What Went Right
Learning Guides Opportunity for fun & break from routine Bringing people together “Blog of the Week” helped encourage
participation Walked the talk (used 2.0 tools to develop and
deliver program content) “Opt out” (where applied) Library work still got done

Supervisor Support
Do supervisors support future training on the same delivery model as the Learning 2.0 program?
![Page 37: Learning 20 Post Mortem](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555a7c4cd8b42abb628b481d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Survey Says…
Skills/tools employees want to see in a future program

38
Recommendations: #1
Implement Learning 2.1-- a program for continued learning of new technologiesA new activity/tool each month
Posted to a new central blog, similar to Learning 2.0
Rotate responsibility for posting (between Mike/Martha/Abigail/others?)
Highlight what other libraries are doing
Participation optional
![Page 39: Learning 20 Post Mortem](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555a7c4cd8b42abb628b481d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
Recommendations: #2
Centralize system-wide 2.0 tools Avoid duplication of initiatives
List MCL blogs, wikis, etc., in one place (like Hennepin’s extranet)
Consolidate & standardize tools (e.g. Roller is shared, “official” blogging platform)
Especially need standardized wiki platform
Provide list of people to be contacted for info on specific 2.0 tools.
![Page 40: Learning 20 Post Mortem](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062513/555a7c4cd8b42abb628b481d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
Recommendations: #3
Implications for future e-learning programs2.0 tools are here to stay; usage will
continue to growStaff will require training as tools &
technologies are developed and gain widespread use and acceptance
Self-paced online e-learning a valuable and necessary, but not a sufficient means of delivering training for most employees

Recommendations: #4
