Week Four Discussion

Recap and Topics of Interest

• Discussion: Plus / Delta Items from Previous Week
  • Debi - "I found that in our collaborative environment, it was much easier to get busy and not participate as much as I would have when forced to face my facilitator or team members in an actual conference call or live meeting encounter. It became apparent that deadlines would need to be set and enforced in a corporate collaborative environment to ensure things kept progressing."
  • Greg - "I am not sold on the value of a plus / delta post. I prefer a more free form comment on the learning of the week. The important element of the post from a learning perspective is learner reflection. I think general comments on the week allows this reflection to be more meaningful, at least to me it is."

• Jennifer - "I am struggling to understand the bigger picture of what we're doing and how it can make a difference to the learning environment."
• Greg - "I do not think the educational class model works well for this target audience – working professionals taking an enrichment class."
• Greg - "adult learners are motivated by applicability of the content to their jobs / lives. Context is king. When learners cease to see the context, they often cease to see the value and stop."
  • Great for Week 6!
