Last year at DevLearn I presented a session about the top 15 objections to social learning and how to overcome them. It was a GREAT session. In fact, it was where Dave Wilkins and I met and where we started doing the podcasts, webinars, Social Learning Question of the Day on Twitter and other projects.

A couple of weeks ago, Dave and I did a similar session, but as a webinar. There were over 200 people that attended. We thought that was good and we were happy with that. Then Dave took the webinar, slides and audio, and put them on SlideShare. Over these last two weeks, to our surprise, the webinar was viewed OVER 1400 MORE times! We are blown away!

Obviously, there is a need for this. So, to fulfill the need, we will be taking one objection a week and discussing it on the Social Learning NING group. It will give more people more space and time to give suggestions, voice concerns and really network ideas together.

So come join the 230 other people in this network.  Tell us your real live objection here, and we will add it in the mix.  Then put in your two cents (or more if you would like) for each objection.  Together we can get some fabulous perspectives and solutions!

I have embedded the webinar once again just to give you a feel for some of the topics we will be talking about.

Here’s to solving all our problems (or at least a few of them!).

One of the most challenging things to do when implementing Collaborative Learning is to help relax the people who have control. The control could be something as small as a report or as big as a corporation. Don’t get me wrong, there is moderation in all things and some things cannot be given up – like accountability. However, there are so many territories that are traditionally held on to. The old mentality was that “The more you control, the more powerful you are.” That is shifting to “The more your share, the more powerful you are.” (I might venture to say it has always been that.)
