I've always been a big believer in the value and power of informal learning. Over the past few years, I've written quite a few posts about informal learning. Informal Learning - Let's Get Real Informal Learning - Let's Get Real - Part II Elves, Measuring Results and Informal Learning Formalizing and Investing in Informal Learning Numbers and Informal Learning The Real Challenge around Informal Learning More on the Form of Informal The challenge for me has always been the The Paradox of Informal Learning (Form of Informal?) - it's defining systems

A comment from Phil LeNir on last week’s informal learning strategy post got me thinking more about the human element with regard to informal learning. It’s easy to get so wrapped up in creating or linking learning assets for quick access that we forget about enabling the human interactions that are really the most effective way we learn informally.
As I see it, there are five key human roles in an informal learning strategy:

In my last post I listed ten strategies for integrating learning with work. They are a combination of concepts and methods that build knowledge and bring learning into day to day activities and workflow.

I’ve worked in learning design and management in both business and higher education settings and the differences in how e-learning technology is used in these two worlds is striking. Business e-learning has focused on short self-paced, independent, interactive learning module typically delivered via an LMS designed to store, deliver and track progress (think Plateau/SumTotal etc) .
In contrast, higher education e-learning has been build on their tradition of distance learning and courses delivered over longer periods of time (usually a semester), using LMS systems built on collaborative environments that support communication between students, instructors and peers (think Blackboard/Web CT).

Susan Stucky (IBM) was the keynote speaker. She had a good presentation with bits of valuable information, but it seemed a little scattered and really didn't get into the details of how IBM is applying virtual worlds (other than an example of how they conduct rehearsal exercises"). When e-Learning came along, people held the same structure from classroom and text (i.e. I attended the Federal Consortium on Virtual Worlds at the National Defense University on Friday. This was the "first annual" event put on by IRMC, and overall, it was a success.
