Seven Spaces of Education Technology
Matt Locke originally came up with the concept of the Six Spaces of technology (test.org.uk/2007/08/10/six-spaces-of-social-media/). I added a seventh earlier this year, Data Spaces, and have played around with how education could harness these spaces, and the various transgressions between them, for learning. This short presentation tackles the potential of adjusting our physical school environments to harness technology even better. What happens when we map technological spaces to physical ones? You can see more of the detail behind these thoughts over on the blog: edu.blogs.com/edublogs/2010/10/-cefpi-clicks-bricks-when-digital-learning-and-space-met.html

In the midst of such growing economic pressures, the expectations from the contact centers are on a rise as they are convinced to do more with less.

Effective Employee Management Using The Henry Ford Approach
In the early 20th century, Henry Ford revolutionized the way the world organizes itself with his innovative production method known as the “assembly line.” Instead of having one or just a few employees work on a product from beginning to end, an assembly line moves work from one worker to another until the product is finished. Ford’s assembly line was designed to manage manufacturing processes, but it can be applied to almost any kind of production. A restaurant, for instance, is a great example where we can see Ford’s assembly line in action. Tasks are delegated among hosts, servers, bartenders, cooks, and dishwashers who are all “experts” in their disciplines, in order to increase production and efficiency. The assembly line can be seen in virtually every industry: coffee shops, clothing stores and fashion design just to name a few.
Jack of all trades, master of none – sound familiar?
Many online businesses start small – workforces of one, two, maybe three people. Responsibilities are not set in stone, it’s never really explicit what one’s position is and everyone is in for the greater cause: the initial success of the business. While this scenario works, and in most cases is essential in a start- up’s early times – once a small venture matures into a full-fledged business, many changes need to be made. More specifically – the Jack of all trades approach needs to go out the window – it simply will not suffice as the business continues to grow and will eventually prove to be counter-productive to its further success. Enter, the assembly line.
