Trends & Issues in Instructional Design, Educational Technology, and Learning Sciences

Episode 36 Trends for the Weeks of March 23-April 5 A Mixed Bag of Trends – Online Learning, Learning & Cognition, and New Hardware & Software Announcements
We discuss the trends and issues we observed during the weeks of March 23-April 5, 2015 as we flipped resources into our Flipboard magazine (http://bit.ly/trendsandissues). In this episode of our podcast, we discuss 3 trends. The first two trends were mixed bags of articles on online learning and learning and cognitive development. The third was a number of announcements about hardware and software. We also reported that it was the 5th anniversary of the iPad. We have three recommended readings for the week.
