Digital Teaching & Learning: Creating My Own Social Network (Blog Response 1)
-
But because I learned literacy as a one-direction skill (you read, think about it, and move on), I hardly ever post a reply to the blogs or discussion boards I read. I haven’t fully embraced the conversational, read-WRITE aspect of the internet yet.

Not Someday. Today.: INSYS497 Final Reflections
-
Using my news aggregator alone has been huge for me. At this point, however, I still feel like my network is a one way road, with all of the information traveling TO me. It is a work in progress, and I hope to continue growing into a contributor in my own learning network.

Also valuable was the requirement to respond to a professional blogger’s post. This was a bit intimidating and without being an assignment, I’m not sure I would have done it on my own.

Learners as little as forty years ago would complete the
required schooling and enter a career that would often last a lifetime.
Information development was slow. The life of knowledge was measured in
decades. Today, these foundational principles have been altered. Knowledge
is growing exponentially. In many fields the life of knowledge is now
measured in months and years. Gonzalez (2004) describes the challenges
of rapidly diminishing knowledge life:
“One of the most persuasive factors is the shrinking
half-life of knowledge. The “half-life of knowledge” is
the time span from when knowledge -
- Many learners will move into a variety of different, possibly unrelated
fields over the course of their lifetime. - Informal learning is a significant aspect of our learning experience.
Formal education no longer comprises the majority of our learning. Learning
now occurs in a variety of ways – through communities of practice,
personal networks, and through completion of work-related tasks. - Learning is a continual process, lasting for a lifetime. Learning
and work related activities are no longer separate. In many situations,
they are the same. - Technology is altering (rewiring) our brains. The tools we use define
and shape our thinking. - The organization and the individual are both learning organisms.
Increased attention to knowledge management highlights the need for
a theory that attempts to explain the link between individual and organizational
learning.
