I've just come back from DevLearn 2010, the biggest e-learning conference in the United States. The conference was packed with many interesting people and ideas.
There was a lot of talk about social learning. I've become increasingly convinced over the last several years that social media can be an important tool for learning in health sciences professional education.
I have several new books to read including the "Working Smarter Fieldbook" by the folks at the Internet Time Alliance. The book is filled with good information that will take some time to digest. I'm also getting ready to read Tony Bingham and Marcia Conner's book, "New Social Learning".
Look forward to hearing your thoughts on The New Social Learning. I agree social media can be a important tool for learning in health sciences and all types of education.
