A thought on SOs as LOs
Posted on May 19, 2010 by oettveevers
To add to the points raised by Ted on Social Objects as Learning Objects, I can see direct parallels with the real world.
As I see it, social objects are those that involve some kind of interaction with other people, such as chat rooms.
These can also be learning objects as learning can occur in any social interaction. This is in the same way that in the real world many kinds of social interaction can involve learning.
Also, have a look at Micah‘s example of how a Social Object can be used as a Learning Object.

Yes they are really annoying. I guess that’s what you get though when you get something for nothing.
