    Some people fear social media. Others loathe it. Both are natural human reactions, and to introduce social learning into organisations, argues Mark Oehlert, requires a human solution to this resistance, rather than the technological solutions so often celebrated.

     

    In this session, Mark draws both on his work at the Defense Acquisition University and on case studies from elsewhere to illustrate how human solutions are

    Nowadays it's common to see terms tangled up: social media, social learning, collaboration, communities, social business, social strategies. Let's take a few moments to talk about terms and look at real ways organizations can measure the worth of social interactions, particularly as they pertain to learning.

    • Social learning: it's not new

Making personalized, collaborative learning a reality 
Joel Hellermark, CEO & Founder, Sana Labs 
 
Collaboration and personalisation are two trends that dominate contemporary thinking about workplace learning. 
 
Collaborative learning involves synchronous, interactive live sessions with groups of learners, and is powered by social dynamics and community. 
 
Personalization focuses on self-paced instruction that responds to the unique needs of every learner, and is powered and scaled by AI. 
 
Is it possible to combine these two? According to Joel it is. In this session, he will explore what it means to combine these two approaches in entirely new ways—using social dynamics to increase engagement while responding to each learner’s needs to improve learning outcomes. Join us to explore the exciting possibilities of personalized, collaborative learning.
