    TRAILER project overview: Tagging, recognition and acknowledgment of informal learning experiences
    (2013-01-15) García-Peñalvo, Francisco J.; Zangrando, Valentina; García-Holgado, Alicia; Conde-González, M. Á.; Seoane Pardo, Antonio M.; Alier Forment, Marc; Janssen, Jose; Griffiths, Dai; Mykowska, Aleksandra; Alves, Gustavo R.; Minovic, Miroslav
    The evolution of new technology and its increasing use, have for some years been making the existence of informal learning more and more transparent, especially among young and older adults in both Higher Education and workplace contexts. However, the nature of formal and non-formal, course-based, approaches to learning has made it hard to accommodate these informal processes satisfactorily, and although technology bring us near to the solution, it has not yet achieved. TRAILER project aims to address this problem by developing a tool for the management of competences and skills acquired through informal learning experiences, both from the perspective of the user and the institution or company. This paper describes the research and development main lines of this project.

    Informal learning in work environments: training with the Social Web in the workplace
    (Taylor & Francis, 2012-09-21) Colomo-Palacios, Ricardo; Lytras, Miltiadis; García Peñalvo, Francisco J.
    The Internet and its increasing usage has changed informal learning in depth. This change has affected young and older adults in both the workplace and in higher education. But, in spite of this, formal and non-formal course-based approaches have not taken full advantage of these new informal learning scenarios and technologies. The Web 2.0 is a new way for people to communicate across the Internet. Communication is a means of transformation and knowledge exchange. These are the facts that cannot be obviated by the organisations in their training programmes and knowledge management. This special issue is devoted to investigating how informal learning changes or influences online information in Social Web and training strategies in institutions. In order to do so, five papers will present different approaches of informal learning in the workplace regarding Web 2.0 capabilities.
