On the last day at AWE, I had some cool demos on the show floor, but the one that I will never forget has been OWO, the haptic shirt that traumatized me. OWO Vest. Owo Haptic Vest (Image by OWO). OWO is a Spanish startup that is proposing this haptic shirt able to provide you with touch sensations via electrical stimuli. The shirt must be in direct contact with the body so that it can stimulate directly the skin and the muscles with the electricity, so you can’t wear clothes below it.

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.

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