LinkIn Learning: social media is disrupting education

There seems to be no end to the ambitions of the social media giants. After publishing it is education´s tun to experience these network´s disrupting powers. LinkedIn Learning now has free video training on subjects which vary from business software to design and variable data printing. The quality of the modules is not always very high and there is quite a bit of overlap. But, if you want quick access to how to turn an InDesign page into an interactive PDF InLearning can be a good option. You´ll have to take the word ´free´ with a grain of salt. Because although the LinkedIn CEO says it is his mission and obligation to educate is for free, the learners give LinkedIn a wealth of big data about their interests. And with the growing income from targeted advertising these big data will be much more valuable to the company than the cost of the training. Look at an example of an InLearning video via this link which gives an introduction about digital and variable data printing.
