Social Learning Communities It was interesting that ASTD DC / Todd Slater has created a Ning community. People end up staying home to be able to attend virtual events. And it will make you feel much more part of the event. That certainly goes along with what we’ve done with LearnTrends and what’s going on with social learning.

Ning really makes it easy to do one of these. If several people were interested in a topic, they can easily pull together a few speakers, create a ning group and set up a quick conference. Really, I'm not sure that a week long event that we've designed is the model to use. The tools are there to make these things happen.

Charles talks about the Changing Expectations of CLOs: Many CLOs in large corporations around the world now subscribe to the view that most organisational learning is informal and even where formal learning is used they expect more than a one-off event from their suppliers.

Using SharePoint for Event Planning & Organizing Just like we used a Wiki one year and Ning another to support the online conference LearnTrends , SharePoint can be used to manage all types of events, especially internal events. Some used it to track bugs. Some with Subject Matter experts. were similar.

The social media component provides the medium for discussions about the learning, the discussion that is as equally as valuable as the learning event itself. In fact, most of the knowledge sharing that takes place in one of two ways: 1.

Kapp Notes

JANUARY 15, 2009

Have events outside of the classroom like "brown bag lunch and learns". But Facebook , LinkedIn , Ning and IntroNetworks are all great tools for having academically focused learning communities in an online setting. Learning Communities start in the classroom. Begin with a policy of including each student in discussions.

Alternatives to ILT events The Internet has not only changed the way we communicate but also our concept of 'freely available'. Many of them are free and most are certainly better approaches for learning than a solid 3-day away-from-job course.

Two weeks before the event, I poured over feedback from members who attended our week-long online session last November. It dawned on me that we could accommodate everyone’s schedule if we let the event follow the sun around the world. It’s important to inject fun into the event. Need fun stuff sprinkled throughout.

Its not about a course, or a module, or some predetermined event online or off. It never crosses their mind to feel the need to start a NING community or feel driven to start a blog. But if you have accepted the new eLearning models of the 21st century then you probably already have a few ideas of your own.

If you intend on being in this industry in the next five years, my guess is your company will either lead the way in social learning events, or you’ll be the one asked why your company is not participating yet. Start with a service like Yammer or Ning to control the audience. Goes without saying…get immersed in social networking.
