Experiencing eLearning

NOVEMBER 17, 2009

These are my live blogged notes from Harold Jarche’s LearnTrends session on Personal Knowledge Management. Idea from Will Richardson: what do you do when you read a blog post and come across an interesting few sentences? If you follow dull people on Twitter, Twitter will be boring. My side comments are in italics.

APRIL 14, 2009

Global collaboration can be very small; can just be one teacher and one class with blogs or Skype. With blogs, move students from passive lurking on a class blog –> blog comments first. Examples: student blogging project , 10 weeks with a challenge to push students more each week. Communicate = Ning.

Over the past few years, I spend part of December going back through my blog to recap a bit of what some of the key things I’ve learned over the course of the year. Twitter is Much Better than I Thought for Learning I used to say during presentations that I wasn’t quite sure about twitter as a learning tool.

Last year we experimented with a ning platform, a twitter account and a few videos. In ning, there is a new application which is called member-mix.

A few weeks ago I did a very informal query on Twitter, asking people what were their favorite eLearning brands. If I just take content creation and social media perspective - then why only Ning and what Google is doing there. Just remember, my "survey" was highly unscientific and represented one afternoons chatter on Twitter.

At the same time, Marcia Conner was asking for examples of how someone’s Twitter/Facebook (T/FB) comments have changed your opinion of them. Blogs tend to be more formal (tends, mind you), while Twitter and Facebook cross the boundary into informal. And maybe then not worthy of being called communities?

Some of it may be peer-group / cohort stuff, as in a great deal of professional success coming prior to the explosion of personal websites, blogs, etc. That may change as more of my friends and blogging buddies begin to use facebook as an email replacement.

I actually think that Facebook and Ning are heading in the right direction by becoming platforms for social networking solutions. and then resume the more ad hoc mixture of blogs I've been using for many years. I agree with George around blogs being a great learning and networking tool. Again, I'm not so sure I agree.
