This month’s Big Question on Learning Circuits Blog seeks to understand how we are keeping up with the increasingly complex tools and technologies landscape. I reflect on this question from an organization perspective as opposed to an individual’s perspective. Here’s what we are doing in our organization: 1.

The questions prompt quite a lively and interesting discussion among online community members. The Learning Circuits Big Question for May is: How do we need to change in what we do in order to address learning/performance needs that are on-demand? So, there you have it…my answer to this month’s big question.

This month's ASTD Learning Circuit's Blog Big Question is "How do I communicate the value of social media as a learning tool to my organization?" Address the need to share knowledge over distances or the value of timely information to sales tactics, don't focus on the technology.

This month's Big Question is "how do we leverage open content in workplace learning?" To learn more about about some of opportunities available in open content, I visited the sites listed on the Big Question post. So, back to the Big Question. These were OER Commons and Open Courseware Consortium.

This month's Big Question at Learning Circuits is on working with subject matter experts (SME). First off, thank you Tony at Learning Circuits for using my suggestion as this month's question. Ask the right questions (Analysis) Never assume the SME knows the training need. Suggest they look at courses already available.

Our ability to store and transfer extra-genetic information has pretty much remained the same, bound by language itself, and simply because of biological boundaries imposed by our physiology. While you hold that thought, it’s good to think that the technology is on the cusp of providing an ‘infinite’ amount of information.

There’s a new Big Question on the Learning Circuits blog and it’s about questions. It builds on a great posting by George Siemens in which he describes Questions I’m no longer asking , in other words what issues are now so cut and dried that to keep questioning them would be a waste of energy.

The question of the month #LCBQ is: How do you assess whether your informal learning, social learning, continuous learning and performance support initiatives have the desired impact or if they achieve the desired results? Therefore if we want to measure the impact of learning (formal or informal) we need to measure that impact.

The other part of this thought process is that the feedback on my Top 10 eLearning Predictions for 2010 was that I should have Information Overload and Information Filtering as my user chosen prediction number 10. And that challenge is somewhat hinted at in this month’s big question: Instruction in a Information Snacking Culture?

Will anyone still do formal training in a future in which all learning is informal and on-the-job? Of course, many people feel they know it all after a two day course, but then have you seen how bad so much e-learning is? Does e-learning actually provide a much more secure future? First thought: I'm not sure.

The teacher may use this information to adapt his class teachings. Especially if you have the ambition to monitor both formal and informal activities of employees it might be useful.

If the learner is able to apply their knowledge through interactions, it will assist them in processing the information in more depth, and they will have a higher likelihood of recalling the information and transferring it to a real-world setting. But first the big question…How interactive does your interactivity need to be?

The Big Question for January in the Learning Circuits Blog is, rather predictably, what are your predictions for 2010? In 2009 I predicted : Most of the cool stuff (informal learning, social media, games and sims, mobile learning) will have to stay on the back burner, because management will simply not be interested in experimenting.

The February Big Question goes to the root of what The Big Question is all about. In a session on Informal Learning by Jay Cross, Harold Jarche and Judy Brown at ASTD TechKnowledge, you could easily see great questions getting raised by both the presenters and the audience. Perhaps we'll do that in future.

or do they learn more informally (from peers, managers, etc.)? You should find out, and here’s why: Informal learning accounts for over 75% of the learning taking place in organizations today. In the past many companies viewed informal learning as a negative reflection on their formal training programs. Reality Check.

In the Learning Circuits Blog, the big question for October is "I'm interested in a career in e-learning. If you prefer a more informal, self-directed approach, start reading books, blogs and magazines and attending conferences. What should I do first?" The sources for this will vary enormously from country to country.
