ELP C3: 'Working Agenda 4/21/09

Please add your items:

* Network teaching and learning. Two essential ingredients: 1) Personal Learning Environments 2) E-portfolios.

Connections. Learning/teaching as a social activity. ELP = Distributed learning environment. Reforms that reform must involve reconfiguring the underlying structures and processes of the ELP, in other words 'how' work is done. Reform built on existing structures and systems will create a shinier version of an inefficient, outdated model; a Prius, when what we really need is a hovercraft. Reform needs to be about building such an organisation: one that can go quickly in any direction and travel well over any terrain - a dynamic organisation for dynamic times.

* Doing the R in CSR.

I guess we have two times up for decision, 3/31 2pm and 4/7 10am. If meeting on 3/31 to prepare an announcement for 4/1 seems better, then we could meet without Dave, but if 4/7 is OK for everyone, meeting all together sounds best.

In any case, I'm flying back from Denver tomorrow. See you all soon!

Just a few days left until the start of the most exciting term in ELP, a new spring! The sakura are starting to look pretty fine on campus, too.

If the meeting date goes to the 7th, I'm free between 10 am and 2:45. (It will be Ray's 2nd or 3rd day at day care, and we are trying to introduce him to that experience gently.)

Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

Hi everyone,

I'm ok with the 7th, and it seems better for several people, but it won't allow us to make any specific announcements at the April 1st meeting about where we are with the C3 plan and what we hope to accomplish this year. However, it is probably fine to just say that we will be meeting soon and will let people know our plans after that.

If anyone has any other thoughts on what we might want to say on the 1st, please contribute them to this discussion. Also, what time works best for everyone on the 7th?
Is 9:00 too early?

I'm still good for the 31st 2pm. But actually the 7th would be better for me schedule-wise. On the 31st I'll just be back from Denver and busy with some coordinating work for ASP.

I wonder if we might consider meeting on the 7th if all of our schedules seem OK.\

Everyone, what do you think about the 7th?

Please bring along one story to tell about how you have used the Open Learning Network to support you in any aspect of your work.

FYI, the big news from Tasmania today is the reopening of the King Island abattoir!

Hi C3ers,

I'm really excited to join this group and I would very much like to attend the meeting on the 31st. The only problem is that I have a doctor's appointment near Tsukiji at 11 a.m. and won't be able to get back to Mitaka until around 2 p.m. or so. So given Bill's preferences, 2 o'clock should work (I hope). Sorry if this inconvenicnes any one of you.

Re: C3 meeting?

Hi C3ers,

As a newcomer, I'm not exactly sure where we are meeting tomorrow. Could any of you enlighten me on that? (I've checked Google Calendar but it only says "TBD").

Thanks!
Hiroshi

Hi Mark,

I think we'll just meet on the 7th. So far 10:00 seems ok for that day.

Have a safe trip back.

I'm good at 10am on the 7th. How are your schedules, Owen and Ged?

I guess we have two times up for decision, 3/31 2pm and 4/7 10am. If meeting on 3/31 to prepare an announcement for 4/1 seems better, then we could meet without Dave, but if 4/7 is OK for everyone, meeting all together sounds best.

In any case, I'm flying back from Denver tomorrow. See you all soon!

Hi all,

I second the motion to move the meeting date to the 7th! And I'm available anytime that day.

Thanks!

Howdy!

Just a few days left until the start of the most exciting term in ELP, a new spring! The sakura are starting to look pretty fine on campus, too.

If the meeting date goes to the 7th, I'm free between 10 am and 2:45. (It will be Ray's 2nd or 3rd day at day care, and we are trying to introduce him to that experience gently.)

Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

Thank you and

Tak-it-e-z!

Best regards,
Dave

Hi everyone,

I'm ok with the 7th, and it seems better for several people, but it won't allow us to make any specific announcements at the April 1st meeting about where we are with the C3 plan and what we hope to accomplish this year. However, it is probably fine to just say that we will be meeting soon and will let people know our plans after that.

If anyone has any other thoughts on what we might want to say on the 1st, please contribute them to this discussion. Also, what time works best for everyone on the 7th?
Is 9:00 too early?

Thanks,

Bill

Hi Owen,

Congratulations on the reopening of the abattoir. I can't wait to visit ;-)

I'm still good for the 31st 2pm. But actually the 7th would be better for me schedule-wise. On the 31st I'll just be back from Denver and busy with some coordinating work for ASP.

I wonder if we might consider meeting on the 7th if all of our schedules seem OK.\

Everyone, what do you think about the 7th?

Mark

Dear C3ers,

Let's go with Tuesday the 31st then, 2 o'clock, the usual place. I think there is some shared interest in meeting before the ELP meeting. Although Dave cannot make, it seems that we will have a good quorum, and we can catch up with Dave the next day.

Please bring along one story to tell about how you have used the Open Learning Network to support you in any aspect of your work.

FYI, the big news from Tasmania today is the reopening of the King Island abattoir!

Regards,

Owen.

Hi!

Hope you are all enjoying the end of your break!

I am looking forward to meeting, but the 31st is not possible for me. How about sometime Tuesday the 7th? There doesn't seem to be anything listed on the calendar on that day.

Thank you and

Best regards,
Dave

Hi C3ers,

I'm really excited to join this group and I would very much like to attend the meeting on the 31st. The only problem is that I have a doctor's appointment near Tsukiji at 11 a.m. and won't be able to get back to Mitaka until around 2 p.m. or so. So given Bill's preferences, 2 o'clock should work (I hope). Sorry if this inconvenicnes any one of you.

Best,

Hiroshi

Dear C3ers,

I wondering if there is enough interest to hold a meeting Tuesday 3/31, the day before our ELP start up meeting? Say, 9 a.m.? Monday and/or other times are options too, as is no meeting!

Please indicate if you would like to attend and your preferred day and time.

Arigachi,

Owen.
