interesting discussion in #jaycross session about multitasking we were doing (twitter backchannel, etc); takes practice, but worth learning
-
-
jaycross:
I mentioned to Mark that working in Twitter is like informal learning: "Uncertainty engages the mind." So bleeding edge flaky. #jaycross

Thanks for a great meeting on informal learning. Great discussions. I just need to optimize my windows better for multitasking #jaycross
-
sarspri:
dang - tweetchat seems to have gone down right as the #jaycross informal learning group was moving into twitter mode; lost my last 2 tweets
-
-
RioPDX:
For some of us multitasking is just natural, or maybe I just have some sort of disorder. #jaycross
-
SkillForce:
It was hard but knowing we captured everything for later reassures my learner appetite
#jaycross

marksylvester:
I wonder how many people were able to multitask (tweetchat, audio, webinar) and not be distracted and end up doing email too #jaycross
-
jaycross:
Isn't it amazing how Twitter has become mainstream? What a steep adoption curve. I think we're heading into a real-time world.

Great webinar with Jay Cross. Enjoyed the tweetchat.com conversations #Jaycross

jaycross:
Well, life is multidimensional. Learning should be multidimensional, too.
#jaycross

marksylvester:
Thanks for the props on the Prize Wheel - we developed that for #ted a few years ago. Showed it to Jay and he went wild! #jaycross

RT @joshrace tweetchat and webinar = cool way of 'chat' connecting with others during the webinar & automatically broadcasting. #jaycross

@Erick1970 #jaycross THe phrase "informal learning" is as useful as coining a phrase "informal breathing". We breathe, We learn.

karynromeis:
But the world isn't flat. C'mon guys. Think Cape Town squatter camp with no electricity! #jaycross

PosRole:
OH.. I meant Learning Irregular meeting... can we attend virtually? #jaycross

rbacal:
@Erick1970 #jaycross Informal learning as a term is a shuck, BS, pointless.If you are alive, you learn.So, why do we need another BS phrase
-

dwilkinsnh:
We should all follow each other too. Also a Twitter group you can join called @slqotd where these topics are discussed daily. #jaycross

SureSpeak:
@carmean If someone is learning informally, and their confidence goes up, metrics typically will but you can't measure confidence. #jaycross

PosRole:
can individuals attend the upcoming
TOGETHER LEARN meeting virtually... #jaycross

Couldn't connect to Go2Webinar just listening on phone
-- will slides be available later? #jaycross

hopski80:
I agree it's both performance and confidence depending on what the situation is
#jaycross
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
SureSpeak:
@carmean I disagree. Not all metrics that impact performance are measurable. For instance, increased confidence. #jaycross
-
dwilkinsnh:
Measurement is hard ROI from efficiency, time-to-competence, improved sales, reduced turnover, etc. SocMed is full of real data #jaycross

Erick1970:
informal learning happens all around us all the time - "the proof of the pudding is not passing a test, it's doing stuff." #jaycross
-
-
-
headmaverick:
Don't create new learning metrics. Use the existing biz measures to gauge success. #jaycross
-
-
-
-
RioPDX:
"Tracking" ussually means "level 1" evaluation, but I believe that informal learning can be best measured at much higher levels. #jaycross
-
-
-
carmean:
Hate to confuse informal with active, engaged, social learning. THAT is just good ID. #jaycross
-
HowardW:
That is key--we're looking at online community metrics--how to show success? #jaycross
-
-
-
headmaverick:
I'm concerned that informal learning is being portrayed as a "Hope they learn" approach. Intel can't hope people learn. #jaycross
-
SureSpeak:
Put informal learning in a landscape that's natural--forcing someone to learn simply won't work. #jaycross
-
-
-
-
shortboy:
I think the line between formal and informal learning is blurred... eg snack learning can be informal chunks of formal learning #jaycross
-
-
-
SureSpeak:
As Jay said b4, cust serv a great example. Informal allows practice w/out risking losing a customer. #jaycross

HowardW:
American actors say they rarely discover the depth of their character until they begin rehearsal--just reading a script is 2d, #jaycross
-
headmaverick:
When I was a factory manager, the biggest improvements and leaps in performance came about from informal learning and sharing.

karynromeis:
It doesn't ahve to be either or, it can be both and. We're not talking about throwing out the baby and the bathwater, here #jaycross
-
skoodatceo:
exactly! informal is more about "application". It seems to happen in the "doing" space. #jaycross
-

-
magdaZINE:
If you are on a bike and don't know where to go, take a bus instead to learn lay of land. Informal vs formal training :-) #Jaycross
-
-
iljarijnen:
should informal learning be guarded somehow by a department/leader in an organisation in order for it to be succesful and how?
#jaycross
-
Erick1970:
Kind of like Montessori - provide the environment with limited formal instruction & watch the learners go. #jaycross
-
dwilkinsnh:
It may not cost much per unit, but scale is much greater. Bigger issue is that it's not a cost; it's part of the work...

