I'm happy to announce that we have scheduled our first community Virtual Field Trip! Randy Fisher will take us on a tour of WikiEducator on Monday, August 10 at 15:00 PDT, 22:00 GMT (see your time zone). We will meet in this Elluminate room. (If you're new to Elluminate follow the link to check audio, connection, and software.) This particular field trip will also launch the 3-week SCoPE seminar "Collaborative Projects on WikiEducator" August 10 - 28, 2009.
As suggested by Alice McGillivray during the Vancouver event, we will be using the CP4 model to frame our field trip discussions. This model was developed by the US Military and uses 4 overlapping elements to describe a community's purpose:
- Content
- Connections
- Conversations
- Context
I hope to see you at our first Virtual Field Trip! Thanks so much Randy, for stepping up to the plate to launch this series.
