Google has changed the way we think as a society. It is no longer just a popular search engine. It has become a verb. A household name. A trusted source of anything and everything you could want to know in a matter of seconds. It has even become a personality you can interact with (“Hey Google”). What does this mean for us as professionals seeking to educate and inform the eager minds of the coming generations? This the question I plan to tackle in my presentation.

After the session, you will be able to:

• Describe the concepts of Transactive Memory

• Explain the role of on-demand learning

• Use collaborative problem solving (crowdsourcing)

• Apply Knowledge Management principles to learning solutions
