From the Editor's Desk - August 2005

Welcome to this issue of Wavelength.

I don’t know how to be cheery and feel glad about monsoon after the havoc it played in Mumbai, so I won’t spend much time talking about weather, and move on to what Wavelength brings to you this month.

This month, the “Mystery of the Month” features Entertainment-based Learning, with a hope that it will help us cut the ropes that keep us bound to our traditional teaching methods. We are already experiencing entertainment undercurrents in the industry. Courses are being redone to incorporate more interactivity and interest. Clients today expect us to create online games, relevant crosswords, and include interesting storylines and themes to make sure that their online audience stays awake.

The point that this article tries to make is that entertainment is becoming an essential component of learning, especially in the case of eLearning. As usual, the article proposes a few tips for the uninitiated and hopes that along with our international counterparts, we will be able to change the stern face of learning into a more welcoming and amicable one.

In this issue we also conclude the serial, “Managers of Creativity.” The serial that shall begin in September will focus on “Accessibility.”

Wavelength started its Instructional Design & Content Writing Certificate (IDCWC) course on July 03, 2005. The course received an excellent response and generated immense interest. On July 17, 2005, Wavelength successfully conducted its 2nd IDO workshop. The success of this IDO workshop was evident in the registrations for the 2nd IDCWC course group, which is completely booked and begins on Aug 07, 2005. Registrations are now open for the 3rd IDCWC course group beginning on August 28, 2005.

I welcome the new subscribers to Wavelength. It’s through the encouragement and support of its readers that Wavelength continues to build this repository of ID knowledge. I thank you all for helping Wavelength grow.

Warm Regards,

Shafali R. Anand.
