3. At-Home Workers & Learning: Are They Different?

1. Social & Collaborative Learning Designs Infographic: The conversation about “Social Learning” is way too fuzzy. Many groups think that Social Learning is about leveraging external Social Media (LinkedIn, Facebook) or pointing people to a SharePoint site. We need a richer, broader and more in-depth conversation about this emerging arena.

The MASIE Center has produced a Social & Collaborative Learning Designs infographic, highlighting multiple avenues and pathways organizations are pursuing to reach the goal of “Working Together”.

2. Josh Bersin at Learning 2012 - Cooperating Organization: We are pleased to bring together a rich and diverse set of Thought Leaders at Learning 2012. It has been years since we have worked together and I am looking forward to Josh Bersin joining me in Orlando to discuss key trends and futures in Learning and Talent. 

“This is a very exciting time in the corporate learning industry and I look forward to sharing and collaborating with Elliott Masie at Learning 2012”, said Josh Bersin, who will present a research perspective and join me in a General Session dialogue on key factors our field faces.

Bersin & Associates will be a Cooperating Organization at Learning 2012, along with ASTD, ISPI, MPI and other key groups in our industry. Info at http://www.learning2012.com/item/josh-bersin-elliott-masie-dialgoue.html

3. At-Home Workers and Learning: Are They Different? More or Less Learning Activities? Here is a quick question for Learning TRENDS readers:

In your organization, are “at-home” based workers participating in learning and training differently than “at-office” workers? Do they do more or less eLearning, webinars or classroom? And, do they “need” classroom events more, as it provides face-to-face time? 

Send me a quick note to emasie@masie.com  I’ll print a summary next week.
