Mohive Q4/2010 Newsletter

In our last newsletter of 2010, Lars Unneberg voices a concern about complexity in e-learning, and argues the benefits of keeping things simple. We have two items on video: details of a Mohive course that demystifies the process of creating video elements for e-learning, and Pat Kyle’s Tips & Tricks on getting the most out of professional actors. Marie Söderberg explains how the LanguageWire service helps deliver ‘true localisation’. We also have a report from CrossKnowledge on the take up of Mohive in France. Finally, there’s a report on the Mohive User Group – where 60 of us got to connect and share experiences. The next chance to meet up will be at Learning Technologies on January 26th and 27th. Drop by Stand 74, we’d love to see you. As ever, if you find anything that you read here useful, please pass it on.

 

Sincerely,

The Mohive Team


International communication made easy

’True localisation’ goes beyond simple translation, it preserves the tone and meaning of your e-learning for global audiences. Managing localisation across multiple languages can be a real headache, which is why we added ’one click’ access to the LanguageWire translation service from within Mohive eLPS. Here, Marie Söderberg explains the LanguageWire offering in more detail.


Sharing the love

The quality of the conversations and knowledge-sharing at the recent Mohive User Group event has encouraged us to set up an online forum where all Mohive users can interact and share best practice. Find out what went on at the User Group here.


Tips & Tricks - Dramatic necessities

By Patricia Kyle PhD, Director, LearnAbilityTM and Mohive Partner

But working with actors, and getting the best out of them, has its own challenges. Pat offers her top 10 tips on getting maximum impact from professional actors.


French customers choose Mohive Coach

E-learning has been slow to catch on in France, but this is starting to change. According to Cédric Merland of CrossKnowledge, there’s a growing appetite for Mohive eLPS, and new French customers are getting great value from the Mohive Coach process as an effective way to kick start internal rapid e-learning projects...


Keeping it simple

By Lars Unneberg, MD, Mohive

E-learning projects often become unnecessarily complex and lose sight of their business objectives in a rush of ‘creativity’.

Lars examines a few of the reasons this comes about and argues the case for greater simplicity. 


Demystifying video

Getting to grips with video can be a little daunting for anyone unfamiliar with the business end of a video camera. A new Mohive e-learning course – Level 1 Video – shows how anyone can achieve great results for their e-learning course, even with very simple video content. Get an overview of the course and link to it here.
