A Better Example is Declara (Score 1)

Declara is far along the path to developing the capabilities this article describes. They have active networks in Australia and Mexico and have one under development in California called Collaboration in Common. References to Coursera and Khan miss the importance of developing informal professional learning exchanges that take place around a team effort to create something. They also do not follow personal needs and interests and introduce content and expertise based on a person's current interest and focus or make it east to collect and share what they know or discover with others. Declara is not the only effort to make progress to support informal learning networks, Amazon Inspire will be launching later this year with a focus on K-12 education and CLANED is under development in Europe.
