How does the concept work in the digital space?
-Learn= digital objects (podcasts, videos, posts, courses)
-Act= Projects, real life instances. Photos, descriptive info, grp messages, expert panels - hub.
generate, synthesize, consolidate
Generate questions > reframe, emanate.prioritize question ,
Generate Knowledge about top questions: invites them to share why those questions/experience are important. What’s the history of the experience? This is where they drop their knowledge about the question. Brings focus. What do we do with the question once we’ve learned more about it? The process moves the parties involved towards agreement / and yes, no, maybe, where are the tensions categories in 50 states.
How to operationalize this using as little structure as possible, so it doesn’t get bogged down.
Online/Offline boundary. Find the key moments you want to surface online/off.
Bring back the table of free voices: largest round table. Nationally culminates together.
If somebody can do this better, we should let them. Unfair advantage is that we’re MIT.
Projects: can do a great job of sharing and communicating.
Collaboration tools: slack, etc. and bring those conclusions back to the project space/
Want to move towards API integration, allowing different programs to work together and share data.
-Profile; fb, linkedin
-Collaboration; using 3rd party tools
How much of what we’re doing is pushing this network through MIT?
What are the primary and secondary topics?
2 tier taxonomy - framework, cards,dialogue/conversations. Any object ges labeled with card, and coded as such > could become difficult. Does it meant there are sub themes to different cards? Ex: Margins
Ceasar -Would love to put simple structure out and put out the question to the community.
Optimal sort: build sites and taxonomies
Next Steps:
If you were teaching someone about a certain card, what else would you be talking about besides what’s in the card?
If delivering a powerpoint with 8 ch., what would be the set of pages in each?
Next workshop scheduled for Wed, July 5th 10-11am.
