We went to DevLearn 2017, a conference with almost 3,200 learning professionals. We spent a lot of time attending talks and were curious what other attendees had to say about the future of learning. We also really wanted to see Levar Burton.

Believe it is difficult,
if not impossible,
0:13
to reach one's full potential without
0:19
being able to read in
at least one language.

[MUSIC]
0:30
So, the future is here.
0:31
What does that mean for you for learning?
0:33
>> Well, that's why I'm here.
0:35
I'm here to learn the different trends for
leaning for the future.
0:37
>> What the future of learning means
to me is that learning is on demand.
0:40
Any time I want it, anywhere I want it.
0:43
If I'm lying on a beach in Hawaii or if
i'm stuck in snow somewhere in Minnesota,
0:45
that I shouldn't have to go beyond
my front porch to get what I need.
0:49
>> It's the matrix,
I wanna fly a helicopter, plug into.
0:52
>> [LAUGH] You'll plug it in.
0:57
>> It's not that dramatic, but
it's that instantaneous access,
0:59
which I think we're getting very close
to with smart of AI and especially AI.
1:03
And there's a lot of progress,
a lot of work to be made there, and
1:07
that's showing us the way.
1:12
>> To me, the future of eLearning
is complete accessibility.
1:13
Just like social media is completely
accessible to everyone, any time of day.
1:17
I think that eLearning is gonna be the
same way especially with micro-learning
1:21
and mobile learning.
1:24
>> To me, I believe it's fingertip access.
1:26
I think if it's on paper,
you're already outdated, so
1:28
it's like looking to the future.
1:31
So whether it's artificial intelligence or
a mobile device,
1:32
you want it at your fingertips.
1:35
You need it right now.
1:37
So, if you don't have it,
then you're already behind.
1:38
>> So the future is here, Jenita.
1:40
That's what we learned at this conference.
1:41
What is the future of learning?
1:43
>> Well, no one can actually
predict the future of learning.
1:44
But what we can do is look at
the different trends in technology.
1:47
And what we see, how we live today,
so reliant on our mobile devices.
1:51
It's a good indicator in
the direction that learning is going.
1:55

1:58
>> What is the future of learning?
2:06
>> In my opinion, the future of learning
is all about moving to a learning
2:09
ecosystem, which is like the Netflix of
learning style, moving away from the LMS.
2:13
I think analytics
are absolutely paramount,
2:18
that's layering in things like xAPI.
2:22
We are getting a lot of
activity with VR and
2:24
augmented reality,
very exciting time to be in learning.
2:29
>> Londa, our Chief Product Officer's
here, awesome, hey, so.
2:32
>> Yeah.
>> You got to go to that talk,
2:36
I didn't see that talk.
2:37
>> I know, you bailed on it,
it was totally worth it.
2:38
I stayed and kind of made my
way through and found a seat.
2:41
>> What was that talk?
2:43
Let's tell our students what that was.
2:44
>> The talk was about
the neuroscience of learning, and
2:45
what's the most effective way to learn.
2:48
And we've been learning about that at
Treehouse in our own book studies.
2:50
So, that was the talk.
2:53
>> So, what did you takeaway from that?
2:55
What was the main thing?
2:56
>> One hour, you've already forgotten 50%
of a material that you've just learned.
2:57
>> 50%?
3:01
>> 50%, by one week, 90% of it's gone.
3:01
Yeah, sounds horrifying, right?
3:05
Actually the brain is meant to forget
things that it doesn't need to anymore.
3:07
And so,
what you need to do is train your brain
3:12
that this is something
you want to remember.
3:14
And the best method for
that is effortful recall.
3:17
>> Excellent, so
what do we do to recall then?
3:20
What do we do with Treehouse to recall?
3:23
>> So with Treehouse to
recall is kind of a practice.
3:25
It's coming back within
the first 24 hours, or
3:28
trying to remember the concept
you just learned in 24 hours, and
3:31
then come back three days later and
recall that.
3:35
And within a week,
be applying that in a useful setting.
3:39
>> In the training industry,
whether it's insurance or anything,
3:42
people tend think content,
content, content.
3:46
I gotta get this content to people.
3:48
And not to say content's not important,
it obviously is.
3:50
But if someone doesn't want to
engage in what you're teaching them,
3:53
it does not matter how good
your content is, right?
3:56
They're not paying attention to it.
3:58
So we really focus on how do
we take this content that
3:59
people have to have to do their job.
4:02
But present it in a way where
they want to learn it, and
4:04
where they're excited to learn it, rather
than feeling like they have to learn it.
4:06
>> I think the future of learning
is what we make it to be.
4:10
Our interactions with current technology,
our decisions, how we use it, how we apply
4:13
it, really matters in how we'll have an
impact on the future and future learners.
4:18
So the future is what we make of it.
4:22
[SOUND]
>> The future for learning is, cut.
