| DARETOSHARE MARCH 1, 2010 Verifying Virtual Value Please let me and my blog readers know if you have successfully measured the value of networked learning or whether you are planning to try and measure the value. “Learning via social networks and other Web 2.0 tools is anything but formal. Yet, when it comes to measuring its value, a structured approach should still apply. How can learning leaders assess whether the benefits live up to the hype?&# – CLO Magazine March 2010 Issue. co-wrote an article with Craig Mindrum about verifying the virtual value of networked learning. . | DARETOSHARE NOVEMBER 13, 2009 Finding In-House Experts Isn’t Easy Some key conclusions from the research: Activities and interactions that occur in blogs, wikis and social networks naturally provide the cues that are missing from current expert locator systems. search engine that mines internal blogs, for example, where workers post updates and field queries about their work, will help searchers judge for themselves who is an expert in a given field. like this study because it demonstrates the hidden value of blogs and wikis.

I am not completely helpless. | DARETOSHARE APRIL 9, 2009 Measuring Networked (or Social) Learning Content usage patterns - preferred ways to consume various content topics, busiest days and times for viewing content, amount of time spent viewing content and participating in discussion threads and blogs, and preferred way to “find&# content. I am often asked by business leaders to describe what we intend to measure in order to understand, manage, and improve the networked (or social) learning eco-system. We do not want to take a traditional ‘Learning Management System&# appraoch and treat networked learning as formal training. | DARETOSHARE JANUARY 3, 2010 Do We Need Sweeter Carrots and Sharper Sticks? Why would content experts want to store their expertise on the “system” in the form of a podcast, knowledge document, blog, or discussion thread? Learning or professional communities are “healthy” and beneficial to the organization when its members are intrinsically motivated to participate and contribute. Members of a learning community must have a desire to network, collaborate, and share information or the community will not thrive and will not drive business value. What will intrinsically motivate community members? Which types of rewards are cost-effective? Dan Pink. | | | | | | | |

DARETOSHARE | WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5, 2009 Tweets Are Like Food
I tend to write very “serious&# blog posts – all business for me!
