Back in 2009, the head of BBC Academy, Nick Shackleton-Jones, urged employers to re- position their L&D strategy towards the collection and transfer of knowledge via electronic social networks; or otherwise, they would face obsolescence (People Management, 2009). In your view, was he right? Why? Why not?
What will be an ideal response?
? Yes, he was right. Social networks have managed to intrude on every aspect of
life; thus, L&D is not an exemption.
? While in the past books and the trainer’s expertise were the usual sources of
knowledge; nowadays there is a wide spectrum of sources of knowledge
available, from YouTube videos to blogs and online learning communities, such
as Moodle.
? Synchronous and asynchronous technology. The first necessitates the users to be
online simultaneously, while the latter does not.
