Informal Learning - CLO: "The pace of change itself is accelerating. In the past, workers learned how to do something. In the future, they will need to learn what changed last night. In the past, execution required knowledge and skill. Future execution will require ingenuity, alacrity and innovation."
I see learning slightly different than Jay does; his conception of learning is based on the ecological principle of adaptation - that our learning is a process of adjustment to change...whereas I see learning as creating the change itself, not only adjusting (the adaptation metaphor is a bit too passive for my liking). Setting the differences aside, Jay has done some hard thinking on the changing nature of learning...and has concluded that much of our future will require a greater emphasis on, and harnessing of, the constant learning opportunities that exist in our daily lives (outside of courses). I'm looking forward to his soon to be published book on the subject...
