Have you ever been to a meeting, seminar or
training session where you got more out of
the coffee break than you did out of the presentation?
You're not alone.
Human beings are designed for conversation.
That's how we learn best. Conversations contextualise
information, making it more relevant to us,
while the process of asking and answering
questions gets us problem solving in a way
just listening can never do.
Conversations are what Rhizome Live does best.
We're in the business of Connected Learning,
a new technique that goes beyond simply presenting
information as many e-learning platforms do,
and instead facilitates deeper understanding
through real-time, text-based discussion in
a moderated online setting.
This pioneering approach combines elements
of social media and e-learning, bringing together
the interaction and effectiveness of face-to-face,
small classroom-style learning, with the cost
savings and scalability of online platforms.
Connected Learning can be used in any context
where it's important for participants to gain
a deeper understanding of the subject matter,
and to be able to apply their knowledge to
real world contexts.
This could include anything from skills-based
training and sharing of best practice, to
cascading information through an organisation,
building on fact-based learning using case
studies, and even creating campaigns to build
public communities and raise awareness of
important issues.
In each of these contexts, the benefits are
always the same: engagement, understanding
and retention are all increased, with the
added bonus of creating a community where
networking can take place.
At Rhizome Live, we want to help businesses
and other organisations utilise the potential
of Connected Learning to achieve outcomes
that benefit individuals at every level. That's
why we offer a collaborative learning design
service that shapes your subject-matter knowledge
with our proven approach and structure, plus
a dedicated web-based platform to facilitate
its delivery. The result is a simple, low
effort and low risk learning package that
delivers tangible results.
Hopefully this introduction has given you
a flavour of what Rhizome Live is all about
- but we believe a conversation is always
the best way to really understand something.
So if you want to find out more about how
Connected Learning can benefit your business
or organisation, pick up the phone and give
us a call today.
