Well, I got them all correct. I guess its because I was into the “networking” thing long before it was fashionable. I was “downsized” (remember that term) the first time in 1991. My circle of friends, co-workers, business associates, community service partners, etc were my source of support and guidance to a new job. I didn’t call it networking, it was just life. What I learned was not only receive but GIVE BACK.. Since those days I have always been there to help those who have lost their job, needed a resume brush up, or just some one to chat with to get them back on their career path. I have been blessed with two great careers and now in my mid 50′s am starting a third. Networking, life or whatever we want to call is so vital that without it, I am not sure where my professional life would have went. So yes, pay it forward and let other benefit from the path you have already tread. Skip

I got all four correct and would love to read this book. I have been networking every way possible and expanding my network through LinkedIn and Facebook and also with every person I talk to. You really do need to make your network work for you.

Thanks!

Comment on Instructional Designers Do What? by Sue Schnorr

Great point about technology. Thanks for your input.

These days, instructional designers need to be cognizant of the web 2.0 tools that are available as options to enhance and reinforce traditional training and that can be used on their own to support learning and performance improvement.

My two cents:

Instructional Design
The process of designing sustainable solutions to opportunities for learning through the application of analysis, learning theory, information architecture, presentation, interactivity and assessment.

eLearning Design
All the above and the thoughtful integration of technology, too.

Great article!
I agree, you need to give FIRST, and then wait to receive. Personally, I’ve found that I get a lot of satisfaction from the ‘giving’ aspect. It’s great when you see a job posting that perfectly fits someone in your network, and you immediately call to let them know about it. Start doing this routinely, and then see how many people in your network start calling YOU with job leads. The Reciprocity Principle in action!
