Learning=Conversation

No-one in my aggregator writes succinct posts like John Pederson. I don’t understand all of his cryptic thoughts but some of his points are pure gold. As I gear up for a few presentations and workshops at our local CEGSA conference and plan for an exciting event in Melbourne later in August, this gem is worth keeping in the back of my brain.

Sessions are for presenters. Learning happens in the conversation.

That mold of experts at the front delivering to the huddled masses has got to be broken. Or maybe we’re only closet constructivists who like the world as it was… neccpederson.jpg

    I like how the women (Vicki and Julie) are working hard while the clowns (David and I) are screwing around.

    Having sat next to John while he is supposed to be “learning” has revealed that he’s got gears that are always turning – His “Bloggers in a bag” photos are great, too.
