Collaborate – don’t be afraid to share ideas and get other’s opinions. Think about what kind of learning you’d like to see, be it products, theories or something completely different. Where is the gap? Look at what others have produced and see how it can be improved upon.

Wikis and collaborative docs – letting people collaboratively work on a document allows them to share ideas, see other people’s contributions and build on them. Web pages – simple web pages can be used as job-aids or implementation aids, helping people to put their learning into practice or to remind them of key points.

For nearly all of our project communications within LearningAge Solutions we now use Basecamp, an online project management and collaboration tool. We supplement this with Google Docs for collaborative document creation, have started using Prezi for storyboarding complex branching scenarios and Mindmeister for top level instructional design.

Design in ways for students to collaborate on assignments and add to the body of knowledge. What I get great satisfaction from is watching that core of 12 or so work together and collaborate. Design assignments where students can practice these skills. Consider whether you will accredit or grade students and what form this will take.

This collaboration can be achieved using internal social networks or, if you use something like twitter, creating a #hashtag for each goal. Goal-based learning works best when there is a mechanism to allow learners to connect socially and learn from each other. This is another difference to Action Mapping.

Because of the way we use social networks in our home lives, there is an increasing expectation that learning should be collaborative and social too. We even have a new word ‘gamification’ – like it or loathe it; it’s this season’s buzzword (see below). Learning is social. Learning experiences have gotten shorter.

Technology can facilitate collaboration and networking and provide a virtual space in which informal learning can take place and, to a certain extent, be tracked. How can informal learning be harnessed? Many of the technologies used in elearning can provide answers as to how to harness informal learning.

This could be implementation guides, follow-up webinars, telephone coaching, peer-to-peer support or a collaborative wiki. Next be explicit about what the things are that they might put into practice – give them a menu to choose from. Finally, give them support in putting new skills into practice.

Give people the opportunity to collaborate with each other. The bite-sized learning must be closely aligned to organisation goals. Learning can play a key role in communicating these goals and galvanising people to work towards them. You’ll weather the storm better if everyone pulls together as a team.

The links to all this additional media are placed on collaborative mindmaps which show the learning outcomes for each module. A collaborative mindmap is simply one that many people can edit at once.

It should be collaborative and peer-to-peer, not tutor-to-student top down. Here are my thoughts: Learning experiences should be based around the application of learning, so activity-based, perhaps involving simulations, and opportunities for practice and feedback. It should be measurable.

Social and collaborative learning is also attracting a lot of interest, if not yet being actually translated much into the work environment. Today’s technology makes digital learning more agile, relevant and immediate than ever before. With huge improvements in mobile technology, job aids can be delivered into your learner’s pockets.

The creative process is collaborative and social – not just an individual thing. They may not be what you end up with in terms of the solution, but thinking as widely as possible will inevitably lead you to be more creative and help you to find the most memorable solution for your audience.

Just as collaboration can enrich an online learning experience, it can also be key to improving our understanding of what great elearning design means. Does it require a full-blown elearning solution or could you use something cheaper and simpler, such as informal media? 4. Work with your peers and share knowledge.

I’m really excited by this collaboration and the direction it could take our work. Before I knew it (over a few post conference drinks) I had nine people signed up for the project including some of the global leading lights in transmedia. I’ll be blogging about it as we progress, so watch this space.

Guest post from my LearningAge co-director, Tess Robinson… Have the right attitude. Open your mind to all kinds of weird and wonderful possibilities. Don’t discount anything at first. Creativity is impossible to achieve if you are not brave enough to look beyond your normal paradigms. Give yourself time.

I came away with massive respect for those involved in filmmaking – the level of coordination, collaboration and creativity was inspiring. We were filming some of the live action and all of the pyrotechnics – real feature film quality stuff with huge explosions and depth charges.
