Improvements Enable Users to Tap Expertise of Leading Tech Innovators, Access Interactive Content and Better Measure Consumption in O鈥橰eilly鈥檚 Learning Ecosystem
BOSTON MA—O’Reilly, the premier source for insight-driven learning on technology and business, today announced several new platform features to enhance the learning experience for its 2.5 million users. These new capabilities include Expert Playlists, Jupyter Notebooks, and an update to its Insights API.
Expert Playlists provide high-value, in-demand content curated by the most respected names in technology and business, including ThoughtWorks鈥� Neal Ford, Two Sigma鈥檚 Camille Fournier and O鈥橰eilly鈥檚 own Founder and CEO, Tim O鈥橰eilly. A public sharing feature enables users access to playlists from peer-to-peer, across an organization and with O鈥橰eilly users outside of an individual鈥檚 organization, enabling teams to build new skills together. Content options span multiple topics and modes, including O鈥橰eilly books, videos, learning paths and more.
鈥淎nyone who is an expert on a subject has a unique perspective on what people ought to learn, often in the process sharing something about their own learning history,鈥� said Tim O鈥橰eilly. 鈥淚n the expert playlists I created, I try to give a starting point to follow my journey on some of the topics that I think a lot about and where I am still learning.鈥�
O鈥橰eilly鈥檚 Insights API helps customers more accurately measure learning consumption by integrating user data from O鈥橰eilly Online Learning into their own Learning Management System (LMS). Insights API offers greater performance, increased security, more accurate and finer-grain topic details and true user identification, so see how employees are learning on an individual level.
The Insights API is an extension of major updates to O鈥橰eilly鈥檚 Insights Dashboard launched earlier this year, enabling business leaders to go beyond completion metrics and access deeper-level insights into specific learning behaviors. This functionality provides a single-pane-of-glass view into learning modules—from linear and nonlinear learning patterns to deepening and broadening topic engagement—arming leaders with actionable data to better understand and measure how their teams learn.
Jupyter Notebooks is another new and notable addition to O鈥橰eilly Online Learning. This enables users to apply the skills they鈥檙e reading about in real-time with interactive Jupyter Notebooks, input, edit, run code and render live results aligned with the author鈥檚 explanation and download notebooks to read, review and practice with later.
