TOPYX SOCIAL LEARNING JUNE 6, 2012 Social media. All the kids are doing it. Social media growth in the learning process, even at the primary education level, points to the increased importance of social learning management systems (LMS) value in the workplace. It comes down to how people what to learn. Revolutionary concepts need a ‘sandbox’ to be tried and tested. I do not know. What can we learn from this?

Not off the charts like at Deloitte , yet very much alive and growing. It warms my heart to see my colleagues asking and answering questions, sharing web articles, crowdsourcing ideas, gathering feedback, praising team mates, comparing notes on where to buy the best coffee, and even whining a little. Every so often I’m asked by a peer at another company what they can do to increase the use of Yammer in their own organisation. The results are summarised in the following graph.

TOPYX SOCIAL LEARNING | MONDAY, JUNE 25, 2012 Apple iSchool? There is no doubt that Apple is making all the right moves. But, will they step into the murky waters of traditional education?

BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE | TUESDAY, JUNE 19, 2012 Hands On Guide: How We Used iBooks Author to Replace PC-Based eLearning January’s announcement of iBooks Author , Apple’s free tool for creating multi-touch books for the iPad, was big news for educators. And while most of the focus has been on textbooks and classroom learning, we think there is a huge opportunity for workplace learning and training to leverage iBooks as well. For companies already using iPads in their organization, an iBook is a great way to deliver content. We are thrilled with the result…so much so that BLP president Sharon Boller and Dow’s Karla Simpson presented the iBook at the 2012 mLearnCon conference in San Jose. MORE >>
