What is Social Learning

Interactivity is a hot topic in business, education and learning platforms today. It is team spirit and interactivity that eventually creates quality practices in online education. You want your corporate employees to engage and complete their e-learning courses. The trick is to make the courses as attractive as possible so that no one gets bored. One way you can make this happen is by implementing a Social Learning Platform. But…what is social learning?

Social learning involves learning through observation of other people’s attitudes, views, behaviors and outcomes of those behaviors. The learner then imitates those behaviors or attitudes and then models them. What your employees observe through social media or any interactive platform is then later used as a guide to build their ideas about how to acquire new behaviors.

Core components of Social
Learning in Education and Corporate Training

This form of learning has certain core components that are essential to it.
First, social learning has to involve some form of introduction of the students or trainees to the social environment. Then they will likely develop interest in learning from that particular environment.

This brings us to the next crucial aspect or component: Motivation. Out of interest to know something new, people will behave in a certain way that may involve adopting what they have observed. Their response in whichever direction at this point provides the final important component: feedback.

It would be a bit lazy not to have at least an idea in the correct direction here. In this era of technology dominance, where technology rules and controls every aspect of our lives, social platform towers above other aspects of life. We have become a social people, and a learning platform that is tied to it; that is definitely a first-class ticket to the brighter side With the social network, your employees’ learning process is not restricted to any time or place. Learning continues throughout, as long as there is access to these networks. Now this must sound good, right? Employees becoming better every hour they encounter the web?

There is fun in social learning. If you have been through a classroom situation, then you definitely have tasted the fatigue that comes with boring lectures or lessons. It is a common thing to doze off in such classes. But the social one is entertaining while it educates, so all parts of the process can effectively sink in almost always naturally. Adoption is easier with social learning. Your staff do not have to go to a lab to try out the skills learned. Take Facebook, Twitter for instance, if it is about networking skills, they actually learn the skills through practicing right there, and applying the same almost spontaneously.
