Back from presenting at the CAPLA Recognition of Prior Learning Conference in Antigonish, Nova Scotia! Still feeling the buzz :) www.linkedin.com/posts/taruna... #RPL #PLAR #LearnChat #CAPLA
From Tabula Rasa to RPL/PLAR: Valuing What’s Already There tarunagoel.blogspot.com/2025/05/from... #LearnChat #RPL #PLAR #RecognitionFirst #RecognitionOfPriorLearning
Good night, y'all. Headed out soon for the @canadianelearning.bsky.social (where I'll get to see @tracyparish.bsky.social, hooray!) and hope to see some of you there! #Learnchat
Thanks for joining us for #LearnChat! We’ll be back in June. Until then, stay curious and keep learning in the flow.
Great "seeing" everyone tonight. Thank you for the insights and the laughs. Being instrumental instead of incidental to informal learning will only raise L&D's profile and value within an organization. It will happen with or without us. #LearnChat
Wrap) Thanks for the chat, #LearnChat! Am off to presenting at a Recognition of Prior Learning conference where I am advocating for valuing all types of learning. You can find my thoughts and ramblings here: www.linkedin.com/in/tarunagoel/
aWrap) Gotta run, thanks for a great #LearnChat, organizers and attendees. Always a pleasure to have thoughts sparked! Stay curious, my friends. Will plug the Learning Development Accelerator, a society for evidence-based L&D ldaccelerator.com #usualcaveat
LET'S WRAP THIS UP!
Thanks for being part of tonight’s fast-flowing chat. Any last thoughts, resources, or plugs to share with the #LearnChat group?
Yes, it's definitely not part-time work for one or two people! An entire team should be dedicated to its use, maintenance, and reporting. #LearnChat
YES! THIS!!!! let's start with what people know instead of assuming "blank slates"! New post on that coming soon! #LearnChat
As I meet with my audience, I want to ask them about the last time they learned something at work without attending a formal event: How did they learn that, and what did they think of the experience? Hopefully I can build on that to make it even better for them. #LearnChat
A7) That I need to talk more about the value of recognition of prior learning! It is one the key lenses I use to design workforce development strategies in the skill development work I do in Canada. #LearnChat
a7) I definitely need to be more conscious about learning #LearnChat
Time for reflection is one of the pillars of a learning organization (Garvin, Edmondson, Gino, HBR 2008) #learnchat
And share what you know. Don't just save everything to C:
#Learnchat
Q7 Looking back on tonight’s convo: What’s one idea or insight you’re taking into your learning practice this month? #LearnChat
A6) time. Slowing the pace of deliverables, provides an opportunity for reflection and alternative thinking #LearnChat
A6) I don’t want to change the default from courses to workflow learning.
I want there not to be a default solution at all.
#LearnChat
A6) Recognize all types of learning beyond just the formal. Informal and non formal learning needs to be identified, recognized and validated - system-wide so that “learning in the flow” becomes the preferred way across the org #LearnChat #RecognitionofPriorLearning #RPL
As useful as I find the AI tool at work, I would still prefer a DAP. Using the AI requires me to shift foucs to that window, then perhaps to a window with a resource, then to the window where I'm working. A DAP meets me where I am. #LearnChat
a6) a culture of cooperation. Being willing to help, or ask therefore, when needed. #learnchat
A5) Before sending an article to an editor a few years ago, I gave it to ChatGPT and asked it to make it 30% shorter, since editors always tell me I’m “wordy”.
It did.
Then I got curious.
“Tell me what you cut, and why”
I did that regularly until a realized I no longer needed to.
#LearnChat
Q6) What one shift would help make “learning in the flow” a true habit across your org or team? #LearnChat
At least you're bringing the gold with the gifs! #LearnChat
a5) can you do 'stealth' learning? Do you need conscious reflection? Not with biologically primary, presumably, but biologically secondary (c.f. Geary)? Truly don't know. #learnchat
A5) Task/outcome-focused learning
Access to tools/resources
Limited time (!)
Willingness and availability of someone to bounce ideas with #LearnChat
A4) AI will deliver on the promise and value of “Learning in the Flow of Work” not by being a “Flow of Work” tool, but by changing the workplace so “Flow of Work” behaviors are a natural part of the workplace.

Late to #LearnChat, but here I am. :)
An easy-to-follow interface with a limited feature set. #LearnChat
