The Microlearning2008 Conference
MICROLEARNING2008
… is about the dramatic impact of digital microcontent on the way we are living and working.
→ Workers and learners become “digital beings” who will have to adapt to swimming in a sea of “micro-information”.
→ The patterns of attention of media users are undergoing fundamental changes.
→ Enterprises & educational institutions will have to reorganize information, communication, and learning for a new kind of “micro-information ecology”.
It’s not just about “Web 2.0” and “Mobile Web”. It’s more of a climate change. Our digital environment is increasingly being built on (very) small pieces of information that are loosely joined and constantly restructured. We not only need to find new ways of learning. We need to build new capacities for tomorrow’s knowledge and information workers.
For the 4th time, MICROLEARNING2008 presents a platform for international experts and practitioners from very diverse fields to discuss the latest developments in digital technologies and practices stimulated by microcontent.
