One of his leading principles was: “Questions lie at the heart of learning to draw out what they already know, rather than imposing per-determined views” Plato with his Academy didn’t only lay the foundation for our universities but also for life long learning.

As any type of informal learning you can’t organize this, but you can facilitate this. What about the learning department, do they play a role? Monitoring the information will give you loads of valuable information. If you formalize the information in this way and make it available you would be adding value.

FEBRUARY 20, 2011

I believe that in the long-term we will move from formal e-learning (courses in a LMS or classroom) more and more towards just-in-time workplace learning that supports the informal learning processes. Formal learning will always be there, but now it is the main or only focus of e-Learning.

The sessions of today contained a lot of information. Three perspectives on making mobile e-Learning work. I think that corporations failed to facilitate social learning and that they can’t measure it, so for them it isn’t there. Social learning is part of informal learning, you can’t control that.

There is a great lesson there for all managers (see my blog on his theory), but this goes for e-Learning professionals to. In the e-Learning field we make a lot of decisions for the learner instead of facilitating them. I recently even read a blog on how to formalize informal learning, this is nonsense.
