Dump the Drone

Cathy Moore's (curiously long, but) useful presentation showing why we should ‘dump the corporate drone’ from our courses:

Corporate drone:

  • Makes it harder to learn
  • Kills motivation

In your content:

  • Add people
  • Tell a story

Why cut text?

  • We read slower online
  • We’re used to games
  • A quicker pace is more interesting

In summary, make your content challenging, not your language!
