Building a Social Learning Environment – using Elgg

On Tuesday 17th November I am going to be speaking at the Learn Trends Online Conference. My presentation is entitled Building a Social Learning Environment. Here's a sneak preview of what I#39;ll be saying ...

• I am going to talk about organisational concerns of using public social media tools for their social learning initiatives
• I am going to describe a solution to address these concerns: the open source social engine, Elgg
• I am going to explain how I've implemented my own social learning environment at SoLEARN
• I am going to feature two case studies of organisations I have worked with to implement an Elgg-powered social learning environment
• I am then going to finish by mentioning some of the lessons learned along the way
• Finally, there will be plenty of time for discussion around building a social learning environment
