Practice imaginative visualisation of the work that wants to be acheived, perhaps translating a visual image into words will help sharpen the focus of the actual vision.

PESTLE seems to show that the idea is well supported by current trends in policy and society, and that technology is available to deliver the idea

PESTLE seems to provide a better lens as it identifies the key factors that need to be considered in considering business environment

Yes, the value proposition for educational courses extends beyond the course (take this one for example) also to longer-term impact on societal development and human resource capacity

Change through innovation, as the markets change so often that pivots are part and parcel of long term survival and profitability. A culture of embracing change as a marker of success will enable employees to adapt quickly.

I think the core similarity seems to be that there is an emphasis on getting the right people into the startup, and it is the leader's responsibility to do so. When the right team is in place, the leader then plays a key role in giving energy and vision to the team, asking them to reach beyond what is possible. The stories of failure and the top reasons chart...

The recent forced shift to online platforms in education has resulted in internet access disparity for lower income or rural students. This exacerbates the existing education gap. The business model should include a mechanism for ensuring that those with a lack of access are given support or aid to continue with their classes.

What has changed since 2007 in healthcare and education? Healthcare education has become fiercely competitive, as there is an oversupply of medical graduates in Malaysia due to a policy mistake of granting too many medical school licenses in the early 2010s, leading to a massive glut of young medical graduates and not enough houseman places.

In Malaysia, all public universities have access to the Office 365 suite for free, under an agreement between Microsoft and the Ministry of Higher Education. This has made Office 365 the de facto platform for managing classes and scheduling lecturers for a lot of educators during the past two months.

A business model would have helped Coca Cola to analyse the current state. Tweaking their sweetness to mimic Pepsi seems to be a simple model of deciding to imitate what the leader was doing, and then assuming that it was the flavour that had shifted consumers to Pepsi. A more detailed analysis might have raised the questions of whether it was necessary to...

My idea would be in product development. There are some new ways of delivering the product, but these are not developed yet. There are probably many companies already delivering these on an international platform, but maybe not at a local level.

I think Bandcamp was a blue ocean venture, as it pushed away in waters outside of the popular music industry process. A way for music lovers to discover new artists , or explore specific genres, without having to rely on the music industry machinery to spotlight new artists.
Blue ocean thinking captures the entrepreneurial approach of expansion, without a...

Hi, I'm Yew Kong from Malaysia. A ding in the universe means that I put in place a research training program at my faculty that combines the best of online and face to face learning in order to help students develop into well-rounded researchers with the skills to succeed in both academia and industry.

An RLO targetted at laypersons and built up using their perspectives would certainly help them as it is tailored to their needs. It also brings to the fore the need to perform the assessment with local users though, as issues faced in one setting might be different from those in another.

Hi Heather. Yes, in fact we are from the same department. He is the one who introduced us to the concept of RLOs after meeting you at Nottingham and he's the one who asked us to sign up for this course.

The personalization principle is important. I think the delivery of the material in a conversational style is important to keep people tuned in to the material...once they detect a hint of classroom formality it's zzzz time.

I'm really new at e-learning and am looking...

hi, I've had some experience working on a course to teach research to healthcare professionals and we've had two groups of users; one group pays to use the course and comprises private practitioners while the other comprises clinical trainees who get to use the course for free as part of their studentship. What I've found is that the course tends to be well...
