Tagoras in Associations Now – and Other Resources

A busy year end here at Tagoras has kept us from posting much over the past couple of weeks. And the coming couple of weeks will also be light, given the arrival of the holidays. Before signing off for 2010, however, I wanted to highlight a recent mention of Tagoras in ASAE’s Associations Now magazine and also  be sure that readers are aware of a range of other resources here on the site.

On page 13 of the current edition of Associations Now you will find us mentioned as one of “Three ways to learn about e-learning.” (Click the link to view it online). The article specifically points to An Association E-learning Conversation, the discussion Ellen Behrens and I had earlier this year about the state of association education. It also points to two other resources previously mentioned here on the Tagoras blog – a series of video primers for e-teaching and learning by Indiana University professor Curt Bonk and Learning Perspectives: 2010, a free eBook from the Masie Center.

The conversation with Ellen is just one of a wide range of free resources we offer in the resources area here on the Tagoras site. Others include our free eBook, Learning 2.0 for Associations, data from a range of reports, and white papers on topics like Pricing Online Learning.

This blog is also a great resource in and of itself. In addition to offering perspectives from our work on association educational initiatives, we also continually highlight resources like those note above from Curt Bonk and the Masie Center. The best way to take advantage of this ongoing stream of resources is to subscribe to the RSS feed or use the Blog Updates form over to the right to subscribe by e-mail.

Finally, I’d like to highlight one other important resource you can access on the site: our monthly Association Learning/Technology Digest. We just put out a new edition of this and it is packed with good resources. You get the latest edition automatically upon subscribing – and it’s easy to unsubscribe at any time should you decide you don’t want to receive the newsletter anymore.

Well, that’s probably it for 2010. Thanks so much for reading the Tagoras blog, and very Happy Holidays to you and yours!

ASAE 2010 Postgame – More Learning 2.0

In a previous post on Learning 2.0 at (and after and around) the ASAE annual meeting I emphasized Twitter as a learning tool. To follow up, I want to highlight the round-up of blog posts that ASAE itself has linked to from its Acronym blog.

Whether or not you were able to attend the meeting, taking a tour of these posts is a great learning experience. And no doubt each was also an excellent way for the writer to reflect on the experience and consolidate learning by putting thoughts into writing.

Here are the Acronym posts. Each contains a dozen or more links to bloggers sharing thoughts about the annual meeting experience:

I won’t continue to harp on how powerful this sort of thing is – the learning, the link juice, the potentially viral exposure, and all as part of a natural process of providing great value to members. One last item I will throw in, though, is that you can view an archive of all of the tweets that came out of and are continuing to come out of the annual meeting at:

(Twitter itself does not keep tweets for all that long, so if you want to have a record of tweets from your conferences, tweet chats, etc., TwapperKeeper is a good option.)

Score One for Learning 2.0 at ASAE Annual

August 26, 2010

We’re expecting a baby here on the home front, so it wasn’t in the cards for me to attend ASAE annual in person this year. But I was still “there” to a significant extent, and will probably remain “there” for a while after. No, I don’t have mystical powers or a transporter (for those of [...]

ASAE Virtual Lunch Recording

July 6, 2009

I’ve written about this more extensively (including a rundown of how the recording was made) over on my personal blog, but here’s the audio link for the “virtual lunch” that the American Society of Association Executives Professional Development Section Council (wow, that’s a mouthful, eh?!) held last week. You can stream it from the site [...]
