Web 2.0 technology brings many new pathways for learning, especially for collaboration. Yet, for all its promise, organizations have been slow to adopt social learning. This week, two highly-experienced e-Learning designers and developers bring you a review of the foundations of what we are beginning to call "Learning 2.0," and best practices for overcoming obstacles to implementation.

The pedagogy planning tool is being developed in collaboration with educational practitioners who define their requirements for an online tool to support their current learning design practice. It focuses on the critical aspects of learning designs, and makes the pedagogical design explicit, capturing it for testing, redesign, reuse and adaptation by the originator, or by others. In this way the planning tool helps practitioners to be 'reflective' and become part of the educational community that engages in collaborative exploration of new forms of learning design, enabling them to engaged in their own discovery of how best to use technology-enhanced learning.
