Object Hyperlinking is The Key to Long-Tail Training
Long-tail training is an adult training methodology that results in learners being able to access key training information long after they have completed your classroom or computer based training. Long-tail training makes point-of-need learning possible by leveraging the emerging application of object hyperlinking.
The Unmatched Effectiveness of Point-of-Need Learning
Point of need learning is the act of accessing
information at the time and place of need and object hyperlinking is the technology that makes this possible. To represent this concept, we may observe
that non-swimmers become very receptive to learning how to use a flotation device
when they find themselves in deep water. Even if the non-swimmer had learned about floatation devices in a classroom setting, we expect far less than 100% of that understanding will be carried forward to the time and place of need. The reason point-of-need learning is so effective is because the desire to learn is never more dedicated than when we have context of use and a real world need. Object hyperlinking provides information to a user at the time and place of need. This user initiated action results in one of the most effective transfers of information currently possible between people and objects.

For me the value in this (QuickData) is the ability to provide specific repair information to my students when they are in the field standing in front of a refrigeration unit. I saw the value in this from the first time I learned of the idea. Thanks for the presentation."
