The latest issue of the International Journal of Advanced Corporate Learning (iJAC) is out today at http://www.i-jac.org. Zora Jones Rizzi and I have an article in this issue, titled "Case Study of BELL E-learning: Award-Winning, Interactive E-learning on a Nonprofit Budget."
The article's downloadable at http://online-journals.org/i-jac/article/view/975, and here's the abstract: "BELL (Building Educated Leaders for Life) is a nonprofit organization offering academic tutoring to elementary school children from low-income, urban communities. BELL launched a blended learning training for the tutoring staff working in its summer program in 2008, and won Training Magazine’s Blended Learning and Performance Project of the Year. The e-learning from that blended learning training is discussed in this paper."

Case study of summer academic program design & staff training
CSL conference workshop on BELL's Summer '08 program and training in Springfield
This Friday, April 17, I'll be co-presenting the workshop "The Transition Summer: BELL/Springfield Public Schools Rising 9th Grades Staff Training And Program Design" at the National Conference on Summer Learning in Chicago, with BELL's Chief Strategy Officer Carole Prest. The workshop will be from 2:30-4:00pm.
During the interactive workshop, we'll share lessons learned from building a new summer learning program for 8th grade students at risk for repeating the grade, including processes and outcomes. I'll also discuss BELL's training and demo BELL's e-learning, which won Training Magazine's Blended Learning and Performance Project of the Year for 2008.
This conference is hosted annually by the National Center for Summer Learning, which is based at the Johns Hopkins University School of Education. If you're planning on being there, I hope you'll attend our workshop and say hi!

Best Practices in e-Learning Instructional Design and Management
For folks interested in learning more about e-learning, The eLearning Guild is presenting an online forum next Thursday and Friday focused on design and management. Zora Rizzi and I will be presenting one of the sessions, on Friday, September 11 from 1:15pm to 2:30pm; our session is called "Blended & Interactive Design on a Limited Budget."
Here's some info about the forum from The eLearning Guild website:
"This Online Forum focuses on best practices and strategies for e-Learning instructional design, and the management of your ID teams and processes. We have asked the top ranked speakers who presented sessions at our two recent Regional Instructional Design Symposiums to present their sessions again for this Online Forum. To facilitate your planning, we have organized the sessions into two “tracks,” one focused on strategies for managing teams and processes, and the other on practical and proven ID approaches."
