White paper

Blogs and e-learning

 

by Donald Clark, Epic

People have always felt the need to express themselves and cave paintings are arguably the earliest blogs. We now have tens of millions of blogs on what is the biggest, most exciting, expanding cave we have ever seen – the web.

Blogs are unashamedly honest and personal. It is this that makes them so readable but of what relevance are blogs to learning? In this new White Paper, Donald Clark (also a blogger at http://donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.com/), looks at the paradigm shift towards informal learning, blogs in business and blogs in learning (both formal and informal). Although blogs can be part of the formal learning landscape, they largely exist in the now massive world of informal learning, along with wikis, podcasting, feeds and other Web 2.0 and Learning 2.0 phenomena.
