A conversation is open when anyone can participate, when anyone can read it, when people are honest, and when people respond to others' honesty.
Five Weeks to a Social Library is a rider of the Cluetrain. We want to be a good example of the Open Conversation. This is a learning experience for everyone, the participants, the presenters, the watchers and commenters from afar, and especially the planners.
We may be steering this adventure, but we by no means have all the answers. If there is something you hate about the course, software you would like to critique that we use in the course, or any other comments you would like to put in this space, somewhere else, or simply send an email, please do it. Five Weeks to a Social Library will only be successful if we all learn from each other and strive to build something better in the future.
| | | Five Weeks to a Social Library is the first free, grassroots, completely online course devoted to teaching librarians about social software and how to use it in their libraries. It was developed to provide a free, comprehensive, and social online learning opportunity for librarians who do not otherwise have access to conferences or continuing education and who would benefit greatly from learning about social software. The course will be taught using a variety of social software tools so that the participants acquire experience using the tools while they are taking part in the class. It will make use of synchronous online communication, with one or two weekly Webcasts and many small group IM chat sessions made available to participants each week. By the end of the course, each student will develop a proposal for implementing a specific social software tool in their library. |
