Have you ever been to a conference where the presenter asks the audience, “Who’s implemented a mobile learning strategy?”, Of course the question might not revolve around mobile learning, but rather gamification, or enterprise social networking, or flipped classrooms, or whatever the hot topic may be.

There are two sides of the innovation coin in corporate learning & development: technology and pedagogy. Traditional ways of learning in the workplace are, by definition, ingrained in the psyche of the vast majority of the workforce.

Good centuries-old social networking. Bloggers and Twitterati are self-evident social media fans, so it’s to be expected that some of them will adopt an evangelical view of the role of Web 2.0 Drawing all this down to the less heady world of e-learning, I can certainly see a parallel. in world affairs.

Our enterprise social network was deluged with positive comments, ranging from wishes of congratulations to urges to post it onto YouTube. Attendant: Greg…? Customer: Greg’s not here. It’s cheeky; it’s self-deprecating; and above all, it’s funny. And it set the organisation alight.

It’s how the teacher uses that content to support learning that will make the difference. While MOOCs typically comprise video clips and perhaps a quiz, they will inevitably include more instructional devices to assist distance learning (and remain competitive).

When we worry about the status of their credentials or lose sleep over their completion rates, we’re perpetuating an out-dated paradigm of education based on formal learning. I prefer to see MOOCs through the lens of informal learning which values the learning over its bureaucracy. I see more scope in pull learning.
