Editor's note:
Hi,
Welcome to our December newsletter. This month we're talking about collaboration in learning: what is it and how to make it happen.
It's not just us talking about it either. I had a great conversation with Jane Knight, founder of the E-learning Centre. She had some interesting things to say about communities, collaboration, and free tools. As always, you can listen in.
Collaboration and communities - how do you make sure you don't throw the party that nobody shows up to? Our new briefing, "7 Ways to Market e-learning"
will help answer that. It's available for free.
If you'd like to talk about the ideas here, or other ones, I'd love to hear from you. E-mail me at newsletter@kineo.com
Season's Greetings to you and yours from all of us at Kineo!
Stephen

2. The December interview: Jane Knight of the e-Learning CentreIn the often confusing world of e-learning, Jane Knight has been a voice of sanity since she founded the e-Learning Centre in 1994. I caught up with her for a skypecast (that's skype + podcast, of course) last week. We talked about informal learning, open source tools, key trends of 2005 and where it's all headed next year.
Hear what Jane had to say here.
