Re: Thanks

Dear C3ers,

I thought Bill's opening was very useful in setting the context. Dave & Mark did a great job too, especially to keep people on task and on track when the technology sought to do otherwise.

From here, I think we need to keep our focus on establishing CSR as work practice through follow up one-to-one sessions. That is probably enough to do this semester.

Bill's questions point to work that does need to be considered & I hope will be part of next meeting's discussion, during which I think we should decide what our main goals are this semester, being mindful of adding any new initiatives at this stage.

Cheers,

Owen.

I thought we all did a great job too. The training helped many ASP teachers feel comfortable with sharing and co-editing documents for ASP, and I felt that strongly in the ASP meeting this afternoon.

Dear C3

I want to thank you all for your extraordinary efforts in putting together this morning's C3 session.  I think it went well and that we are building both interest and support for creating our "community of practice" in the ELP.  I think we need to continue working on promoting use of the tools and "CSR" through our individual example and through helping others, but at this point, I think we should let nature take its course and see what issues develop that we might need to address as a group later on. 

For now, the ELP spring retreat is on hold as we wait to see what will be required of us vis-a-vis the freshman retreat, but if we manage to escape that duty, I  think that would be a good time to revisit some aspects of our C3 plan.

In the meantime, questions that I am mulling over are:

What is the best platform for course/administrative homepages?

How to we create a comprehensive ELP archive?

How can we best establish our common tagging and document naming protocols?

Any comments on these or other questions are welcome.

Bill
