities for multi-language and localization elements embedded in media content.
* Video-Conferencing Arrives: There are newer models of High Def Video Conferencing that will knock your socks off, overcoming some of the challenges of video and audio quality during real time collaboration.
The MASIE Center will have a High Definition Learning demonstration at Learning 2006, providing a view of what may be possible in a richer media world, with faster and more affordable content production/collaboration.
2. Dorothy's Destiny Runs Maiden Race Friday: As you may know, Cathy and I own several thoroughbred race horses. One of them, a cute 3-year-old filly, Dorothy's Destiny, is having her first (maiden) race on Friday at Belmont. She is named after my mom and is finishing up her learning curve on the world of racing. It is intriguing to watch the learning process of a horse and reflect on performance improvement in our field. If you would like to send her a note of support, she has her own email at the stable: dorothy@masie.com She'll send a picture for an email :)
3. Ken Blanchard - Thought Leader at Learning 2006: I am delighted to announce that Ken Blanchard, one of the leading management experts, will be a Thought Leader at Learning 2006. Ken and I will have a live video dialogue about the changing world of leadership development. Ken, the author of One Minute Manager and many other books, has a unique and passionate perspective on how organizations can develop their next generation of leaders. Ken and I will discuss how the world of leadership development may be shifting. Thanks, Ken, for supporting this unique event!
