| 13 | __Getting on Track with Next-Generation Learning Methods and Systems__ | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | * Current version 1.x syllabus assumes place-based learning; | ||
| 16 | * Version 2.x will suit any learning scenario | ||
| 17 | * Review [[OERu>>url:http://oeruniversitas.org/||title="OERu"]] and consider collaboration opportunities (EOR is a consortium and has a foundation) | ||
| 18 | ** Should contact Wayne Macintosh in New Zealand, founder of OER Foundation | ||
| 19 | * Could expand the foundations module to address open methods of governance and of finance | ||
| 20 | * [[Openness Constituent Group>>url:http://www.educause.edu/discuss/information-technology-management-and-leadership/openness-constituent-group||title="Openness Constituent Group"]] at [[EduCause>>url:http://www.educause.edu/||title="EduCause"]] | ||
| 21 | * It's useful that all this is in a free modular and extensible course rather than book | ||
| 22 | * Good that the syllabus functions as a combined pointer and repository of content, from which anyone can pull info for a course | ||
| 23 | * Nice fit with UNESCO [[Open and Distance Learning>>url:http://www.unesco.org/new/en/unesco/themes/icts/lifelong-learning/open-and-distance-learning/||title="Open and Distance Learning"]] | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | __Communications__ | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | * The syllabus will be moved onto osi.xwiki.com within days | ||
| 28 | * Then shared widely to invite others to participate in the WG and in advancing and using the syllabus | ||
| 29 | * Need to let people know we are looking for WG participants | ||
| 30 | * Need to make it straightforward to contribute to the , and to learn how to contribute | ||
| 31 | * Will continue to explore the option of a periodic table interface for the module | ||
| 32 | |||
| 33 | __EDU-WG Goverance__ | ||
| 34 | |||
| 35 | * Need to define and governance of the syllabus: the current approach is that there will be both: | ||
| 36 | ** An open-edited wiki version of the syllabus which is dynamic, __on osi.xwiki.com__ | ||
| 37 | ** A WG-approved snapshot wiki version of the syllabus on __opensource.org__ that has benefitted from peer-review of modules ... rather like the software repository vs the compiled build | ||
| 38 | * Role of the WG Chair should be explained in relation to the syllabus: basically a "Managing Editor" role that is contingent ultimately upon OSI Board satisfaction with performance. This is not a benevolent dictator role. | ||
| 39 | * WG Weekly Conference cCs | ||
| 40 | ** Audio & text via SIP ([[Jitsi>>url:https://jitsi.org/||title="Jitsi"]] and [[Linphone>>url:http://www.linphone.org||title="Linphone"]] are advanced free/libre/open solutions). The POTS conferencing line is not a free call from many areas, so ad hoc changes would be needed too often. Skype is widely used but the firm is free/libre/open. | ||
| 41 | ** A weekly meeting page will be created on xwiki (like this one) and will be used for live scribing of discussion (alternative for anyone not authenticating can be [[OpenEtherpad>>url:http://etherpad.org/||title="OpenEtherpad"]]) | ||
| 42 | ** Weekly Conference Call" For day/time, need to pick a time that fits most potential participant. Using [[Meeting Planner>>url:http://www.thetimenow.com/meeting-planner.php||title="Meeting Planner"]] it seems the following combination might be viable on a chosen day (and conveniently to avoid "which day" confusion, these time are ALL on the SAME day of the week). So far, preference has been Fridays: | ||
| 43 | *** London 13:00 | ||
| 44 | *** New York 08:00 | ||
| 45 | *** Vancouver 05:00 | ||
| 46 | *** Brisbane 23:00 | ||
| 47 | *** New Delhi 18:30 | ||
| 48 | |||
| 49 | * Ad Hoc Conference Calls: Schedule with [[www.doodle.com>>url:http://www.doodle.com||title="www.doodle.com"]] ([[Yes it is free/libre/open.>>url:http://en.blog.doodle.com/2010/09/02/doodle-gets-swiss-open-source-award/||title="Yes it is free/libre/open."]]) | ||
