Hi,
first I like things brief and practical.
i love the link to website resources - a godsend !
i love personal stories and examples of learning organization efforts in
action.
here my 2 cents worth: as a High School teacher I've set up by "Diffusion
Model" for spreading the LO germ as an archetypal "S-curve"; like
sustainable development. It has 3 steps: create PASSION, support RISK, and
develop REFLECTION [metacognition] in the learners. Depending upon the
culture 1 step will be the bone cruncher.
these sites are great in relationship to this idea:

A. Microworlds, using the internet to learn:
http://ada.lesley.edu/faculty/flescher/team1.htm
B. Brain based learning http://www.thelearningweb.net
C. Simulation gets real: http://www.filename.com/wbt/pages/rules.htm
D. Diffusion Theory & Instructional Technology -
http://www.coe.usouthal.edu/faculty/dsurry/lscope99/index.htm

That's it short and sweet by the way I love the good quotes too:
                        "Your job is not to make drink, your job is to make
them thirsty"
