Learning -- like structure, risk free environment, lack tech skills but open to learning on computer. Classes in school were big. Most research has common flaws/consistency -- fail to take into account gender diff and socio-cultural and economic differences. Next topic will be on Second Life/virtual worlds.

Harold Jarche says, The future of learning is DIY : This is the power of informal learning, if organisations decide to enable it. Brent Schenkler has been on a soapbox recently, talking about the death of ISD in the wake of informal learning. In small companies, DIY/informal learning is pretty much all you got.

Much of what I learn feeds right into these changes we see in the industry with the focus on informal learning and social media.

Before signing up for the ID program I had both been apprenticed into ID by degreed-IDers and I had gone to my college library (where I work) and checked out books on learning theory and ID in order to understand the educational/learning management field. This type of learning is not rewarded, and is somehow viewed as not valid.

Wouldnt it be revealing to quiz learners 15 minutes into a learning experience with one question: List 3 of the x learning objectives listed at the beginning of class. I sat in on a couple of Michael Allens sessions at ASTD 2007 and when he advised us to spare our learners from learning objectives, it really surprised me.

What I am learning in class, and what I see in the real world point to a disconnect. Id say that most faculty in class dont explore how to put these skills into good use in the real world. Others hide behind the vail of "I dont want to hinder your creativity" so Ive learned who I ask for help.
