I just finished reading an article for class titled The Future of Learning Objects by H. Wayne Hodgins.
Learning objects are blocks or chunks of information and content. It could be a procedure, principle, concept, process, fact, etc. The objects alone may not mean much to someone unless they are put into proper context. The article closed with the following quote:
Perhaps the greatest challenge of all is how can we as people also become more effective and efficient as “learning objects” ourselves.
That’s an interesting concept (a-ha, a learning object). Are we as people individual walking, talking repositories of learning objects? When we exchange our tacit knowledge with others are we exchanging learning objects where the recipient of the object applies it to their personal mental model?
This is something I’m sure I’ll be pondering throughout the week.
