1. eBook Released: Learning Perspectives 2011: We are pleased to announce this year’s Learning Perspectives 2011 e-Book was just released in open source for your download and reading. We have articles from several dozen “30 Under 30” learning professionals, with their views on the changing nature of our field. In addition, Bob Baker, CLO of the MASIE Center, has a detailed perspective on the role of “Checklists” for the learning world. And, Nigel Paine and I have added articles about challenges in the field.  Download it at http://learning2011.com/ebook

2. CNN Video for Learning Experience - More Segments: CNN is leading a fascinating activity at our upcoming event. It’s called the CNN Video for Learning Experience and  2,000 people will practice gathering and editing stories using their mobile devices. To prepare for this, CNN has made several short video clips about producing simple story segments on a phone: http://www.learning2011.com/cnnvideo

3. Design Model - Welcoming & “Anticipatory Set”: How learners come to a learning experience has an enormous impact on the outcomes. I learned that from the work of Madeline Hunter, who called it “Anticipatory Set”. In our design model, we have been working intentionally on getting people ready for our Learning 2011 event. Here is another example: we produced a quick video yesterday from the lobby of our hotel, setting “anticipation” and framing the upcoming experience: http://www.learning2011.com/welcomevid
