Last month in the Financial Times, noted futurist Alvin Toffler is quoted:

“Standardised education is among the slowest institutions to adapt. If you were a cop monitoring the speed of cars going by, you would clock the car of business, which changes rapidly under competitive pressures, at 100 mph. But the car of education, which is supposedly preparing the young for the future, is only going at 10 mph. You cannot have a successful economy with that degree of desynchronisation.”

One of the major value propositions we strive for at NanoLearning is enable people to create learning faster. Speed is critical in business today, and sometimes there isn’t time to engage the training or learning organization. Today’s rapid learning tools are just replayers of annotated Powerpoints, screen captures, or video sessions. They are not very interactive. We let end users create flash-based interactive learning activites using a “wizard” approach. This way learners interact and engage, becoming active participants in the process.

You will be amazed to see what you can create in just five minutes.
