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.

That advantage is generally felt throughout the software world, especially for anything that supports digital communications (zoom) or entertainment/escapism (gaming).

Ever since consoles moved to the same underlying architecture as modern desktop computers, there has always been an underlying question as to whether those same processors could run regular desktop computer versions of Windows, and subsequently be used for more than just gaming. We’ve had to wait a long while, but for whatever reason one of the 8 th Generation Console processors is being enabled for the (mass) market, and the first to jump on that game is the Chuwi Aerobox.

Or is it because learning has typically been designed as a one-size-fits-all solution, despite the fact that humans are not clones?
