  • Instruction eLearning 2.0 and Quality

    QUALITY comes into play with these collaborative enterprise 2.0 technologies? Or does anyone even care about that anymore ...

It's not at all the reality that goes along with most eLearning 2.0 ...

  • KM 2.0, Enterprise 2.0 & eLearning 2.0 Worlds Getting Closer

    For a while, I've been trying to figure out how eLearning 2.0 relates to KM 2.0 and Enterprise 2.0 - certainly there is a LOT of cross-over between what's being discussed. Well funny enough, it turns out that:DevLearn 2007 & KM World 2007 are both in San Jose, Nov. 6-8. Even both in the downtown area.Maybe we can recruit some of the KM bloggers who are attending to come join us for Beer and Bloggers on Nov. 7. Some of the folks I see listed are people I read all the time: Dave SnowdenDave Pollard, David Gurteen, (apparently you have to be named David to work in KM), Ross Dawson ...

  • How Wikipedia Works and Wikis in the Enterprise - HBS

    Great article - How Wikipedia Works (or Doesn't) that looks at Andrew McAfee's experiences around the "Enterprise 2.0" article and Wikipedia's Articles for Deletion process. It's an interesting discussion of the net impact of Wikipedia's process - which can be frustrating, especially to casual users. At the same time, I've also had some very good experiences such as when my 10-year old son updated Wikipedia.At the bottom of the article, the author interviews Andrew about the use of Wikis in the enterprise. A couple of things jumped out at me:Sean Silverthorne: Is Wikipedia a good ...
