KAPP NOTES DECEMBER 15, 2011 Gamification, Virtual Worlds and The Gartner Hype Cycle For those of you who do not know, the Gartner Hype Cycle is a graphical depiction of technology on a curve showing where technology is in terms of maturity. The Hype Cycle provides strategists and planners with an assessment of the maturity, business benefit and future direction of certain technologies.

In this post, I wantto talk about the different hats that we need to don as community managers.This was well put in the diagram by Andy Wibbels which you can see in this post called Inside the Mind of a Community Manager.It graphically represents a number of things a community manager needs to be aware of in her/his role. In my post, I want to explore all the "hats" a community manager needs to wear to execute her role. What we are asking for is a behaviour change. | | CLIVE ON LEARNING DECEMBER 15, 2011 Massively scalable training Some fantastic progress has been made recently in realising the concept of massively scalable education. You've probably already heard plenty about the Khan Academy , which has contributed to the maths education of millions, as well as the free online courses being run by faculty at Stanford University. An Introduction to Artificial Intelligence , led by Peter Norvig and Sebastian Thrun, attracted some 160,000 enquiries, of which 25,000 or more have made it through to its conclusion. Interested as I am in all this, my work is not in education, it is in training. There is, of course, an overlap. | | | | | | | | | -

LEARNING CONVERSATIONS | THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15, 2011 Is your website legal? Probably not. In the UK, there are a number of things your website must do. Some only apply to companies.

Registered office address. See: Companies House FAQ on Trading Disclosures. Some apply to virtually everyone. In particular, the new rule that says you must ask visitors if they are happy to accept cookies. See: Information Commissioner's Office Guide to Cookies and today's news article from ICO. MORE >> -
