More importantly, to move to a process that can actually produce high quality learning experiences.  Yesterday at the ASTD ICE conference in Denver, he once again challenged us to leave ADDIE behind. But for what you ask? That&rsquo;s a great question (A question for which I sure hope you already know the answer&hellip;hint, hint).  Before we talk about WHAT to leave ADDIE behind for, let&rsquo;s discuss WHY you should leave ADDIE &ndash; and most traditional processes for that matter. These traditional processes have been churning out some disappointing training over the years. This disappointment is measured by the impact on the training departments, management, learners, and even shareholders.      Training departments spend too much money and time on training that has little, if any, impact on the performance of the learners.      Management is in the constant cycle of allocating ever diminishing budgets which are not adequate to build training that has any return-on-investment.     Learners are becoming disillusioned and unmotivated by the boring, lifeless click-through training to which they are subjected.     Shareholders are seeing their organizations miss opportunities to improve performance and efficiency, and therefore the bottom line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"diigo-tags\"><span>tags:<\/span>                        <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/nirtak\/addie\">addie<\/a>             <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/nirtak\/instructional_design\">instructional_design<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"diigo-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bigquestionsonline.com\/content\/how-might-video-games-be-good-us\">How Might Video Games Be Good for Us? | Big Questions Online<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"diigo-description\">By Jane McGonigal October 15, 2012  Is gameplay good for us? It&rsquo;s a question I hear daily from gamers &ndash; as well as from their parents, teachers, doctors, therapists, and pastors.  There&rsquo;s certainly good reason to ask this question. Collectively, as a planet, we now spend more than one billion hours every single day playing videogames &ndash; a total that&rsquo;s up more than 50% from just three years ago. Meanwhile, the average young person racks up 10,000 hours playing videogames by the age of twenty-one. (By comparison, they will spend just 10,084 hours in the classroom throughout all of middle school and high school combined.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"diigo-tags\"><span>tags:<\/span>                        <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/nirtak\/games\">games<\/a>             <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/nirtak\/research\">research<\/a>             <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/nirtak\/mcgonigal\">mcgonigal<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"diigo-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/news\/national\/material-on-work-computer-private-court-rules\/article573698\/\">Material on work computer private, court rules &#8211; The Globe and Mail<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"diigo-description\">Ontario&#8217;s top court has found a right to privacy in material contained on a work computer.

In June of this year, the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) celebrated the centenary of Alan Turing&#8217;s birth by holding a conference with presentations by more than 30 Turing Award winners. The conference was filled with unusual lectures and panels (videos are available here) both about Turing and present-day computing. During a break in the proceedings, I interviewed Alan Kay &mdash; a Turing Award recipient known for many innovations and his articulated belief that the best way to predict the future is to invent it.  [A side note: Re-creating Kay&#8217;s answers to interview questions was particularly difficult. Rather than the linear explanation in response to an interview question, his answers were more of a cavalcade of topics, tangents, and tales threaded together, sometimes quite loosely &mdash; always rich, and frequently punctuated by strong opinions. The text that follows attempts to create somewhat more linearity to the content. &mdash; ALB]<\/p>\n<p class=\"diigo-tags\"><span>tags:<\/span>                        <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/nirtak\/AlanKay\">AlanKay<\/a>             <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/nirtak\/interview\">interview<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"diigo-ps\">Posted from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.diigo.com\">Diigo<\/a>.
