Adaptive learning is a methodology that strives to personalise courses, utilising a large amount of data to enable learners to progress.<\/p>\n
An add-on is a module added to an application to provide new features.<\/p>\n
We describe a course as asynchronous when learners participate at different times. Learners study according to their own schedule, at their own pace and without real-time interactions with the teacher.<\/p>\n
ATAWAD (Any Time, Any Where, Any Device). This acronym is used to describe flexible learning which can be done anywhere and anytime.<\/p>\n
This is a more complete version of ATAWAD, with the addition of AC which stand for Any Content, and which places an onus on the diversity of available content, accessible anywhere and anytime.<\/p>\n
Augmented reality is the incorporation of virtual elements into physical world videos made using a digital device (a telephone for example).<\/p>\n
Authoring tools enable trainers to come up with and create e-learning content for students. The training content can thus be designed and disseminated.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
B<\/h2>\n
This is a kind of hybrid learning, combining e-learning and in-person instruction. A blended approach offers learners a comprehensive and multimodal training course.<\/p>\n
Business intelligence is a decision-making technology utilising digital tools to collect data in order to help companies enhance their performance.<\/p>\n
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is a policy that allows employees in an organisation to use their own devices, (PC, telephone, tablet computer) for work-related activities. This setup reduces costs for companies, while employees are able to use devices they are familiar with.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
C<\/h2>\n
Collaborative learning is an educational approach based on a community, in which every member of an organisation passes on their knowledge and skills to others. Collaborative learning is closely related to social learning and peer-learning.<\/p>\n
Corporate Open Online Courses (COOCs), are online courses provided for professionals and therefore by companies, unlike MOOCs which are open to all.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
D<\/h2>\n
A subset of Artificial Intelligence (AI), this Machine Learning technique teaches a computer to learn automatically in a highly accurate manner, using a more complex information network and inspired by neural networks.<\/p>\n
Digital escape games are based on the same principle as classic escape games. They offer a means of exploring a scenario to discover objects, links and codes or a series of enigmas to reach a defined objective (to unlock content, find treasure, etc.). Digital Escape Games are increasingly used to gamify learning or to raise awareness about a specific subject.<\/p>\n
Digital learning is a 21st century instructional practice using digital developments to offer more efficient and enriching learning experiences for students. The definition encompasses both e-learning and in-person instruction, relying on digital tools (computer, telephone, etc.).<\/p>\n
Distance learning is in contrast to classroom learning, which, by definition, means being present in a given location. Distance learning enables users to engage in activity remotely (work, courses, etc.) The term is increasingly used since the advent of teleworking.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
E<\/h2>\n
E-learning (short for electronic learning) refers to digital instruction. E-learning is largely synonymous with distance learning.<\/p>\n
An acronym coined by J\u00e9r\u00f4me Wargnier, as he sought to define the keys to optimal mobile learning training. The ELPA model comprises 4 phases: Engage, Learn, Practice, Apply. To find out more about this topic, click here.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
G<\/h2>\n
Gamification is the use of video game or mobile game mechanics to create an engaging and challenging user experience. Gamification is a pillar of modern learning.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
H<\/h2>\n
Hard skills refer to technical skills, such as command of a foreign language or software. This know-how focuses on the employee\u2019s activity rather than on their way of interacting and working with others.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
I<\/h2>\n
Using virtual reality, learners can be placed in a 100% virtual environment. Developments in Immersive Learning are highly anticipated and provide an insight into possibilities concerning roleplay activities.<\/p>\n
In-class learning, as opposed to distance learning, means physically attending a course or an event.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
K<\/h2>\n
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are implemented by each organisation in their various departments in order to gauge the performance of accomplished actions, with the aim of improving or modifying them.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
L<\/h2>\n
The Learning Content Management System (LCMS) is a digital training platform that allows administrators to create content to contribute to online courses.<\/p>\n
A learning company is an organisation which engages in a process of management and HR practices which aim to further develop learning within the company. This culture of learning enables organisations to improve their economic and social performance.<\/p>\n
The definition of the Learning Engagement Platform (LEP) is similar to that of the LMS and LXP; while placing a greater onus on user engagement.<\/p>\n
A Learning Management System (LMS) is a digital training platform deployed by employers and aimed at learners.<\/p>\n
The learning experience platform is an AI-driven platform which offers learners a more learner-centric experience than the LMS.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
M<\/h2>\n
A metaverse is a parallel universe, or a fictitious, virtual world. The metaverse can be accessed using virtual reality (VR) and opens up training possibilities, in particular as regards putting learned concepts into practice.<\/p>\n
Micro learning delivers content in short, specific bursts to facilitate learning. Engagement in this type of training is therefore greater as it does not require much time or concentration from learners.<\/p>\n
Mobile learning is a type of digital learning designed with mobile phones and tablet computers in mind. It can also be accessed via laptop computers, but it is mobile-first in nature: learning on small screens, short concentration times, more gamified activities to onboard learners, etc.<\/p>\n
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are online lessons accessible for anyone to participate in.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
N<\/h2>\n
These digital courses provide very (very) short formats for ultra-quick learning. (Think micro-micro-learning!)<\/p>\n
Just like nano learning, nugget learning is a form of short format, digital training. The specificity of nugget learning is that it delivers \u201cnuggets\u201d, or small chunks of content, which are more digestible and more entertaining for learners.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
O<\/h2>\n
We can think of off-the-shelf content as a virtual library. The available content, courses for example, can be purchased from suppliers who generate it.<\/p>\n
Onboarding is the process of integrating new hires into an organisation, in other words, the phase of introduction and skills development, from recruitment to confirmation within the company.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
P<\/h2>\n
Peer-learning is a horizontal kind of learning, as opposed to traditional, top-down learning. Learners share their knowledge and work together to obtain the skills expected by the trainer, who adopts a facilitating role in the process.<\/p>\n
Podcasts deliver informative audio content, which can be long or short and on any given topic, with the aim of sharing information, ideas or knowledge.
