Here is some thoughts about how that maps out in two areas: Facebook, and Twitter. Having a twitter account is a necessary start, maybe several. You need information: photos, events. Twitter/Facebook Integration. Once you’ve got the identity, then you need to align your Facebook and Twitter strategies.

While I couldn’t participate in the twitter chat they held, I optimistically weighed in: “learning in 2024 will look like individualized personal mentoring via augmented reality, AI, and the network” However, I thought I would elaborate in line with a series of followup posts leveraging the #lrn2024 hashtag.

And Twitter , of course. A personal information system : I use both Notability and Notes to take notes. Reflection: this overlaps with the personal information system. I’ve used Zoom to share. A range of social networks : I use LinkedIn professionally, as well as Slack. I stay in touch with my ITA colleagues via Skype.

Twitter: I am pointed to many amazing and interesting things via Twitter. It often leads me to Wikipedia (my preferred source, teachers take note), but regularly (e.g. 99.99% of the time) provides me with links that give me the answer i need. So that’s my list, what’s yours?

How can you not see that social augments formal learning (Jane Bozarth has a whole new book on the topic) as well as provides new opportunities for informal learning and performance support? While I had my iPhone (used the GPS function a couple of time), I couldn’t get a signal and check email or twitter.

Last night we held the first #lrnchat , a Twitter learning chat. As mentioned before, it was an idea from Marcia Conner based upon her previous experience with other chats and enthusiasm for Twitter. Harold Jarche also opined that maybe Twitter wasn’t the right tool for chatting. It was very worthwhile.

Harold Jarche talks about our personal knowledge management task, and in that, there are the tools I use to capture and share my own thinking (like this), and tools I use to go out and find or follow information. On the information finding/sharing path, some tools I use include: Google – like everyone else, I’m all over searching.

twitter) allows you to follow people who spark thoughts, and ask questions of your followers. One of the coming roles for learning designers is facilitating the informal learning as well as the formal, I suggest. You need mechanisms to ask questions, find people, share thoughts. Microblogging (e.g.

While your systems may vary, your results should be sources for you to find information, present yourself in your various communities, and to share your thoughts. Twitter, of course, is where I follow folks of interest professionally, personally, or even politically. Let’s do this by platform. Clark Quinn, not Quinnovation.

When they also are leaving a trail of what they think is interesting (e.g.

At the same time, Marcia Conner was asking for examples of how someone’s Twitter/Facebook (T/FB) comments have changed your opinion of them. Blogs tend to be more formal (tends, mind you), while Twitter and Facebook cross the boundary into informal. And maybe then not worthy of being called communities?

Last week on the #chat2lrn twitter chat, the topic was microlearning. Just like I can look up the specs on the resolution of my computer screen, use that information, but have to look it up again next time. You could follow the steps and get the job done and yet need to access it again if you ever needed it.

What somewhat surprised me is how much other sites are being blocked: Twitter 11.5% This also shows the discrepancy in the perspective of getting information via a resource like Wikipedia vs. getting it from other people via something like LinkedIn. But most surprising - LinkedIn being blocked by 7.9%.

On our weekly twitter learning fest, #lrnchat , I regularly identify myself as a learning experience design strategist. I don’t always assume people know what that means, but for that audience I figure they can infer what it means. When you think about creating learning experiences, you are talking about design.

I knew about the importance (having been steeped in Vygotsky in grad school), but it hadn’t hit home quite as viscerally as this year, and I’ve become more than a convert, in fact an evangelist, about the opportunities, both formal and informal.

The first one was something I heard about on Twitter. A bad interface, with an insufficient lack of information, and I didn’t know who to ask. Perhaps there were more comprehensive information resources available, but I didn’t easily find them. Then, sometimes, I choose to stretch in other ways.

Virginia Yonkers told us - I would like to know how to manage the information flows in social networks. I have been part of Ning groups before, but find it overwhelming, very quickly because there seems to be multiple inputs for information. Social networks have a tendency to be a bit messy. As a teacher, we learn how to manage that.

Of late, there’ve been a few dialogs on Twitter. As I opined in the recent podcast I was interviewed in, using Twitter for a dialog is kind of new. And it’s fun, and informative, but occasionally I need to go deeper. However, my point is to try to keep learning not being information dump and knowledge test.

Gina Minks, who I know only through Twitter (@gminks), tho’ hope to meet someday, tagged me for the following Questions from On. It was during that period that the web came out, following on initiatives like WAIS and Gopher that provided ways to store and find information on line. How has the Web changed business and society?

I like having a stream of information, though it could be via Twitter. This has almost always been the case, but it’s nice to have informed people ready and willing to help. Now I am happy using an app, and it’s become a must-have. I like it when I can choose sessions for my schedule and have reminders.
