Learning Technology

The learning technology landscape — authoring tools, simulations, AI roleplay, and how to choose approaches that fit each step of the learning journey.

Learning Technology

What should AI actually do in learning?

How to use AI well in learning: accelerate designers instead of replacing them, know the pros and cons of live AI versus AI-built locked content, and orchestrate AI in one platform.

Learning Technology

What is a Guided Scenario?

A Guided Scenario is a learning experience where the learner enters a realistic situation, makes real decisions, and gets expert mentoring at each choice along one designed spine.

Learning Technology

Why do branching scenarios break down, and what's the alternative?

Why traditional branching simulations collapse under path explosion, review burden, and murky analytics, and how Guided Scenarios sidestep the tree entirely.

Learning Technology

How is scenario-based learning different from AI roleplay tools?

How scenario-based learning differs from AI roleplay tools like Yoodli and Second Nature: designed decision coverage vs. freeform rehearsal, and when each fits.

Learning Technology

What is immersive learning, and how is it different from traditional e-learning?

Immersive learning puts learners inside realistic scenarios where they learn to apply knowledge. How it differs from e-learning, and why no VR is required.

Learning Technology

What is the difference between game technology and gamification?

Gamification and game technology both come from games but do different jobs. The two definitions, the evidence for each, and a simple test for choosing.

Learning Technology

How do you put knowledge and its application in one experience?

When you build something new you can combine knowledge and application in one experience: deliver the knowledge as a podcast-style conversation, then set up a separate situation where the learner learns to apply it.
