"THE MIND IS NOT A VESSEL THAT NEEDS FILLING
BUT WOOD THAT NEEDS IGNITING."
- PLUTARCH, GREEK HISTORIAN

This is a wonderful time in the evolution
of the human experience. Technological
advancements continue to abound
and astound. Seemingly everything
we could ever want is at our fingertips.

learning experiences that leverage the
convenience and enjoyment of e-learning
solutions. As the training industry does
its best to keep up with the technology
race, the question of the human factor

technologically evolving environment,

in-classroom, facilitator-led training
necessary? And ultimately, is it worth it?
Hermann Ebbinghaus, a German
psychologist and pioneer in the field of
memory and psychology introduced
both the forgetting curve (the rate at
which information is forgotten) as well
as the learning curve (the rate at which
information is learned) in 1885. According
to his research, nearly half of what is learned
is forgotten within days, depending on the
strength of the memory. That said, when
considering the billions of dollars invested
in training each year, it's worth ensuring
that the investment is equally aimed at
the strength of the memory intended by
that training.
This article addresses three critical
components of the learning process:
