There's a moment of insight when a clinician thinks, "If social learning is a more robust way to find answers, how can I make my social network a better social learning network?" Social learning can be effective in one-on-one or small team-based settings, but as we are all beginning to understand, the greater the critical mass of the social network, the greater the efficacy of the social learning. ” View full resource at scoop.it
