FIVE QUESTIONS...For Larry Prusack
Reading this interview with Larry Prusack was one of those moment when I really had to pause and think for a moment. Prusack's is questioning many of thing I've been interested in recent times (online learning) and at the same time a lot of what he says ring true for me eg most training is a waste of time, dialogue and human connections are the most important things.
These sort of ideas are linked to the current interested in Personal Learning Environments.
Maybe we focus to much on the tools and methods of learning, constantly seeking what seem new and shiny. Maybe I focus to much on what is new and shiny. Maybe what is important is a someone desire to learning/change and then that learner having the supports and information to be able to make those changes happen.
