Some organizations today face a situation of multiplicity on both the

creation side and the consumption side of learning content. On the

creation side, organizations face the need for learning content created

by Subject Matter Experts and other users. These content creators are

in addition to the instructional designers and trainers on the learning

staff.

On the consumption side, organizations are discovering that, with the

proliferation of various types of tablets and smartphones, learners are

accessing their learning content – or at least wish to access their

content – with a wide and unknown array of devices. It cannot be

assumed anymore that people are consuming learning content on

standard computer desktops and laptops with standard screen sizes

and known software setups.
