The online campus community in a social network world
9-10:15 Presentation
Learning in the Web 2.0 world
Kathleen Gilroy
CEO, The Otter Group
How are new technologies – weblogs, podcasting, wikis, and social networking – changing models for learning? What are the economics of the new learning models enabled by web 2.0 technologies? How can libraries and higher ed deliver learning at less cost and to greater numbers of people?
What is the role of the library/higher educational institution in this new world of learning?
How can these new models be used for certification, continuing education, communities of practice, and knowledge management?
This talk will answer these questions through specific case studies of libraries and higher ed and businesses that have adopted these new learning models.
