What Social Software Should I Use For ELearning?
There are seemingly numerous applications for elearning and trying to craft an elearning system can be confusing. Learning Conversations has a great guide for determining what applications to use. I especially like the fact that the guide is aimed toward the learner and not driven by the technology.
But, I believe it only looks like a large number of applications. Many of the applications are just variations of wikis, blogs, twitter, and FaceBook-type applications. Where are the truly new applications that enhance the learning experience? By focusing on the needs of the learners, I am sure that the new applications will arrive.
