Social learning isn’t a replacement for
training and employee development.
But it can accomplish what traditional
approaches often cannot. For
instance, this new technology-
enabled approach can supplement
instruction with collaboration and co-
creation and, in so doing, blur the
boundary between the instructor and
the instructed and enhance the
experience of all.
