Deep thoughts: Web 2.0
As we near the end of January’s focus on web 2.0, for your listening pleasure, here’s an audio podcast of a roundtable discussion I recently had with two fellow BLPers, Lisa and Kristen.
Web 2.0 Roundtable
In it, we discuss:
- Does web 2.0 allow for more actual learning, or is it just another way to communicate?
- Why should learning professionals be excited about new web 2.0 technologies?
- What are the limitations? What are some of the ways that technologies have been implemented successfully?
- How is BLP using web 2.0 to improve our own learning?
I hope you enjoy our conversation. One of the things I really enjoy about our team is that we don’t always agree and we approach new technologies with varying levels of skepticism - which I think helps us make better decisions!
One of the topics we address in the podcast is the impact of “legal” on successful implementation. To get an idea of how your organization’s management, marketing and PR folks think about that risk, check out this presentation recently given by Ice Miller at the Hoosier Public Relations Society of America. I believe that there will be a continued tension between an organization’s need to protect itself and the benefits of more open and shared knowledge.
I hope you enjoy our conversation. Post your questions or comments about our discussion here!
