As I type this I'm listening to Dave Cormier's video presentation to OER19 on pro-social - this came right after Bon Stewart passed on George Siemens's denouncement of the concept of 'learning engineering'. I first encountered the term last year when it was proposed as an IEEE-LTSC project. I tried to warn them about just how bad the term sounded, but to no avail. This page - the Industry Consortium on Learning Engineering (ICICLE) - is the outcome of some of that work. Note well: "ICICLE seeks participants to join this activity, that include but are not limited to, education and training technology vendors; textbook and eLearning media publishers; corporate HR/training departments; digital platform vendors (PC, tablet, phone, VR, AR); related industry associations; educational institutions; and government agencies."
