    Exploring the layers of social learning by Julian Stodd We used to live in two worlds: the workplace, which was a formal and restricted environment, typified by moderated messages and codified behaviours that fitted within defined parameters of 'acceptable', and then the social world, which was unrestricted and expressive, ranging from conversations in the pub to heated debates about politics, religion and which cocktail to order next. These worlds were separate, colliding only at moments of misjudged intra-office relationships and the alcohol-fuelled miscommunication of the office Christmas party. But no more. The world has changed under us and there is no formal and social divide. We inhabit a grey space of 'social', where people answer office emails from the bath and use Facebook in meetings. That photograph of the holiday in Ibiza will haunt you in your next job interview and the post about how much you hate your boss has just gone global thanks to a misjudged retweet. But what does social mean for learning? How can we tune into the levels of engagement that we see, how can we enrich for formal learning experience? How can we add a meaningful social layer around our work?

  • The analysis phase
  • outlining a story
  • Identifying the conflict: What’s the problem that needs to be solved to get a desired performance? Learning about the characters: Who are the learners? Who do they interact with in their day-to-day lives? Considering the setting: What’s the learners’ environment like? Deciding on the form of a story: Should it be flash fiction? A longer story? What multimedia elements should it include? Will these elements support the story or are they distracting fluff?

  • like the plot of a story,
  • A set-up or introduction: What’s the hook? Why is instruction/training important? In our fast-paced work environments, learners need to be engaged quickly and to relate the instructional story to their own lives.
  • Learning modules need to be scaffolded to create more and more learner competence and independence.
  • Assessment activities should allow for the right amount of challenge to allow learners to engage in critical thinking skills, but the climax needs to flow naturally from what’s gone before.
  • instructional designer should be constantly evaluating his or her objectives/design/instructional methods and course-correcting along the way to the development and implementation phases.
  • asks whether all the content moves the plot forward
  • Anything that doesn’t support the plot should be eliminated. So too in instructional design, the designer should eliminate information that’s merely nice-to-know and should keep only need-to-know information.
  • just as stories can benefit from the judicious use of narration, designers should consider what knowledge and skills learners need to be able to solve a problem. What are the facts, concepts, and principles needed to support learners as they carry out real-world problems? What processes do learners need to be aware of to consider how they fit into the big picture of their work environment? Throwing learners into the middle of the action without any support or context can leave them feeling frustrated.
  • passing the instructional story out to reviewers allows designers to escape “designer blindness” and to see the story from the eyes of the audience.
  • Stories also can be great ways of presenting instruction to learners:
  • Human beings are natural storytellers We pay attention to stories: we want to know how a story ends We can readily attach our own meanings to stories Stories are generally easier to remember than a long list of bullet points
  • Learners can be involved in a story in a virtual environment or as part of a scenario or case study.
  • While multimedia can enhance a story, all the CGI in the world won’t resurrect a plot that’s a stinker.
  • Having a learner articulate the concepts and principles identified by a story can help learners build their own mental models of what’s important. Similarly, having learners tell their own stories can allow them to synthesize concepts and principles and apply them. Learners can use technology to enhance their stories but it’s not a requirement for

      for learning. Whether you use storytelling as a metaphor in your instructional design or actually create stories as part of the learning solutions you provide, remember that the story should challenge, stimulate thinking, create emotional resonance, and live on in the minds of its "readers."
