Lecture Topics We’d Like To See

My friend Howard Gutknecht and I have been sending ideas for crazy presentation topics back and forth for the last few days, and we just might try recording a few short podcasts with these as the topics.  The rules would be absolutely no preparation, always saying “yes”, and stopping before you’re done.  (Those of you with any experience at improv might recognize these.)

Here’s what we’ve got:

1. Top Ten Ways To Screw Up e-Learning
2. The Sounds Of Snoring – Why Webcasts Usually Suck
3. There Are No “Buts” In Ass-sessment
4. If They Want To Do It, There’s No Need For Leadership
5. The Paradigm Has To Want To Be Changed
6. I’ll Have What She’s Having – Things To Come At ASTD
7. Celebrity Hook-Up:  Mickey and Camtasia
8. Why Old People In Training Hate Technology
9. There Is No “Learn” In “Lecture”
10. You’d Suck At Training Even If You Got Quite A Bit Better
11. There Are Only Learners and Learn-Mores
12. They Aren’t Broke, So Don’t Fix Em
13. Message From Deming:  It’s the System that’s Stupid!
14. We’ve Fallen Into Boredom And Can’t Get Up
15. Just Stop Training: They Might Learn Something
16. Working Hard – the Fundamental Bad Example

What do you think?  Anybody else want to play?
