Networked Learning

Networked Learning is using other people and Internet resources to help you learn.

We recognise that people learn from people. They learn by communicating with experts. They learn by talking to people who do similar things, or have approached the same problem in different ways. This communication is not only listening. Articulating a problem can help people to structure their thoughts and bouncing ideas and options off peers or facilitators can help people to arrive at the best outcome.

Internet Forums

Increasingly, teams and working communities are scattered between different offices, companies and different countries and time-zones. Using email to coordinate these teams and team tasks is problematic. To work effectively a more robust and controlled environment is needed.

The Centre for Networked Learning has a range of “free to use” forums to suit almost any purpose, and a range of services designed to make Internet Forums work.
