Learning2gether about Everything

We are in a paradigm shift where ongoing learning is moving from the scarcity of what many of us could once only find through degree programs and flying off to international conferences, to the over-abundance of what is available online through MOOCs and webinars and countless online events and communities. This abundance caters to all learning styles, the only seeming limitation being what we can steer our way and then filter so that we can make some sense of the most useful droplets of knowledge streaming from the fire hose.  What is abundantly possible is limited only by scarcities in time, energy, and attention.

Learning2gether http://learning2gether.net tries to keep a finger on the pulse of some of this activity. In so doing we connect with other networks and communities of networks, including the ones putting on this online event. This presentation will connect with others in these networks and discuss some of the balances of abundance and scarcity that enhance and limit the opportunities we are now finding online.

The above session followed one by Nellie Deutsch
