Ignoring Informal
However, I noticed something that really struck me, based upon the work I’ve been doing with my colleagues in the Internet Time Alliance (formerly TogetherLearn).
I wonder if their interventions include expertise finders and collaboration tools. I received in the mail an offer for a 3 book set titled Improving Performance in the Workplace . It’s associated with ISPI, and greatly reflects their Human Performance Technology approach, which I generally laud as going beyond instructional design.

Virtual Worlds: Affordances and Learning

I’ve previously posted my thoughts on virtual worlds, but I had a wee bit of a revelation that I want to get clear in my head, and it ties into several things that went on at the conference.

Informal Learning 2.0: What’s in it for me?
Collaboration rules. modern learning ecology embraces departments and disciplines that were once considered separate functions: training, independent study, collaboration, knowledge management, corporate communications, organizational development, communities of practice, leadership development, expertise location, and social media. That’s why we formed this braintrust called togetherLearn. I’d like to build on Harold’s previous post about Informal Learning 2.0. From our perspective, Informal Learning 2.0

Soft skills are foundational competencies
It will also require the “soft skills” to do media relations or “wiki” relations, interacting daily with a range of customers and outside contributors, as well as collaborating with others in the company.
Soft skills, especially collaboration and networking, will become more important than hard skills.

We’re starting to see some interest in our TogetherLearn initiative and one of the main drivers seems to be cost-reduction. collaboration projects, I see growth. Because the business will find their collaboration needs to grow in 2009, while they see IT providing them with fewer services.

Learning Together
Dave developed a three axis model - Codified, Emergent, Collaborative to type-cast a community:
We develop a list of questions to create the type and then we can map types to common use cases, best practices, typical challenges, appropriate technology, strategies, etc… Once we identify a Collaborative Community paradigm (like the Ace example above), it could then kick off a whole set of best practices and approaches related to this paradigm.

Imagine organising an international group of collaborators without access to Voice over IP (costs increase) or without presence monitoring (who’s available in what time zone) or without shared documents online (what’s the latest version?).
Just think about the advantages that these technologies provide us in connecting, collaborating, sharing and learning. INATT makes sense because most of us realise that people make things happen, not technology. It’s not about the technology is a rallying cry amongst many in education or in fields that are being disrupted by

Future business of learning
Now we’re getting collaboration and informal learning slapped on legacy systems, but much of it is lipstick on a pig. Tags: Learning TogetherLear The future business of Learning (or whatever name we finally settle on) lies in providing organisations with the tools, techniques and environments to support them in building employee capability and performance in an increasing range of areas.
