I wasn’t too surprised by the initial questions — people want to combine things like Twitter NOW with their LMS. We quickly got past it (hint: use cmi.comments_from_learner or cmi.suspend_data to store whatever it is you want from these feeds). But that opened up the bigger and more important question: why? The audience couldn’t articulate what social learning looks like; and imho if it looks like Twitter (as just one example) how would anyone want to track it — what part do track? Let alone the “why?” My suspicion is that even though people may not be aware of what social learning looks like, they may have an easier time selling it if it can be back-doored into an LMS…
