The Bamboo Project Blog: Does Blogging Replace Action? Sometimes It IS the Action!

  • have to agree with Perla. Part of most nonprofit missions is to persuade others to join their causes and blogging creates a great vehicle for doing this. But I'd take it one step further and say that in many cases blogging can BECOME the action--it can be the service or activity that needs to take place in order to support the organization in various aspects of its work. It's not something that you do INSTEAD of working--it's something you're doing because it's work that achieves your organization's mission.

The Bamboo Project Blog: Seven Strategies for Supporting Personal Learning Environments at Work


  • Try Introducing Tools in the Context of Productivity and Making Work Easier
    A lot of staff feel overwhelmed by their workloads and may see the introduction of PLE tools as another thing on the To Do list. It may make sense to introduce tools as part of better, more efficient ways to get work done, rather than as tools of personal learning. Not everyone gets excited by learning, especially if they think it's on top of their regular work load. For example, I've used wikis to manage my own projects and RSS as a way to stay on top of information I need for my job. This approach might be more appealing to some people. You can point out to them later that these same tools can be used to learn--or that they're already learning without even knowing it. Kind of like hiding the vegetables in the spaghetti sauce as I used to do with my girls.
