About e-learningPulse.com

Hello friends,

I recently came across a site eLearningPulse.com which is an online community for instructional designers, graphic designers, software developers, etc. This site provides free resources to the eLearning development community. Resources include varied topics from keyboard shortcuts, effective powerpoint presentations, how to use wikis, etc. to templates, storyboard, rapid e-learning, engaging interactions for e-learning, etc. and more. Besides this, there are features like news, discussion forums, job postings, etc. which make the site interesting. The e-learning polls feature allows the user to cast his/her vote regarding any topic. The registration is free for users.

The menu bar consists of options – home, news, forums, videos, jobs, widgets and about. There are archives to access previous articles. The discussion forum is informative. I came to know about the term “edupunk” while surfing. This word is coined by Jim Groom, an “instructional technologist” at the University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg. Edupunk is a D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself) attitude towards education. I found the article interesting. Currently there is free access given by the developers of the community. Do visit the site, I am sure you will find it informative if not useful.
