FREE Web 2.0 Learning Event
by Michelle Lentz
 
Web 2.0 for Learning Professionals is a free online event offered by Tony Karrer's Work Literacy group (this includes Michele Martin and Harold Jarche) in combination with the eLearning Guild.
 
According to Tony's blog, this event is a
... 6-week, highly active, social learning event will introduce you to new methods and tools. It will be moderated by Michele Martin and Harold Jarche, with help from Tony Karrer. This is your opportunity to ramp up your understanding of Learning 2.0 technologies prior to DevLearn 2008 so that you can participate better either in-person or as an outside spectator, and to interact and learn with people who are passionate about learning.
Tony has a schedule of topics on his blog and you can pop in and out whenever you please. It's elearning at its finest, with activities completed at your own pace. The group is using Ning to facilitate the learning. I'm a big fan of Ning (as I wrote about here) and I use it for several sites, including a personal site, a charity site, and another non-profit site I currently have in progress.
 
You certainly don't have to be going to DevLearn to participate, so I highly recommend signing up and just popping in occasionally to see what's happening, or ideally, participating the whole time. While the event officially starts Sept 29, I'm sure you could easily pop by anytime in the 6 week period.