Podcasts have developed considerably in recent years, in particular with the emergence of smartphones, which allow users to listen to programmes while participating in other activities.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
R<\/h2>\n
The purpose of rapid learning is to quickly create short, e-learning courses using an authoring tool.<\/p>\n
A reward in e-learning is a system whereby learners can be recompensed for their learning. In this way, they have a greater desire to learn and their engagement increases. Rewards draw inspiration largely from gamification.<\/p>\n
A Return on Investment is an ultimate measure of success that shows the ratio of what you put in and get back as a result. In Digital Learning, apart from a learner\u2019s skills development, the business ROI can be assessed by comparing training system data with company results, (using a Business Intelligence tool for example).<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
S<\/h2>\n
Serious games combine all the fun and informality of gaming with the seriousness of learning. Serious games aim to be informative while incorporating aspects of entertainment and gamification.<\/p>\n
There are two definitions of social learning. Historically speaking, social learning represents a child\u2019s ability to draw inspiration from their social environment in order to learn (in particular through mimicry). Today, social learning refers to a different concept, borne out of habits which have arisen through the use of social networks and adapted to training. The idea being to exchange and to share knowledge and expertise informally, (on social networks, forums and so on).<\/p>\n
Small Online Open Courses (SOOCs) are a form of digital training aimed at a limited and defined number of learners and aiming to increase the number of social interactions between said learners.<\/p>\n
Small Private Online Courses (SPOCs) are based on the same principle as MOOCs but with a limited number of learners.<\/p>\n
Soft skills refer to an individual\u2019s behavioural skills, as opposed to hard skills, which refer to technical know-how. They include competencies such as active listening, resilience and proactivity. Some people associate Soft Skills with interpersonal skills and Hard Skills with expertise.<\/p>\n
Storytelling means building a story around a concept, a product or an idea. It has been shown that memorisation and engagement are greater when a story is conveyed to learners.<\/p>\n
Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) is a document format specific to training and gaming. Scorm allows you to create digital training content which can then be integrated into a digital training platform (LMS, LXP, etc.).<\/p>\n
Synchronous is in contrast to \u201casynchronous\u201d and refers to learning that involves instructors and learners communicating at the same time. Traditional, in-person courses are an example of synchronous training.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/h2>\n
V<\/h2>\n
Virtual reality is a virtually created environment in which users can physically interact using equipment such as a headset or virtual reality glasses.<\/p>\nA<\/h2>
L\u2019adaptive learning est un apprentissage qui s\u2019adapte \u00e0 l\u2019apprenant en lui proposant des formations personnalis\u00e9es gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 de nombreuses donn\u00e9es, dans le but de le faire progresser.<\/p>
Un add-on est l\u2019ajout d\u2019un module sur une application permettant de nouvelles fonctionnalit\u00e9s.<\/p>
On dit d\u2019une formation qu\u2019elle est asynchrone quand des apprenants n\u2019y participent pas en m\u00eame temps. Chaque apprenant se forme en fonction de ses disponibilit\u00e9s, \u00e0 son rythme, sans interactions instantan\u00e9es avec le formateur.<\/p>
ATAWAD est un acronyme de Any Time, Any Where, Any Device qui signifie n\u2019importe quand, n\u2019importe o\u00f9, n\u2019importe quel terminal. On l\u2019emploie pour parler d\u2019un apprentissage flexible qui peut se faire de partout et tout le temps.<\/p>
C\u2019est une version \u00e9toff\u00e9e de l\u2019ATAWAD contenant en plus les acronymes AC qui signifient \u201cAny Content\u201d, en fran\u00e7ais : \u201cn\u2019importe quel contenu\u201d, qui met l\u2019accent sur la diversit\u00e9 des contenus disponibles et accessibles n\u2019importe o\u00f9, n\u2019importe quand.<\/p>B<\/h2>
En fran\u00e7ais, il s\u2019agit d\u2019une formation mixte, appel\u00e9e \u00e9galement \u201chybride\u201d combinant la formation distancielle et pr\u00e9sentielle. Le blended learning a pour vocation d\u2019offrir \u00e0 l\u2019apprenant une formation compl\u00e8te et multimodale.<\/p>
La business intelligence est un principe d\u2019aide \u00e0 la d\u00e9cision reposant sur un outil digital qui permet de r\u00e9colter de l\u2019information dans le but d\u2019am\u00e9liorer la performance d\u2019une entreprise.<\/p>
\u201cBring Your Own Advice\u201d signifie \u201cAmener \/ utiliser son propre appareil\u201d. Cette expression est une tendance dans certaines entreprises souhaitant que leurs employ\u00e9s apportent leur propre appareil digital (PC, t\u00e9l\u00e9phone, tablette) \u00e0 des fins professionnelles. L\u2019objectif pour l\u2019entreprise est une r\u00e9duction des co\u00fbts, tandis que pour les salari\u00e9s il permet d\u2019utiliser un outil que l\u2019on ma\u00eetrise d\u00e9j\u00e0.<\/p>C<\/h2>
