'Social learning sucks!'—Gripes and grumbles DEBUNKED

14 August 2025 Rebecca Hall

Social learning: More than just a buzzword?

The conversation around AI and online learning often centers on the individual, but what if the real gains come from learning together? While social learning is a popular term, is it just a buzzword, or is there a genuine, powerful way to tap into it?

In our latest Death of E-Learning podcast episode, we put Stefan Eger, Learning Experience Architect and expert in social learning experience design, on the hot seat. We challenge him to prove why learning with and from peers can dramatically boost your learners' comprehension and retention.

We're not holding back. We're getting to the bottom of:

  • How do you make social learning actually work?
  • How do you get people to care enough to engage?

Forget the fluff. We're giving you the blueprint—complete with real, proven examples—for how to use social learning to transform your programs. This is the episode that changes the conversation.👇