SureSpeak:
It allows your message to go beyond the typical rate of absorption. Name is Kristi, BTW. #jaycross

RioPDX:
And "traditional thinking leaders" in many cases think that if it doesn't cost much it's not "valuable". #jaycross
-
-
karynromeis:
Some of us ex-instructors are really up for it, though. It's not all doom and gloom #jaycross
-
JohnLM:
Learning happens whether there is a training function or not. Orgs that promote formal learning add value to the informal methods. #jaycross
-
-
-
AllisonAnderson:
when you look at the spending though... a lot of informal learning also doesn't COST much....
#jaycross
-
-
KanyMa:
About 80% of money spent on formal learning that accounts for only about 20% of learning #jaycross
-

JohnESmith:
Re decision-makers-wonder how many of them are involved in this or any other discussions about informal learning? #jaycross #jaycross
-

rebke03:
Generational/cultural differences seem to influence the preference for informal vs formal learning experiences #jaycross
-
karynromeis:
Ooh and doesn't this picture get my goat! Why doesn't the spend go where the value is? #jaycross
-
ScottSkibell:
I believe old timers are. Have to justify head cnt and budgets. Slow to innovate and adopt. #jaycross
-
-
RioPDX:
"Threat" can apply to the more traditional thinking organization or individuals. #jaycross
-
SureSpeak:
We can multi-task...we're taking your formal presentation, and spreading informally! :) #jaycross
-
shortboy:
I think you can often formally measure an ROI on informal learning investment.. by looking at performance impact #jaycross
-
skoodatceo:
Mark's word of "backthread" is a lot like informal learning. I think it is the true main thread of cultural change. #jaycross
-
hjarche:
Lesson learnt: don't use twitter for real-time chat, it's too unstable - better select a chat app - keep twitter for async chat #jaycross
-
jonathak:
and if learning is about performance and presumably informal learning occurs in the performance space, isn't a valuable adjunct? #jaycross
-
magdaZINE:
Visuals and media = improved learning experience = faster, stickier learning = because it is affects emotions, perhaps? #vizthink #Jaycross
-
SureSpeak:
Don't think it threatens- start with formal learning, allow users to spread informally. Enable it! #jaycross
-
jonathak:
I don't see informal learning as a threat to traditional training -- both have value. #jaycross
-
-
-
sarspri:
"Looping customers into the learning experience as well" -- from #jaycross, on informal learning not only for those inside an org #jaycross
-
Erick1970:
Sounds like learnscaping is about creating an environment for enabling informal learning. #jaycross
-
-
ScottSkibell:
Does informal learning threaten traditional training dept management? More difficult to justify budgets? #jaycross
-
-
AllisonAnderson:
i like this example of Tootsie Role (tm)- looks unimportant to some but actually it's really an important bit of info. #jaycross
-
-
SkillForce:
compelling reasons to learn --- super critical element for both inform and formal
#jaycross

-
ldennison:
Bummer, reading and listening at the same time is not too hard if what you are reading ties in to what you are hearing #jaycross
-
JohnLM:
Jay's story about the Iraq blog = example of information overload. 60 tips / day X 7 days/wk = overload! #jaycross
-
-
SureSpeak:
Yeah, TweetChat not showing other tweets anymore :( DM me if you wanna talk! #jaycross
-
magdaZINE:
Tootsie Rolls VS Jolly Rancher = Iraq war strategy = Tootsie Roll more efficient wrapper = won't melt in sun #Jaycross
-
-
-
headmaverick:
Part of the "learnscape" is having a reason to learn. Do orgs embracing informal learning create compelling reasons to learn? #jaycross
-
magdaZINE:
@ JohnESmith Yes we need informal learning for the decision makers:-) #Jaycross
-
-
HowardW:
Yes, John, we're dealing with leadership that wants to control our brand new socnets #jaycross
-
HowardW:
Permission is granted when there's a culture that welcomes. Isn't that framed in the emotional intelligence context? #jaycross

jdarling44:
It seems most informal learning happens in spite of the organization rather than because of it. #jaycross
-
-
-
SkillForce:
Learning integrated into the the Biz plan --- a not separate 'to do' practice! #jaycross
-
SureSpeak:
Agreed, Jay. Creating the culture of formal learning --> informal learning is necessary. #jaycross

carmean:
If we can't describe, how do we encourage or measure success? #jaycross

headmaverick:
New Seasons Market in Portland, OR is a great case of embracing informal learning. #jaycross

Isn't there a famous story about informal learning at Xerox and the "connected coffeepots?" #jaycross

sarspri:
@shortboy I think the name #jaycross mentioned was Ellen Langer from Harvard (impact of introducing uncertainty into a task)
-
-
magdaZINE:
Instructioanl designers need to adopt what the advertisers and filmmakers already know - emotion, uncertainty, etc... #JayCross #training

carmean:
Conversation has always been part of workplace learning. Can we plan/design/use tools smartly to increase learning? #jaycross
-
-

shortboy:
"Uncertainty engages the mind" I like that. Who's study was that experiment based on? I missed that #jaycross

headmaverick:
Conversation is fast and flexible. Content can be created, edited and expanded virtually instantaneously. #jaycross

skoodatceo:
personal interaction seems to take us out of the linear stream, rational stream and put us in a cyclical, intuitive stream #jaycross

terrymandel:
Heard recently that multi-tasking inhibits learning. How well are we able to learn when tweeting/listening/looking? #jaycross
