Instructional Currentz Video w/ Billy Wilson on Adaptive Learning

About Billy…

The only thing I fear is not making a positive difference.

I approach Training/Instruction/Learning Design from a different perspective than most, for a variety of reasons.

* My background is in engineering, quality/safety programs, human performance, and root cause analysis.

* I’m still a trainee in the same environment as my target learner population, so I get to experience training the same way everyone else does.

* I have major attention issues (diagnosed ADHD-Primarily Inattentive as an adult), so I have no patience for boring, badly human-factored training content.

* I am a skeptic, a contrarian, and a habitual devil’s advocate.

So… I guess what I’m saying is don’t be surprised if I disagree with you on a topic and then also agree with you later on the very same topic. I have my reasons; it’s not personal.
