They ask what the technology could do and how they could use it in their organization. For social technologies like elgg to work in an organization, i believe you need to look beyond the technology and develop a clear concept of the organization’s knowledge processes and how you would think the technology could support those processes. After being “a friend” and lurking for a while, i became a full (paying) member of the CP Square (CP2) community. CP Square is a community of practice about communities of practice.

8226; Use advance organizers to put the upcoming content into context and to pre-organise it. In my previous article , I proposed a Taxonomy of Learning Theories to organise a few of the myriad of theories into some semblance of order, and to assist instructional designers in using theory to inform their work.

Many organizations have separate departments in these (and other) disciplines, all sharing the mission of impacting organizational performance.
Bringing these organizations all under one roof could accelerate this cross fertilization of ideas, result in innovative new approaches and reduce the redundancy and confusion that exists for line managers. A reasonably neutral label for this organization might be “Organization In a blog post while back i mentioned it might be nice to see the training function morph into something more akin to an organizational effectiveness unit in the next ten years.

Communities of living organisms that interact dynamically with their environment. Later she says, “The ecosystem is a combination of the organisms and the environment.” KEY: Living organisms; environment; balance. Unlike a traditional blended learning environment where (WARNING - this is an unusually long post for me. And, as Mark Oehlert pointed out recently, I echo Mark Twain ’s quote, “I didn’t have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.”

Originally, as many of us remember, organizations started repurposing all their programs and developed linear, formal training programs for the web. In 2001 we had a global recession, which even further accelerated the transition as organizations tried to drastically reduce instructor-led training to save money. Organizations realized that "e-learning" was not as all-powerful as we once imagined, and the concepts Over the last year or so we have talked with hundreds of companies about their desire to transform their corporate training programs to take advantage of social networking, knowledge management, communities of practice, and better models of blended learning.

For Wiki-like capabilities, it likely is fine for an LMS to provide these and for learning organizations to use them. These are going to be real challenges for learning organizations and trainers moving forward. Janet Clarey wrote an interesting blog post in response to the relatively recent edupunk meme which is basically an ideology that DIY learning and repurposing content is the way to go (and somewhat the ONLY way to go). Janet juxtaposes the recent inclusion of eLearning 2.0

Knowledge workers need to be able to grasp what’s going on rapidly if the organization is going to be adaptive and agile; and they’ll need to know what’s going on across geographic and functional boundaries in order to re-use work that’s already been done and avoid duplicating effort.
