In my presentation yesterday, I was talking about how to get informal learning going. The point, however, is from the point of the view of the learner, all the resources needed are ‘to hand’ through every stage of knowledge work. Our approach to informal learning similarly needs to reflect our natural learning.

There has been a lot of talk about formal vs. informal learning in the educational blogosphere and when it comes right down to it, formal learning is the most effective. The processes have been formalized, in knowledge work, many of the processes are formalized. Here's why.

A big part of education is learning how to do research and really that's where you learn the foundations of knowledge work. If you attended college and used a card catalog and microfiche reader, then you very likely were basically taught how to operate when it was hard to find information. I'm good at filtering information.
