The six-inch, toss-able Learning Thumball has arrived! Elliott Masie and team designed the Learning Thumball for fun engagement and interaction at Learning 2014, taking place October 26-29 in Orlando, Florida. Their goal is playful collaboration among the 1,600 senior executives at this event.

Thumballs are used as a fun, interesting and creative way to break the ice and start conversations in groups. 

There are 30 panels around the six-inch-wide Learning Thumball, each with a question or conversation trigger. Here are a few examples:

  • Does Google Search Affect Learning?
  • Learners I Don't Like?
  • Learning Interruptus!
  • Your Favorite Teacher?
  • Gaming & Gamification?
  • Compliance & Learning?
  • TED Videos: Why Do They Work?

“We ordered 200 of these cute, soft and toss-able thumballs. Learning Thumballs will be a fun added element at Learning 2014,” said Masie, the Host and Curator of the annual Learning conference.

Learning 2014 will be held in Orlando, Florida from October 26 to 29, 2014. Early Registration Discounts and Group Discounts now available. Registration is available online at http://www.learning2014.com.

If participants want to take one of the Learning Thumballs home with them at the end of the conference, they can donate $10 to True Colors Fund, one of the non-profits supported by the event.

Learning 2014 is produced by The Learning CONSORTIUM, a collaborative of 230 global corporations focused on improving workplace learning and training. Hosted and curated by Elliott Masie, Learning 2014 brings together several thousand learning professionals as they focus on the changing nature of workplace education and development. Learning 2014 keynote speakers include Robin Roberts (ABC’s Good Morning America), Chef Bobby Flay, Sir Ken Robinson, Elliott Masie and more.
