Using ERIC, I found the New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education journal.
This journal focuses on adult learning theories and how the adult learner 'works'. There are many articles you can search for on various topics including how the adult brain is functioning and can be optimized during learning.
My work focuses on designing materials for distance adult learners. I think there is a lot of good information I can learn about the role the brain plays in learning and more specifically plays for the adult learner.

Journal of Instructional Psychology
http://psychology.about.com/gi/o.htm?zi=1/XJ&zTi=1&sdn=psychology&cdn=education&tm=36&gps=203_112_1020_530&f=00&su=p897.9.336.ip_&tt=2&bt=0&bts=0&st=14&zu=http%3A//articles.findarticles.com/p/search%3Fqt%3D%26tb%3Dart%26qf%3Dm0FCG
The Journal of Instructional Psychology provides a great resource of information focusing on the psychology of learning. Many of the articles strictly focus on the how the brain learns, retains information, and retrieves that information.
I also think this journal is highly valuable since it also talks about teaching strategies and learning assessments.
It offer a full range of information that will help understand better ways to design, deliver, and assess learning.

Aggregate Blog site for eLearning
http://www.elearninglearning.com/
This website aggregates the content from various websites about eLearning. The site's mission is to provide a collection of information, a starting point, and help.
I think this site will be useful to me to help centralize a ton of information into one place. As I am not a blogging expert - I hope this site will serve as a filter to direct me to other blogging sites that will be useful to me in my pursuit of my graduate degree and in my career (current and future)

"As organizations try to create e-learning, many attempts will fall short of ideal. And having something finished is often better than obsessively working to perfect a single design while too many other topics remain untouched." (All the Things e-Learning Can Be Posted by Allen Interactions on Mon, Oct 11, 2010 written by Ethan Edwards.)
After I read this sentence I knew I wanted to read more - this is my job summarized in a few sentences!
This blog shares ideas about e-learning designs and effectiveness.
I think this blog will help me to learn what other e-learning professionals are doing and learn from their gains and losses. I also like the idea to read about others who are in the same boat I am in!
I AM NOT ALONE!
