Reflections 2011
Clark Quinn
DECEMBER 21, 2011
On this, the shortest day of the year here in the northern hemisphere, it seems like a good time to reflect on the past year and look forward to the coming one. It’s certainly been an interesting year, and a good one personally. I feel there are lots of reasons to hope for good things to be coming too. The opportunities are big. First of all, mobile really has taken off.
2011 Predictions
Clark Quinn
JANUARY 1, 2011
For the annual eLearn Mag predictions, this year I wrote: I think we’ll see some important, but subtle, trends. Deeper uses of technology are going to surface: more data-driven interactions, complemented by both more structured content and more semantics. These trends are precursors to some very interesting nascent capabilities, essentially web 3.0: system-generated content.

George Siemens
MARCH 11, 2011
On Feb 28-Mar 1 a group of 100 researchers, administrators, and academics (from 12 countries) converged in Banff, Alberta for the 1st International Conference on Learning Analytics and Knowledge. Rather cold weather, at times exceeding -30C, drove most of the activities indoors. It was one of the most enjoyable conferences I’ve ever attended. We had an outstanding conference program (.pdf).

2011: Integration
Harold Jarche
JANUARY 1, 2011
I was asked to make some predictions for 2011 but missed the deadline. The big idea that is catching on and may take shape in 2011 is the integration of organizational support. Perhaps in 2011 these departments will wake up and start talking to other. Instead of predictions, I think there are some trends that may cross the chasm this year. This follows on a post I wrote a year ago that included this table: (2009). Innovators. Early Adopters. Crossing the Chasm. Technology.
