Our social networks are not what they used to be. Learning is not what it used to be. The possibility and power of the network is truly being realised thanks to the Internet. Its resultant effect on learning is change at a pace that many struggle to keep up with. We are able to connect with one another on a scale that has never occurred before in the history of mankind. Tonight we will touch on aspects of these developments by exploring: -how we can get to know each other online -how we can keep up with the times -the social web -blogging -what the social web may mean for you and your practice
