1. Memory in the Age of Google?
2. 30 Minute Video on Learning Marketplace 2013.
1. Memory in the Age of Google: How do our learners approach “memorizing” differently when the content is also online? When do we (and our learners) memorize at deep memory, at light memory, at recall, and when do we just want to know how to get to the knowledge - online at the moment of need.
I am delighted that one of my favorite researchers in this area, Betsy Sparrow from Columbia University, will be a keynote speaker on the opening night of Learning 2013 - exploring “Knowledge in the Age of Google.” We will explore these key issues interactively with Betsy:
* How do we “talk about” different types of memory? When is something in deep, instant recall? When is it refreshable?
* How are learners “sorting” knowledge when it is also online externally or on a Corporate Intranet?
* If a learner can “look it up”, are they less likely to memorize it?
