This is an interesting use of a blog - Mark Oehlert uses the comments area to conduct an interview with Murry Christensen, e-learning specialist for Goldman, Sachs & Co. The discussion ranges from William Gibson to the future to learning objectives, and more. Writes Christensen, "At a very simple level, the idea of "Learning Objectives" needs to be re-thought. The objective of a program--perhaps better thought of as the justification ('why is this worth spending time on?')--may be different at different times and for different people in different contexts." It would be interesting to know how many people in this field have actually read Gibson. If they haven't, they should.
