My schedule these days is busy enough that I’m not always able to take part in the weekly eLearning Challenge over on the Articulate Forums.

Free Animated GIFs to Motivate Your Learners
This week’s eLearning Challenge on the Articulate forums was to create an animated GIF image file.

Check Out My eLearning Portfolio Right Here On My Web Site!
David Anderson, that clever devil also known as Community Manager over at the Articulate Forums, has gotten me hooked on his eLearning Challenges. Time doesn’t always permit me to join in, but I did last week, and here I am again this week. Maybe it’s the start of a trend. This time the challenge was […]

This week’s eLearning Heroes’ Challenge on the Articulate Forum (Challenge #47, for those of you who are counting) was to create a quick sample of a call center module. After all, sooner or later most customers have a need for some form of call center training. Thanks, moderator David Anderson, for another great challenge! Since I […]
