Jane Hart has published her annual survey for the Top 100 Learning Tools for 2022 and it’s interesting. Here’s the detailed analysis.

It’s that time of the year again to submit for Jane Hart’s Top Tools for Learning. I’ve been doing this every year since 2012 she created this annual program which has now become a record of how the tools for my personal learning have changed over the years. This year has been a complete flip […]

Well it’s that time of the year again when Jane Hart (@C4LPT) creates the annual survey collating the top 10 tools that people use for learning. Every year, I submit my results and I have to say that over the years, there have been some that remain the same – the stalwarts, if you will. […]
My Top 10 Learning Tools for 2017
So here’s the thing. After Zuckerberg’s announcement today at F8 Developer Conference, I reckon that in say, ooh, maybe 2020 the way he’s going, he’s going to be everything to everyone and there may not be the Top 10 Learning Tools anymore…. It may just be the Top 1 (and Only) Learning Tool which will […]

My Top 10 Learning Tools for 2014
Ever realise that you should have kept records to view trends of your own learning progression and use of various tools?

Activate Learning in the Post-Work Years
So it seems that I’m not the only one in my circle of family and friends who decided to retire early. It must be a “thing” now. Chatting with them, the main reason for retiring early are mainly related to changes in their job circumstance. Others I spoke to who are still working, have all […]
Curated TidBits For the Week: Lessons for Learning
Substack, Schmuckstack I know that creators out there need a way to make money from their content and create substack newsletters but frankly, I’m really sick and tired of hearing about it. There’s a lot of hype around it. These platforms come and go like waves. First there was blogging, then there WordPress, then there […]
From Training to Learning to Knowledge to What?
(This is a collection of rambled thoughts – I’m still formulating what the question is in my mind so please humour me and go with the flow. I will find my way soon). I’ve been working on some interesting projects at Adopt & Embrace, a Microsoft Partner and where I work three days a week […]
Spaced Repetition in Learning
This year admittedly, I have focussed much of my time on learning new things. It was primarily because I had more time given that I work three days a week (personal choice for my mental health and wellbeing) which left me the other days to focus on everything else. Given that there wasn’t much going […]
Using Social Media on the Desktop Only – Results So Far
One week ago, I deleted all social media off my phone and only been using some of the them through desktop only. This means that I’m spending less time doing mindless scrolling and wasting time on it because I’ve effectively reduced picking up the phone at odd times at the expense of doing other activities […]
How to Prepare Yourself for a Future of Learning
Yesterday I had a lot of fun being part of Table Talks for Microsoft Ignite. Table Talks are 30 minute Teams Meetings that simulate the ’round the table’ talks we have at conferences. A group of us Mathew, Megan, Pradeep and Renganathan worked together to devise a high level outline of what we wanted to […]
Reflections About Personal Learning This Week – 3 May 2020
Beside my desk at home, I have a list of questions that were created by Kenneth Mikkelsen who wrote the post on The Best Leaders are Constant Learners. Every week, I glance over to it and make a mental note to use it as a means of self reflection for the week. After all, I […]
Dedicate Time For Self-Driven Personal Learning At Work
One of the days that I look forward to at the company I work at Adopt and Embrace is that we have dedicated “Learning Days” every quarter set aside where the entire day is spent on self-driven learning. During Learning Days, we are free to spend the entire day learning what we want as long […]
Create Your Personalised Learning Plan with Adaptive Cards to Microsoft Teams
Last year I used the article by Luise Freese (@luisefreese) on Adaptive Cards for Beginners: How to Monitor a Hashtag on Twitter . The idea is that you can create a card that automatically goes into your selected channel in Microsoft Teams that triggers an action on your part: namely to explore the topic of […]
Learning in the Modern Workplace
In my recent blog post titled Drawing as Thinking…and a Treasure Map about #MadMapMarch, I wrote how I delved into some journal articles that explained the benefits of using different ways to express ourselves as a challenge to the way we think. In this case, it was comic books. That is, drawing our thoughts in a comic book format […]
