Information (digital)…

 Facebook – over 200 million visitors a month
 Myspace – over 120 million visitors a month
 Youtube – 100 million visitors a month
 Every minute – ten hours of video is posted
 Last quarter -Fastest grown demographic on
 Facebook 35 – 45 year of age
Experimentation…

 Social engagement…
 Student are having a go… Facebook…
Serious experimentation…

    New social patterns are emerging…

        Flashmobs

What is it all about?

 Knowledge is growing exponentially.
 In many fields the life of knowledge is now measured
  in months and years.
 The “half-life of knowledge” is the time span from
  when knowledge is gained to when it becomes
  obsolete.
 Our old ways of learning are too slow!
 New ways of organizing are upon us now.
Example: Drupal

 Taking this class…
 Drupal is…
     Is a free and open source modular framework and Content
 
     Management System (CMS) written in the programming language
     PHP.
     It is used as a quot;back endquot; system for many different types of Web
 
     sites, ranging from small personal blogs to large corporate and
     political sites
 The instructor says…
     „Yes, Drupal should be around for at least a few more years.‟
 
         (next framework is python)
     
     I was thinking – it will take me at least 6-months to learn to use it at
 
     a fundamental level
     Why am I taking this three-week long class?
 
 What is Edgility…
     Edgility is a principle that I have chosen to guide me as I rethink
 
     learning, organizations, and processes in a new era of information
     abundance.

     Edgility is having the capability to leverage the power of networks
 
     (Edge Power) to rapidly learn and innovate in order to compete
     globally for work

     Drupal example: if you are going to compete - you have to use an
 
     open source learning community.

     http://www.edgility.net
 
Leadership

 How does this relate to leadership?
   1) If you want to stay current with leadership ideas – must rely
    on others.
   2) If you are going to lead others in the future you must use
    collaborative technology.

  Leaders must work to increase their Edgility. This means
    experimenting with use of Edgility tools (such as those
    introduced in this class) – and learning how to engage others
    through their use.
The beginning of a solution…

 PLC / E Defined:
   quot;A Personal Learning Environment (PLE) is a collection of
    free, distributed, web-based tools, usually centered around a
    blog, linked together and aggregating content using RSS feeds
    and simple HTML scripts.quot;




                                          Sean Fitzgerald http://tinyurl.com/25g7zn
The beginning of a solution…

 PLC / E Defined:
   quot;PLE are very personal both in the sense of being independent
    of the university or employer and in the sense of being hand-
    crafted. Even with a more ideal integrative application, PLE
    will still be highly customized to the needs and preferences of
    the learner.quot;




                                           Ray Sims- http://tinyurl.com/26jn5g
The beginning of a solution…

 PLC / E Defined:
   “A definition for the term Personal Learning
    Environment (PLE), remains elusive. Conception about
    what should constitute a PLE depends on the perspective of
    the creator”
   quot;a Personal Learning Environment is a facility for an
    individual to access, aggregate, configure and manipulate
    digital artifacts of their ongoing learning experiences.quot;




                                         Ron Lubensky_ http://tinyurl.com/2khh6b
Questions:

 How many have developed a Personal Learning
  Community?
 Would someone like to describe their PLE / C?

Quick blueprint…

 One blueprint on how to find conversation on any
  topic.
 People new to social media are often frustrated when
  they are told to quot;join the conversation“
     - because they aren't sure where to find the conversation.
 

 Popularity isn't a perfect judge of quality by any
 means, but it's a place to start
