Welcome to the December edition of Wavelength.
The year is drawing to a close. We are standing at the threshold
of the New Year, 2010. This time is always special for Wavelength
– it was born with the New Year.
The first edition of Wavelength was published on January 04,
2005. With this edition, it completes 5 years. These 5 years have
seen a tremendous change in the content industry of India. These
have been the years of realization and consolidation for the entire
industry. These years have had an enormous impact upon Wavelength
too. They have helped reinforce its competencies and made it stronger
in its resolves.
This month, I also have another news to share. This news should
interest those who enjoy the Wavelength articles, and who’ve
taken and appreciated its courses/training programs. I’ve
finally taken the plunge. I’ve started a web-log of my thoughts.
As this web-log will present my viewpoint on the “why”
and the “how” of the learning phenomenon, I call it
The
Zen of Learning. I hope to make this
blog a place of quiet reflection.
You can visit my blog at http://thezenoflearning.wordpress.com.
The participants of our training programs would know that I
have a strong belief in the instructional prowess of fiction writing.
I always recommend reading novels, as a productive hobby to whoever
is willing to listen. You may ask why? Find out by reading the Wavelength
article, “Learning
Instructional Design from the Real Gurus – The Fiction Writers!”
