The essential mechanism by which we have been learning for millennia is being rewired for us. We're being taught to distrust traditional teaching methods (i.e. Socratic) and embrace just-in-time knowledge transfer. Applications running on tablets and smart phones are quickly replacing mentors, teachers, professors, and even supervisors.
The saving grace among all this chaos is that learning is less a singular event and is slowly becoming a social experience. In social learning, each of us becomes both the teacher and the student.
New tools and applications allow us to use video, animation, annotations, and even create fun interactions to illustrate what we need to share.
