  1. Beyond Workplace Learning Stephen Downes April 5, 2011

  2. Many organizations aren’t thinking about the ‘networked individual’ – the networking choices and patterns of individual Internet users. They’re still focused on their own organizational information systems and traditional institutional networks. - William H. Dutton http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1767870

Three types of CNO... • Sharing • The ability to create linked documents, data, and objects within a distributed network • Contributing • The ability to employ social networking applications of the Web to facilitate group communication • Co-creating • The ability for individuals to collaborate through networks that facilitate cooperative group work toward shared goals (Dutton, p. 12)
