This week on The Good Practice Podcast, e-learning specialist, author and consultant Clive Shepherd joins Ross G and Owen to discuss the promise of e-learning.

Where has it succeeded? Where has it gone wrong? And with authoring tools now giving anyone the ability to create great e-learning, might the problem be... well... us?

We discuss:

  • the evolution of e-learning
  • the business barriers to effective e-learning
  • the opportunities created by personality, humour and storytelling.
