Curation is Key for Workplace Learning: Elliott MASIE LAB Announced
Curation & Learning LAB to be held at Elliott Masie’s Learning LAB in Saratoga Springs, NY from January 30 – February 1, 2018
Curation is needed by corporations and learners as they cope with a growing avalanche of digital content and collaboration. Elliott Masie has announced dates for the Curation & Learning LAB to be held at The MASIE Center in Saratoga Springs, NY, from January 30 – February 1, 2018. Curation for Global and Diverse Workforces, Emerging Curation Tech & Methodologies, and Curation for Transfer: Learning at the Moment of Need are just some of the hands-on explorations planned for a small group of learning colleagues in a 2 ½ day intensive exploration and lab experience at the 10,000 square foot MASIE Learning LAB in Saratoga Springs.
The Curation & Learning LAB was offered twice in 2017 and sold out both times, and Masie expects the same this winter. “Curation is about optimizing the time, focus, and efforts of both learners and employers as digital content grows. Curation is a key, strategic, and evolving opportunity and challenge for the Learning & Development field. As content, context, and collaboration for Learning expands, your employees are facing a wider Learning Panorama,” says Masie. “Curation is the process of finding, sorting, organizing, rating, ranking, recommending, validating, clearing, tracking, and personalizing learning resources. I am deeply excited to bring together a small group of learning colleagues from around the world – at all levels of experience – exploring, experimenting, assessing, and deploying a range of curation strategies. This is a LAB where we will experiment collaboratively.”
Learning colleagues from around the world will gather together in Saratoga Springs, NY to explore and experiment with a wide range of curation strategies. Elliott Masie will facilitate a LAB experience for the participants in this unique, vendor-neutral program.
Lab topics will include:
- Optimizing Content for the Workforce & Workplace
- Who Curates? Learners, Designers, or External Forces?
- Building a Recommendation System for Curation
- "Truth Testing" & "Appropriateness Screening"
- Curation for Transfer: Learning at the Moment of Need
