100 Top Tools for Learning: Keeping Up in a World Full of Information

How are you dealing with all of the technological changes in your life? Let's face it, iPods, computers, telecommunication technology and other tools have literally transformed our world. I don't know about you in your career but as a Realtor (c) it's incredibly important that I keep up with a MASSIVE amount of information. I must also adapt to new communication technology (phone and computer) and I need to distill all of this "stuff" into a coherent package (or toolkit) that I can use to be effective in my work as a real estate agent. This very blog is the result of a huge number of technologies working together. Trying to keep up is like drinking through a fire hose. It wasn't so long ago that things were........different.

A good friend of my sent me a link to an interesting and helpful website: Centre for Learning & Performance Technologies. The site includes a free list of the Top 100 Tools for Learning. It's truly amazing to me that a mere 30 years ago none of these "tools" existed. Think about it: we didn't have the Internet, high speed communication lines, "on-line social networks," email, (no voice mail either), home computers, document scanning, cell phones, iPods,.....etc. I hope you check out the list as you may come across a few tools that can make life just a little bit easier. Just click on the picture below to begin your journey. Have fun.
