A closer look at using a social media platform ...

The last 2 weekends I have included a couple of short presentations that I have been producing to help organisations (business and education) understand the concept of social learning and how a social media/learning platform could help them.  Part 1 was called The future of E-Learning is Social Learning, and Part 2 was Using Elgg as a Social Learning Platform.

Since that time I have been asked by a number of people to provide a closer look at how a social media platform can help with providing, in particular, formal learnng but also how it can be used more widely for informal learning and collaboration.  So, this week, before I present Part 3 of the series, I am going to include two additional but very similar presentations, that are aimed at two different target audiences: one Further and Higher Education and the second business, corporates and non-academic organisations.
