In 2010, eLearning continued to emerge as the practical and efficient alternative to live-instruction. More and more companies are employing web-based learning systems as a means to save time and travel costs, and as an environmentally friendly initiative. In fact, the American Society for Training and Development reports that nearly 30 percent of all learning hours occur in an online environment. As user experiences move closer to replicating real classroom interaction, we can expect the trend to continue. Articulation recently worked on an instructional design project, helping to convert a series of training courses into a web-based Flash format.

On the heels of a wildly popular multi-spot advertising campaign, Proctor and Gamble’s Old Spice and its Brand Manager have been named Marketer of the Year by AdWeek. For decades the company attempted to reconcile an outdated brand identity and a fresh, young audience, while competing with edgier new brands like Axe, which emphasizes sexual appeal in their branding messages. However, with their 2010 campaign, Old Spice managed to appeal to the sense of humor of male cologne-wearers, and the lust of female cologne buyers.
