1. What You Build Is What You Get – Or is it?

Stage Name: eLearning Tools
Date and Time: Wednesday, March 16th @ 12:00 NOON

eLearning and mLearning Designers are experiencing a new challenge that mirrors an age-old challenge. In the 1980s, WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) was a challenge for computer users who saw one thing on their computer monitors but saw very different results when they printed their work. Today, the new challenge for eLearning and mLearning Instructional Designers is WYBIWYG (what you build is what you get).

What are the common elements that lead to WYBIWYG issues? What can you do to avoid them? Can you eliminate them? This presentation will help you understand how it happens, what to do to avoid it, and steps you can take to eliminate WYBIWYG issues entirely.

Speaker: Mark Simon, Principal Training Consultant at HiMark Solutions

2. The Great Debate: PowerPoint Versus Free-form eLearning Tools

Stage Name: eLearning Tools
Date and Time: Wednesday, March 16th @ 5:15 PM

There’s nothing like an election year to dive headfirst into a spirited debate, so iSpring friends Joe Ganci and Mark Simon will be doing exactly that. Joe will abandon political correctness to tell Mark exactly why free-form tools are infinitely better than PowerPoint tools, while Mark will campaign for PowerPoint users all over the world. Chances are that you’ve used one tool type or another – or perhaps you’ve used both – but do you really know the pros and cons of each? No matter what your political affiliation is, you don’t want to miss this one!

Speaker: Joe Ganci, President of eLearningJoe
Joe is considered a guru for his expertise in eLearning development, and he consults with clients worldwide. His eLearning tool reviews appear each month in Learning Solutions Magazine, and he has been the recipient of several awards for his work in eLearning.
