SB103 Using Mobile to Make On-the-Job Learning and Coaching Practical
12:00 PM - 12:45 PM Wednesday, June 10
New Possibilities
The development of workplace skills happens primarily beyond the traditional eLearning course through on-the-job experience and coaching by managers. Mobile technologies, the Experience API (Tin Can), and badges have made it practical to implement on-the-job learning. You’ll see how an on-the-job learning path was deployed on employees’ smartphones to increase speed to proficiency. They accessed video modeling and performance support at the moment of need. They used their phone’s sensors (camera, audio, video, and GPS) to capture evidence of work and submit it to coaches for feedback and guidance. The Experience API enabled tracking, learning analytics, and the awarding of badges.
