A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

From Roger C. Schank one of the most highly respected thinkers, writers, and speakers in the training, learning, and e–learning community comes a compelling book of essays that explore the myriad issues related to challenges faced by today′s instructional designers and trainers.

The essays offer a much–needed perspective on what trainers do, why they do it, and how they do it. Lessons in Learning, e–Learning, and Training serves as a barometer to the issues that often perplex trainers and helps to illuminate three main points: what can and cannot be taught; how people think and learn; and what technology can really effectively provide. In addition, each essay is filled with practical guidance and includes a summary of ideas, tips and techniques, things to think about, checklists, and other job aids.
