(Last Updated On: January 15, 2022)

Let me ask you this. How do you stay abreast of changes in your field of study? Or how do you learn about new ways of teaching? As many of you already know, I am a huge fan of informal learning and lifelong learning. The Seek – Sense – Share framework helps keep me current.

Seeking is about pulling in information that is new. It is basically keeping my eyes and ears open to what is happening in the world. I tend to find information around areas of interest or problems that I am trying to solve. They may be my problems or problems for others. Keeping an eye out for new information is a fairly rapid process. Primarily, I scan titles to articles until one looks interesting. I will then open it, read it, and decide if it is worth keeping or not.

The process of sense-making is necessary before I share information with others. In my various roles, I believe it is my responsibility to help find and distribute new content in order to help others excel. Sense-making is a key component of this process because I have to first understand it and know how the new knowledge will benefit others before I can share it.

While each element is critical to this framework, I am especially a fan of the Share element. Sharing is an opportunity to add to the world knowledge base with your interpretation of what you have learned. Learning is about dialogue; dialogue with either content or with others. By sharing content, you open a door to dialogue and learning with those who network with you.

This episode will take a closer look at the Seek – Sense – Share framework and the tools I use to carry out each part of the framework.
