Mobile learning is coming. For some of you, it’s already here. We’re all trying to prepare ourselves for this monumental shift in the L&D industry—a shift from one-and-done e-learning to blended learning curriculums that are driven largely in part by a need for more reinforcement. We know how to teach, but getting it to stick is the hard part. And when you want to reinforce content, what better way is there than to make it accessible anytime, anywhere? 

 

移動(dòng)化學(xué)習(xí)的時(shí)代來了。對某些人來說，這種模式的學(xué)習(xí)可能已經(jīng)存在。我們都在為在學(xué)習(xí)與發(fā)展行業(yè)里程碑式的轉(zhuǎn)變做好準(zhǔn)備—從一次就結(jié)束的線上學(xué)習(xí)到由學(xué)習(xí)強(qiáng)化需求所驅(qū)動(dòng)的大部分混合式學(xué)習(xí)課程。我們很清楚如何進(jìn)行教學(xué)，但要堅(jiān)持一直跟進(jìn)學(xué)員學(xué)習(xí)才是最難的地方。而當(dāng)你想要強(qiáng)化學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)容時(shí)，有什么方法比讓學(xué)員能夠便利地隨時(shí)隨地獲取學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)容更好呢？

 

But going mobile isn’t easy. There are big challenges to overcome, some that we might not have any control over, such as limitations of our authoring tools or bulky, outdated LMS requirements. Maybe that’s why commercial web pages are so beautiful, functional, and responsive, while training is often… not. 

 

但是，要讓學(xué)習(xí)移動(dòng)化并不簡單。在這個(gè)過程中，我們需要克服許多大的挑戰(zhàn)，有一些挑戰(zhàn)可能還是我們完全沒有管控權(quán)的，比如授權(quán)工具的限制或是龐大、過時(shí)的學(xué)習(xí)管理系統(tǒng)的要求。也許這就是為什么商業(yè)網(wǎng)站網(wǎng)頁總是看起來很美觀、功能強(qiáng)大而且反饋迅速，而傳統(tǒng)的培訓(xùn)常常都做不到這些。

 

What Is the Mobile Mindset? 什么是移動(dòng)思維？

 

So what can we do? We can change the way we design and develop our learning.

 

那么我們能做些什么呢？我們能夠改變設(shè)計(jì)與開發(fā)學(xué)習(xí)課程的方式。

 

That’s where the mobile mindset comes in. The mobile mindset is a way of thinking that prioritizes mobile design best practices, whether you’re building a mobile learning solution or not. Research shows that the same design and development principles that help make something mobile friendly also make learning more effective and increase adoption.

 

這也是我們要應(yīng)用移動(dòng)思維的地方。移動(dòng)思維是一種不管你是否在創(chuàng)建移動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)解決方案時(shí)都始終以設(shè)計(jì)最好的移動(dòng)化學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)容為核心的思維方式。調(diào)查顯示，能夠幫助課程變得更加移動(dòng)化的設(shè)計(jì)與開發(fā)原則同樣也能夠使得學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)容更有效，學(xué)員的采納率也得到提高。

 

By explaining Gestalt Principles of Organization, sharing research on design’s impact on learning, and analyzing design choices on already successful mobile solutions, we can prepare you for the mobile future.

 

在闡明組織的格式塔原理、分享課程設(shè)計(jì)對學(xué)習(xí)效果影響的調(diào)查及分析已獲成功的移動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)解決方案設(shè)計(jì)方法后，我們就能準(zhǔn)備好迎接移動(dòng)化學(xué)習(xí)的未來了。

 

Be Like Water, My Friend 我的朋友，要像水一樣

 

Bruce Lee has a lot more to teach than just martial arts. In a moment of brilliant philosophy, he instructs us to be like water:

 

除了中國功夫，李小龍還教了我們很多東西，他提倡我們要，為人如水：

 

“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle.”

 

“你必須要無形無相，就像水一樣。當(dāng)你往杯子里倒水時(shí)，水會(huì)聚成杯子的形狀。而當(dāng)你像瓶子里倒水時(shí)，水又會(huì)聚成瓶子的形狀。”

 

This is exactly the kind of thinking we need to adopt when designing our learning solutions. It is the heart of the mobile mindset. Because it doesn’t matter whether you’re ready to launch a mobile learning solution today, even desktop solutions will improve if you take this approach.

 

這正是我們在設(shè)計(jì)學(xué)習(xí)解決方案時(shí)需要的思維，也是移動(dòng)思維的核心。這種思維的價(jià)值不僅僅在于你要開發(fā)移動(dòng)化學(xué)習(xí)方案，即便是桌面方案，如果你采用這種方法，效果也會(huì)得到改善。

 

When you design your e-learning to be in a fixed-width authoring tool shell, you’re building a house of cards that will only make it harder for you to have great learning solutions in the future. This is a simple example, sure, but it rings true. Even going beyond authoring tools, the basic graphic design of our learning solutions can be another rigid obstacle to designing great learning solutions. It’s important to be conscious of our space when designing e-learning. Keep in mind: just because you have a desktop monitor’s amount of space, does not mean you need to fill every inch of it. 

 

如果你只能在授權(quán)工具下的固定限制內(nèi)設(shè)計(jì)線上學(xué)習(xí)的話，你就仿佛是在建紙牌屋，這只會(huì)妨礙你后續(xù)的搭建工作，也就是妨礙你設(shè)計(jì)更好的學(xué)習(xí)解決方案。這個(gè)例子很簡單，但絕對是有道理的。即便你能夠超越授權(quán)工具的限制，所謂的學(xué)習(xí)解決方案的基本平面設(shè)計(jì)也會(huì)限制你的發(fā)揮。在設(shè)計(jì)線上學(xué)習(xí)項(xiàng)目時(shí)，非常重要的一點(diǎn)是考慮空間。我們一定要記住：不管你是不是只有一個(gè)桌面大的監(jiān)控空間，你都必須把學(xué)員的學(xué)習(xí)空間填滿。(本文于2017年發(fā)布，由培訓(xùn)江湖翻譯)
