In a blog by Stephen Cunha, the topic surrounds the topic of the Social Learning Theory and how it relates to blended learning. He explains that in a blended, or often, online educational environment, there is versatility in being able to teach from anywhere and anytime. He explains how this relates to the Social learning theory in that, for example, various educational videos to be used, for example, for training purposes, where trainees can visualize other seasoned employees in motion. Through this indirect social interaction, the individual begins to learn the most effective ways to perform their jobs (Cunha, 2014).

            This type of information can prove quite effective for, say, introducing the concept of social learning and its various benefits to the leadership of the organization in question. Stephen Cunha is a newer employee of an organization that goes by the name of Litmos. He recently graduated with a BA and is aspiring as an advocate for change. Thus far, there have only been a handful of responders that appear to be staying relevant with the questions and comments made. Based upon the host organization having a good reputation, I would feel confident in recommending that someone read his posts (Cunha, 2014).
