I am pursuing a PhD in Training and Performance Improvement at Capella Univesity (online). I am ABD - all but dissertation. I've yet to see the light at the end of the tunnel. However, I love field of learning (formal and informal) and believe that social media is the new frontier. Already I am seeing job requirements that specify social media knowledge and experience.

Hey there!
I just began my program at Syracuse university, studying IDD&E - Instructional Design Development & Evaluation. Its great fun so far and a lot of work. Part of what I am interested in is studying student perspectives in online environments.
Currently I am working on developing a learning theory knowledge base, an instructional design project focusing on developing basic e-learning skills, and on a team to produce learning materials for an after school program involving information literacy development skills.

Hi everyone!
I am in the Master of Science, Curriculum Development & Instructional Technology program at the University at Albany in New York. I will be graduating in May '09. The MS CDIT is a fully on-line program.

Looking forward to sharing experiences and ideas with all of you.

Good discussion idea, Kevin. My MA-Ed Adult Ed/Training virtual team is producing a ppt this week on e-learning, I am converting my f-2-f teacher trainings to online and perusing workliteracy all at the same time ... I can't tell which parts of my life are nested in which parts it's all so much on the same branch.
