EduTech Wiki. Instructional Design. Learning in the Networked Era: A year of online professional development opportunities. The Social Learning Centre is a Learning Community for learning professionals (in both education and the workplace) to support their ongoing professional development by learning from their peers as well as leading industry practitioners and thought leaders from around the world.
Since setting up the Social Learning Centre (SLC) earlier this year (which now has over 1,600 members) I have organized a large number of webinars, workshops and other events. The (2-week long) workshops have proved to be particularly popular – many of which have been led by my ITA colleague, Harold Jarche – as these focus on supporting interaction and conversation between the participants so that they can share ideas, experiences and resources – and learn from one another. We have received a lot of good feedback, like this message. We are also offering a new format for the workshop, so they will now run over a period of one calendar month.
