In the summer of 2008, I took a course at UAlbany that taught me not only how to develop good online content, but also how to learn asynchronously. We engaged in discussions with each other in the class that took place over a several day period. The discussions were vibrant and carried on a feel that felt spontaneous, real-time, and productive.
In your training and development of your staff, consider the value of moving from a one-off course or training session to an internal discussion online, a discussion board, or a regular think-tank that doesn’t necessarily decide or learn everything in one sitting.
