The DIY University or Business School: how to build your own agile learning experience with social media

The hardest things we learn — how to speak and many other life skills — we learn mainly through self-directed improvisation. That method didn’t scale to meet the needs of industrial society, but as those needs change and the sophistication of online resources and tools make self-organised learning scalable, the time is right for agile, improvised learning methods to reassert themselves, argues David Jennings.

The online world means that reputations are being built, and destroyed, on blogs, review sites, message boards and now twitter. Your search ranking might plausibly be described as a reputation index. But has the PR industry moved fast enough to cope?

Communications have become democratised and where, historically, there might have been a couple of dozen journalists to contact in any given sector, there is now an army of millions of active commentators. The age of reputation management through lunch with the editor has ended.

So is there still an argument for a space for PR in the boardroom? The emergence of new skill sets around search, analytics and social media means that new players are jockeying for position and claim a better understanding of the world of new media communications. Is PR past its prime?

This event will take the form of a debate, although with a tweaked format to allow plenty of audience participation.

There will be partially-free drinking and plenty of space for argument after the debate. 

The Panel

Mike Nutley (Chair) - Editor-in-Chief at New Media Age.

Stuart Bruce - MD and founder of Wolfstar and leading PR blogger.

Antony Mayfield - Head of Social Media at iCrossing with a blog at Open.

James Warren - Global Head of Digital at Weber Shandwick and also a blogger

Google Maps once again not at its finest. To get to Hoxton Square, You take the Old Street (East) exit from Old Street Tube.
