Hence, the importance of communities of practice. He described self-organizing learning ecologies (what I have called learnscapes and workscapes) in which communities of practice collide and overlap, continuously creating and consuming knowledge. These concepts are at the heart of my book on Informal Learning.

I Finally Get It--Why Social Networking is so Important What did I learn: The importance of Social Networking and SoMe lie in their ability to help us make sense of the confusing mass of information that bombards us everyday.

For all the talk about networks and knowledge sharing, it appears many organizations aren’t practicing it. In the middle of 2008, a notice appeared on the Informal Learning blog (informl.com) requesting participation in a survey of informal and Web 2.0 learning practices.

Social knowledge management consultant Harold Jarche suggests there are multiple layers, from collaborating in work teams, to collective learning in communities of practice, to cooperative learning with peers and friends in our networks (Figure 1).

Chefs are a community of like-minded individuals who identify with one another, advance the practice of their profession, and help new entrants join the profession. Ten years ago, the common wisdom was that you could not establish a community of practice. Mind you, formal learning doesn’t teach everything.

Think about it: PDFs display structured text and pretty pictures. If we dispense with online courses in favour of PDFs, how can we incorporate interactivity into the learning experience? Enter the Informal Learning Environment (ILE). Unlike a VLE, an ILE is strictly informal. Unlike a PLE, an ILE is communal.
