| Well, this is the first comment. I think that this was worth the ten minutes of time I spent watching. I agree with your outlook on the subject of informal training in the workplace. The more relaxed a person is, the more receptive that person is to verbal information. |

| Very nice video on informal learning. When I do training sessions I realize that participants typically retain only a certain percentage of what they learned. However when peole learn informally they do it in the context of a certain activity, which fosters beter retention. Thanks Parag |

| Very nice video Jay. I've been following your work for a year, and this summary of your theses generated numerous quotables. Loved the myface metaphor, driving home your themes of human community. Did you at all intend to sacrifice a bit of your production value to the the closeup-induced fuzziness, perhaps in order to pluck a range of subconscious chords? Great use of MovieMaker too; |

| greenerthan, the production values story is this. 1) i recorded the video with my casio pocket camera mounted on a mini tripod on my desk. 2) i feel that impromptu, un-slick video has more credibility than studio production. what do you think? am i just rationalizing my crappy a/v skills? |

| Brilliant, Jay! I'm trying to post this video on my blog, but it looks like YouTube doesn't support TypePad yet, so I'm just going to have to link to it... |

| Thanks for the conversation Jay! Your slides seemed to play the part of the respondent and there's nothing like eye contact to maintain attention. Good to find an interesting resource on an interesting topic - informal learning. |
| Good video. You ... ( 1 year ago by trombone7) |
| Good video. You need to be bigger on the screen though. At no point did your face actually take up the entire screen. I think the biggest barrier to informal learning is a company not wanting to really go into "Why we do it this way." They don't want to conversationally uproot the motivations or lack of motivations, or how shallow monotonous or redundant entire departments of a company are. They'd rather put together a bullet-point email presentation and a multiple choice test. Thanks again. |

| I am a student and I am shocked how much everything is about exams, especially in the british systems. I always say, if school was good it would not need to be obligatory. |
| Very interesting, ... ( 9 months ago by ChessLectures) |
| Very interesting, personally the "art" and "science" of learning (and informal learning) is probably the most interesting thing. I am a chess player and i find that the process of informal-learning is perhaps more important then the normal examatic / 1-2-3 method. There's a book by Waitzkin- "The Art of Learning" exactly on that topic. You made me realize that i'm an Informal-Learner and that is why i have an almost autistic ability for autodidaction and such low grades! Thanks |

| Very instructive! Direct contact with people is a very important learning method that I hasn't toke time to analyse before. As a french webmaster looking for a web to learn in this english web (because english is the universal language here), I think that a real eyes contact as demonstrated in your teaching, give a great help in learning confidence and stimulate positive orizons. I hope that I was clear in that foreign language. |

| And I think you're an informal teacher...! You've explained it better than most of my lecturers in university. You have a very positive outlook on new media's role in education, but like Henry Jenkins I also believe that the so-called "web 2.0" technologies can be put to good means and ends in the digital age. Great video! |

| Please informally learn how to use a tripod or at least a stack of books. |
