This Blog Moves to a New Web Site

elearningtyro

Hello all,

I am glad to announce that I have launched a new Web site on e-learning. Here is my new Web site name:

http://elearningplanet.com/

Here are the unique features of my new Web site:

Millions of e-learning Web sites are available in the Cyberspace. There are Web sites that include only e-learning blogs; some include e-learning forums, information on e-learning jobs, reviews on e-learning products, and so on. But, very few Web sites post information that covers all aspects of e-learning.

 

elearningplanet.com deserves to be one among those rare Web sites that:

  • Includes its own e-learning blog.
  • Facilitates collaborative learning between e-learning professionals through its forum.
  • Conducts frequent online contests for e-learning professionals.
  • Provides free online training and assignments for instructional designers and graphic designers.
  • Selects its favorite blog post and blogger from the e-learning blogosphere on a weekly basis.
  • Selects active participants in the planet’s forum.

All blog posts in this blog (https://elearningtyro.wordpress.com/) are moved to the ‘Blog’ section in http://elearningplanet.com/. However, this blog  continue to remain with no future updates.

Please redirect your feeds to http://elearningplanet.com/?feed=rss2

Thanks for all your support and I am anxious to contribute more to this e-learning world through my new Web site.

Regards,

Sathish Narayanan

Interactive Course on Aircraft Ground Icing

elearningtyro

Here is my pick!

Are you interested in knowing about aircraft ground icing? Learn it from NASA, which offers an interactive training course intended for pilots who make their own operational de-icing and anti-icing decisions. This training course helps private pilots as well as those who fly business, corporate, air taxi, or freight operations in fixed-wing aircraft. Enjoy viewing this course and let me know what impressed you the most!

Interactive Experiment on Spotting the Fake Smile

elearningtyro

Here is my pick.

This experiment is designed to test whether you can spot the difference between a fake smile and a real one. It has 20 questions and it is based on the research by Professor Paul Ekman, a psychologist at the University of California. Each video clip will take approximately 15 seconds to load on a 56k modem and you can only play each smile once.
