Denham Grey about the importance of dialogue with your peers to reinforce learning

the principles of personal learning for the new age:

Public Sticky notes

My thoughts around learning have been profoundly altered by reading Wenger, Brown & Duguid and von Krogh and focus on collective workplace practices. Have come to appreciate the role, value and importance of social learning, situated learning, learning in community and culture. That more is learned on the playing fields and in discourse with peers than from the sage on the stage. Even in very structured training situations, it is the break time conversation, the secondhand explanation from a colleague that situates the new concept, validates its importance and sanctions its legitimacy.

The key to learning is not the medium nor the message, it is the quality of the dialog with your peers that really matters
