Welcome to the Fabulous Learning Nerds! On this week's episode, we are excited to have Richard Vass, a learning technology expert from ELB Learning, join us to discuss the topic of AI vs Adaptive Training - what we should know NOW as learning pros. Adaptive learning is a powerful approach that allows learners to guide their own learning experience based on their performance. On the other hand, AI can provide a personalized and curated learning experience based on big data and contextual inputs. In this episode, we'll explore the benefits of a blend of both adaptive and AI-based learning, and how to harness modern learning tech to craft the right solution. Richard will share insights on how to use AI-based tools to gather data, and how to ensure that a blended adaptive/AI learning experience remains relevant and effective over time. He'll also cover when to use AI-based tools to help gather data about learners' engagement, performance, and preferences. Join us as we delve into this fascinating topic and discover how to use cutting-edge learning technology to create engaging and effective learning experiences. Tools such as ChatGTP which was used to create this intro! Don't miss out!

Self-confidence and self-esteem are critical factors in both good learning and good leadership. Are your learnings safe places where everyone can participate and grow?

These are the topics we tackle this week as the NERDS welcome Jeannie Moravits Smith, a human connection strategist and certified confidence, leadership, & mindset consultant. Jeannie shares her story of the overcoming obstacles and the importance of developing and maintaining high self-confidence and self-esteem in our work and educational environments.

Our access to information is expanding exponentially, and along with it comes a very real problem.

Ezell is a professor and mentor in higher education with more than two decades of experience with learning and development. Ezell shares his experiences in the today’s digital classroom and what we as designers and facilitators can do to encourage critical thinking.

Let’s face it, all skills aren’t made equally. Some skills are more durable than others such as communication and leadership presence. That being said, what kinds of skills are we giving to our frontline employees? All too often our workers get the task-oriented, perishable skills while the leaders get the more durable ones. As learning professionals are we unintentionally reinforcing an unequal system through the way we develop skills and deciding who gets access to what kind of skills? This week the NERDS are proud to Mathew J Daniel, a talent development strategist and principle at Guild Education. Mathew shares his views of talent inequity in our industry and what we can do to help ensure that everyone has a path for growth no matter what role they have in an organization.
