BOZARTHZONE MARCH 3, 2012 What Does Learning Look Like? This. 3 Birds, One Stone Bird 1: I do lots of workshops on using social media for learning, and I struggle to help participants see the possibilities of using images rather than text-based approaches in their work. Thanks to email and discussion boards, we tend to fall into "comment here, post there, respond to that" kinds of interactions.

Design conferences | LEARNING AND WORKING ON THE WEB MARCH 3, 2012 Distributed research needs collaborative researchers Tweet “What Sanofi is doing is reducing its own internal research capacity,” he said. The days when we locked all of our scientists up in a building and put them on a nice tree-lined campus are done. We will do less of our own research. We’re not going to get out of research. ” It seems Sanofi is moving to a more networked way of doing business. Narration of Work.

Today I read Jane Bozarth 's post on " What Does Learning Look Like? This " and it gave me a new appreciation to something I love to do and is in fact one of the statements I make why I have this blog. I strive to learn one new thing each day.". As Jane's post points out, how many of us really notice when and how we are learning. It happens constantly, yet we often don't recognize those moments nor do we share our findings with others.

Assuming you are running it very much out of the box and so with little by way of customisation and integrated apps. MORE >> -
GEORGE SIEMENS | SATURDAY, MARCH 3, 2012 Connected Learning: What have they done with Alec, Will, Vicki? If I was Alec Couros, Will Richardson, Vicki Davis, Steve Hargadon, or any of the thousands of K-12 educators that have been pushing for networked/connected learning for years (in Will’s case, more than a decade), I’d be fairly irritated to have been written out of the vision of connected learning that is now emerging from DML. don’t see any mention of the folks that have been pushing for open, social, networked, and collaborative pedagogical models on the site’s connected learning principles. Alec Couros, as an example, did his dissertation on the topic. MORE >> -
