Online social workshop at the Social Learning Centre starts Monday 27 May.

Organising a formal online social learning experience for the workplace is much more than just requiring people to use some social media tools in an online course, rather it means applying 5 fundamental pedagogical principles:

  1. scaffolding the social learning experience
  2. offering as much autonomy as possible
  3. focusing on enabling the social interaction
  4. supporting the experience with content as appropriate,  and 
  5. driving it with a performance outcome in mind 

You can read more about the importance of these principles for underpinning a successful formal online social learning experience in my blog post, 5 principles for a successful formal online social learning experience.

This workshop will help you plan a formal online social learning experience as well as scaffold its framework. It will also provide the opportunity for you to run a short session yourself with the other participants.

Although this workshop is primarily aimed at those active in workplace learning, it will also be suitable for those in education.

AGENDA: 
Part 1 : 27 MAY - 7 JUNE
 Week 1:  Planning your workshop
Weeks 2-3: Scaffolding the framework

Break to allow time for you to work on your own online social learning experience

Part 2 : 15 JULY - 7 AUGUST
Weeks 4-5: Running your own mini online social learning session. Members are encouraged to participate in as many as of the other online social expereinces they can.
Week 6: Review: reflections on your own experience both as an organiser and participant.

“A revolution is a fundamental change in power or organizational structures that takes place in a relatively short period of time.” (Wikipedia)

I've had such a lot of interest in the new book I'm working on, The Workplace Learning Revolution, that I decided to create a free mini e-book version.

This 24 page document provides an overview of how the Internet is changing the way we learn at work and how organisations can support these new ways of learning.  

It also provides links to the more comprehensive version that I am building online.

I've put the document on Slideshare, where you can download a copy, but below is the embedded version.
