We have a definition problem. Not everything we call “elearning” is about learning. We buy an “elearning” application to build our “courses” so we end up calling everything an elearning course. But the reality is that the elearning applications let us build interactive multimedia content that may or may not have the objective of learning.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Pharma & Healthcare Industry has always been identified among the top adopters of innovative & meaningful learning technologies and similar trend is now being observed for the 'Tablet / iPAD based Learning' too. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I am really impressed to see some of the business use case, these people come up with and always ready to invest their time & money in it with all faith on the positiveness of the outcome. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As 'Tablets' are considered to be the life savers and so as in L&D function too, Tablet / iPad devices have solved many deadlock issues for the Pharmaceutical & Healthcare industry.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Reaching to a wider audience & keeping them enageged with your most recent update is the thing on which this industry spends whooping almost 1/3rd of their sales revenues!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So to optimize or increase the ROI of this spend was a key challenge for the leading players, however recently some of the serious organizations have leveraged Tablet devices very efficiently for their sales reps, medical reps and medical practitioners. They have been successfully found the way working for them finally. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">From L&D perspective, if I really keep it short and tell you, what they have done is nothing but the below 3 things: </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">1. eBook out of PDFs/PPTs/DOCs etc </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">2. Explored Tablet based App Potentials - specially for live updates </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">3. Adoption of Platform Agnostic Format / HTML5 </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">With the lot of research on finding out the ideal device to adopt to deliver the elearning content to various types of learning audience for all types of training types, we could arrive to a point where we can see Tablets solving the problem. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">You may go ahead with any specific vendor from here onwards...say Apple-iPAD, Samsung-Galaxy or MS-Windows or anything else exists in this world; it would not really matter much. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">A. Learning Audience: they can come from kindergarden, senior secondary, Colleges, Universities, Corporate Universities, VET, Professional Ed, On-Job trainings, etc. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">B. Training Areas: Content can be of any nature softskills, technical, Compliance, Inductions, Product Trainings, Process Trainings, and what not.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">C. Module types: it can simple courses, learning games, scenarios based learning modules, Simulations, 2D/ 3D Animations, Virtual Tours, Virtual Classrooms, Video based elearning content, Knowledge checks, Assessments, and anything remains. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Considering ABCs of learning domain, Tablet based learning is coming up as an impact. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Adoption of these devices are fastest in the history of any technology devices. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">On top of all these favorable points about tablets, one has a choice to deliever the content in multiple formats, say web based modules, native app based applications or as a hybrid app.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Mobile learning is not about designing and developing the learning content as per the mobile devices or ipad or tablets... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I have been observing this for quite sometime now, people are getting misguided by some impatient immature.</span></div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I was talking to one of my prospective clients, who reached out to me in response to my campaign I sent out last week on mobile learning enablement; I was understanding the scenario n their elearning plans for the year. N was stuck when she (prospective clients) said 'they want us to create content for ipad as they want to do mlearning too'. I realized and we spent next 15 minutes on a discussion which led to this statement.. 'I want to create content for my users who are mobile, possibly they will access the learning on ipad or their own smart phone.' </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Point is in having a clarity on what we really want to achieve when we wish to grow with technology. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you proceed with the first objective statement i.e., designing elearning for ipad... You are yourself giving a birth to a new problem... Are you really sure that nothing gonna come after ipad as a device? Apple is very much open to come with say something like i****..which can be another revolutionary device or platform and highly useful for elearning... Then what.. Are you going to again redo and design the ipad course as per new technology available....? Seems training budgets are not assigned to the LnD division but to the elearning vendor revenue account. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Imagine now, if objective statement is second one i.e., designing elearning for learners who are mobile... That means forever these learners would be able to learn what your are delivering irrespective of what Apple, Google or Microsoft or anyone else are launching tomorrow. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Elearning industry is preparing itself for future proof content, at least for next 5 years your content should be insured. </span></div>

.....this just clicked in my mind when I was reading an interesting article on
the learning technologies transformation on one of the popular website couple
of days back. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I
have been hearing this for quite sometime now, everyday you must also be having
at least 8-10 emails from various sources, claiming to be the indigenous and
bragging about this technology and it's implications on learning and training
industry. Not devaluing anyone of them but it just don't help the recipient in
any way. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Reason
is, they are making this world too complicated and frightening the people
unnecessarily with flash & HTML5 game. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Since
last 2 odd years, don't you think we have discussed too much on the pros and
cons of both these technologies....we started with the visual experiences, then
device & OS support, then Responsive & Adaptive Designings, iPAD/Tablet
era, Mobile Learning trends, and what not. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I am
not going to write anything great today but just would try to keep it simple,
as simple as my expansion of the abbreviation HTML5 above. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I may
not sound great technologically but even then it would make some sense to you,
as the intention is to help and to pull helpless! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Here
You Go with my simple 5 reasons on having HTML5:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><b>1.</b></span>
HTML5 is like water...75% of your body (eLearning mix) should be made of it,
else you are not healthy (training ROI). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><b>2.</b></span>
HTML5 is like Oxygen in Air (you may see Flash is Nitrogen) .....al though
Nitrogen is 78% and Oxygen is just 21%....even then it is essential. [it's not
about what is less seen or found is not popular or not needed] <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><b>3.</b></span>
Origin of Flash is from Future+Splash, and it has actually splashed the future
of eLearning...and HTML5 has come out of that splash, which is future. HTML is
a 22 year old, well matured young, enthusiastic & energetic
technology. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><b>4.</b></span>
HTML & Flash are almost like Google & Microsoft now ...choice is
yours...both works well, but even then you pick one over another...I know, I
don't have to be that dumb to help you choose. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><b>5.</b></span>
HTML5 & Flash decision is not at all about the iPAD/iOS or tablet or mobile
based learning....it's a way beyond platforms. If someone comes to you telling
that you should adopt HTML/HTML5 because it is best way to enable mLearning or
first step to your mobile learning initiatives...please beware of such half
cooked stuff, as consumption may lead to indigestion! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hope
I have helped you gain some confident information on HTML5 buzz. :)</span><span style="font-family: Calibri Light, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
