Marco Kalz :: Blog :: Where are the learning networks?

December 18, 2008

The answer might be too simple: Out there! In many discussions I hear the argument that there are no learning networks currently available which you can take to study or to do research. Maybe the notion of an institutionally controlled or offered learning network might not be reality yet, but if we take the many self-organized learning networks out there you could also argue that the concept of learning networks has just become reality through the widespread use of social software and that the theoretical ideas behind learning networks (self-organisation, emergence, problem-driven short time cooperation etc.) are their foundations as well. Maybe the following video might support my argument a little:

  1. Nice video Marco. It really sums up the things we are busy with to support learning in the 21 century.

    I wish it would be in German than I could present it to my family and they finally understand what I'm busy with. Wink

    Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you as well.

  2. There is a great service for attaching subtitles to video content in another language then your own called DotSub. Maybe you should give it a try.

     Same to you :-).
