I got my first cat — who I named Angel after the heartthrob in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and also a classmate I had a crush on — when I was seven years old. The internet, at that time, was a mess of dial-up and massive machines in the family computer room. But even the numbing beeps of a dial-up tone couldn't stop me from lying about my age and becoming a moderator on an online community of cat owners I discovered by reading a pamphlet included in the kitty litter my mom bought.

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

Sure, it's a dream to think we might get a movie about Superman's pup Krypto, Batman's pup Ace, and the Justice League's various other pets. But who would pay for that ? Well, Warner Bros. would, and did. DC League of Super-Pets features a packed lineup that includes Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Keanu Reeves, Kate McKinnon, Natasha Lyonne, Vanessa Bayer, John Krasinski, Diego Luna, and Marc Maron, among others.

Since when has learning and development (L&D) become such a negative experience with its intended learners? Could it be because learners have been conditioned by very poor learning experiences over the past two decades, combined with the kinks of technological innovation? Or is it because learning has typically been designed as a one-size-fits-all solution, despite the fact that humans are not clones?
