An Aha Moment - del.icio.us as Indicator of Valuable Content - Importantly My Content

Tony Karrer

APRIL 2, 2007

I saw a post by Ray Sims that quoted Bill Ives writing: Putting my blog posts into del.icio.us also allows me to see who else tagged these posts to determine the ones that others found useful enough to tag in del.icio.us. Bookmarks might tell me about my top ten posts (counted by page view). But here's the "aha" for me.

Are you playing the role of the Subject Matter Expert instead of the Instructional Designer?

This is why training in how to (really) design instruction is so important (for e-learning, classroom instruction, and informal learning).
