December Big Question - What did you learn about learning?

We've somewhat lost our fearless Blogmeister, Dave Lee, so we've not been doing the Big Questions the past few months. I'll be doing the moderating. But, we are starting again ...

The Big Question for December is:

What did you learn about learning in 2007?


To help you get started, you might want to look back at some discussions going on last year at this time with a similar kind of question:
I personally am going to be looking back at some of my blog posts and look for those "aha moments." There were quite a few, but it's always good to go back and look.

January's Topic:

Predictions for learning in 2008

How to Respond:

We are going old-school on this, no forms.

Please post on your blog or put thoughts in a comment.

If you post on a blog, please include a link to this post. Ideally, you would also include the Big Question logo. After you post on your blog, leave a comment on this post with a link to your blog post. Periodically during the month, I will add you to the list below.

By the way, if you can make it as easy as copy and paste for me, that would be great. Otherwise, the links may not look great, but everyone can still get there.

Good stuff already coming in!

François is asking this same question to his readers and posts his own response at the bottom of the post. I like his point that the more you support learners, the more you slow them down. I look forward to what his other readers may add ...

I am finally starting to catch up with my reading and blogging.

My cursory, simplistic response

Stuart Kruse said...

I've learnt that talking the talk happens a lot sooner than walking the walk. Lots of great fresh ideas in the ID world, lots of them sparked by the web 2.0 thang, and then absolutely no signs of change in the projects offered by paying customers.

The pace of change in the UK e-learning industry is very, very, very slooooooooooow.

I look forward to doing my first commercial Informal Learning project in about 2020. On the plus side, already doing some amazing Games-based Simulation stuff, but only for one customer. I look forward to finding another customer willing to invest in this stuff in the next year....maybe...

Oh, I've also learnt that having a mid-life crisis comes much earlier these days...I think i'm busy enjoying mine at the grand old age of 35..hmmmmmmm

Maybe I'll go back to the usability world.

Karl wins so far for making my life easy. A simple cut and paste. Thanks!

Mark's post made me think of a recent joke.

How many pessimists does it take to change a light bulb?






Ah, never mind, you'll never get it.
