I've been presenting to a lot of groups recently where many of those in the audience were not social media tools users. Having talked about the importance of social media tools for learning and that, in my opinion, all learning professionals needed to be social-media-savvy in order to advise on their use within learning and performance support, I have been constantly asked by participants where they could go for a quick, easy-to-use and structured introduction to social media and its use in learning. I have therefore decided to revive my old Guide to Social Learning, which I had disaggregated around my website, and re-launch it in a new format: Social Media in Learning: Handbook and Toolkit to provide the kind of introductory resource that social media beginners were asking for.
I continue to run my Social Media in Learning Workshops, of which the 6 week Social Learning in Your Organisation online workshop is proving to be quite popular. I have also renamed my community/social networking platform c4lpt.net as Social Media in Learning: Community to bring it inline with all these other resources
I have also set up a new blog, called, funnily enough, Social Media In Learning, where I am now posting about social media tools, social learning and building a social media strategy. This will probably be of more interest to more social media savvy people who want to build on their knowledge. The blog's feed is sent to my Twitter feed @c4lpt, so if you are following me there, you can always keep up with new postings. Here are some recent postings, in case you missed them:
