Conference LiveStream: designing learner-centered social learning spaces
This document discusses using an educational intervention at AU to teach students how to create and curate information. It proposes using an online platform called Landing to facilitate social and situated learning. Landing allows for serendipitous and intentional learning outside formal course structures. The intervention would provide opportunities for peer-to-peer and student-professional connections through shared artifacts and networking. A leadership model is needed to promote this initiative that is emergent, dynamic, self-organizing, and collaborative. Complexity leadership theory suggests leadership can emerge from all participants. This intervention could increase social capital among students and within the larger community by facilitating information sharing and network formation.
