I found a few more people on a later post (Agile learning and agile education) and in the years in between, had the opportunity to experiment while working with a group of people learning web programming.

And yes, I do agree that enabling people to adapt their own learning plan is important – see Tip 5: Gradually handing over control of learning. I’m currently trying to put an open-source web application together in my spare time – Learning Goals / Goal Tracker overview to help facilitae individualised learning on a larger scale.

Where is your current focus, Dick? Have you had the chance to be working on other edu-projects since LearnDirect?

You were here first but we are thinking along similar lines, I blogged on agile learning last year at http://www.toolsandtaxonomy.com/2010/07/13/agile-learning-agile-software-development-and-the-mobile-internet/

Interested in your comments. Did you get much pick up on this?

Yes, that’s definitely true in the sense of not deriving exclusively from agile methodology. One of the interviews I did about agile learning, with Dick Moore, draws a number of explicit comparisons between agile learning and agile development methods. So that’s definitely feeding into the discussions we’ve been having in the UK.

Would very much like to extend that discussion to merge with what you’re doing as well…
