December 2010 - Brightwave newsletter


	December newsletter: A cracker of an issue First of all - Merry Christmas from all the Brightwave team - we hope you're enjoying the 12 tips of Christmas e-cards we've been sending out in the run-up to the festive period. But it's not all mince pies and ho-ho-ho round here. We're as busy as Santa's little helpers in preparation for the Learning Technologies Conference on the 26-27th Jan 2011. As well as being a key sponsor of the event, we will be hosting a debate and special topic lunches as well as two seminars. Put the dates in your diary now and - come see us on stand 16 at London's Olympia 2. Don't forget to complete our 'What a difference' survey by Friday 17th Dec and help shape our understanding of what you expect the future of e-learning to look like. We've been nominated as a finalist for It Training Awards' Learning Technologies Solution of the Year for our Bupa One Plan e-learning programme, which is coincidentally the latest case study. Finally, linking in to our article about the fear of using video content, check our our website and vote in our poll about what stops us from using movies to stimulate and motivate learners. That'll do for now, in the meantime... Happy holidays Simply select a link below to view more, and don't forget to join us on Twitter!
