Working with eLearning Tools
The eLearning Guild asked members for their favorite tips for using software for the creation of e-Learning. Members could submit tips in any or all of the following five categories:
- Courseware authoring and e-Learning development tools
- Rapid e-Learning tools
- Simulation tools
- Media tools
- Combining and deploying authoring tools
162 Tips and Tricks for Working with e-Learning Tools is a free PDF-Book. Go download it and discover a lot of nice ideas. In my opinion we need also a Tips for eLearning with social software Resource.

If you ever asked yourself how to improve your learning skills and ever asked yourself how support that e.g. with social software read the article Hacking Knowledge: 77 Ways to Learn Faster, Deeper, and Better at the Online Education Database.
