This week 100+ participants from 16 Global Network schools are studying at Yale SOM for week-long courses in behavioral science of management and design and innovation. A few even spotted snow for the very first time today! . #GNW2018 #yalesom #nhv #networkedlearning
85 students from 16 schools are enrolled in our Behavioral Science of Management week-long course as part of Global Network Week. Welcome and enjoy your week on campus! . #yalesom #gnw2017 #globalnetwork #networkedlearning (at Yale School of Management)
550 students from 15 schools are traveling across the globe to take place in Global Network Week. We got a preview of the @lbsnigeria experience, thanks to @ssanumy! .

Representatives from nine Global Network schools, including #YaleSOM met recently at #INCAE for the 2nd Annual Global Network Unconference on Entrepreneurship to learn about the developing entrepreneurial ecosystem of Costa Rica and discuss how to best leverage the Network to strengthen individual entrepreneurial programs such our our Program on Entrepreneurship. . #yalesom #globalnetwork #networkedlearning #entrepreneurship (at INCAE Business School)
I want to learn to make bread, without a bread machine....
The first thing I am going to do is go to my learning network - other students in this course, and see if anyone already has skills in this area. My first step to do this will be to return to the map of our skills and look there... However, I see that no-one has put up skills about baking.
So what to do next? Still deciding to use our network I went to Lau’s blog and saw her post also on what she will be learning: First steps to my learning experience
On reading that her first step was to go to Google I realised that my first step is usually the same as hers, so why did I instead go to our network first? After a little reflection I remembered a previous post of mine where I was reflecting upon Goodyear (2014) and his writings on trust: “Trust can be infectious within networks.“ In this post I had really connected with these insights, so perhaps this connection had stayed with me and is the reason for my first step of checking with our network, in which case I still intend to do so; I will post in our forum to ask about making bread, perhaps people have this knowledge but forgot to put it on our skills map.
With that in mind, I will first look at CLEM for a framework. I see that in Lau’s blog post (linked above), she decides to break it down even prior to this with a KWHLAQ diagram. This looks great! I am tempted to do the same but have decided I won’t. As a learner I want to get to the doing part quickly and am afraid of getting bogged down (this is not a criticism of Lau! I may find I do need to come back and do this, so we’ll see).
CLEM (1)
COMMUNITY: To start with the most obvious, I am not in any baking communities, that is to say, no groups specifically formed to bake or learn about baking. So I need to look back at my learning network map and see which networks could help me. I could go to my family (mum and brother), my workplace (lots of colleagues like to bake), other students here, and friends.
Literature: I currently have nothing to go here.
Examples: At the moment, I only know my brother has baked his own bread before, some successfully, some not so - apparently sour dough bread is difficult.
Model: I do not know which PKM tool to use. I like Nikki’s idea of using a lesson plan to guide her learning, as a past teacher I could construct this for myself also, so I will think on this.
I will endeavour to develop this CLEM framework further.
Hashtag Folksonomy: Pinboard as Twitter Hashtag curation tool. In a recent conversation with Michael McCabe of the Kornerstone School he shared a fine idea of using hashtags for the curation of learning much Like social bookmarks of today. Would Pinboard work?
