The Power and Practice of Digital Curation

Ready, Set, Curate book coverDigital curation is emerging as a sound strategy in learning experience design to replace or enhance courses. It’s also a strategy for building community and a way to support informal learning and a backchannel. In this episode, I speak with Allison Anderson and Ben Betts, co-authors and editors of Ready, Set, Curate: 8 Learning Experts Tell You How.

Allison is a Chief Learning Strategist at Learning EcoStrategies. She has more than 20 years of experience as a learning leader in both higher education and the private sector. Ben leads the team at Learning Pool, specialists in learning and performance technology. Ben is a thought-leader in Learning Technology with more than 15 years of experience and a doctorate where he studied the impact of gamification on adult social learning.

WE DISCUSS:

  • Defining digital curation
  • Difference between aggregation and curation
  • Why curation is a viable solution for workplace learning
  • Examples of how digital curation can be used: Imagination, Instruction, Integration and Implementation
  • How curation is supported by instructional science
  • Curation and community—the social aspect of curation
  • Curation strategies for learning experience design
  • Effective curation process
  • Determining valid sources to curate
  • Curation copyright and licensing issues
  • Common mistakes new curators make
  • Curation tools
