What I heard this morning… “ Now we can make change happen. If someone has a trusted, persistent relationship with open lines of communication, we say lets do something great.”  “ People post more publicly when they know they can post privately as well.” “… this self-aggregating, self forming community, which persists afterwards.”  “ A social FAQ manager. A doc may have a question about something, may not have time to research. A team of researchers go out and find info, synthesize results and put it back... You can see when questions submitted, which are answered/unanswered. Practitioners are using this as part of their practice. They don’t usually get the chance to get this sort of communication and support.”  “ My blog is not on Brian’s site, it’s on Blogger and not part of the institution. Marginal place to direct pot shots from. I like the fact it is not on my CV, not institutionally recognized.” “ We are here to prepare them. To think about education in a different way. In two words: GO PUBLIC.”
“ I’m totally an asynchronous multitasking person, so I have to stay focused.” “ One of the complaints I’ve heard about wikis, for a new person it looks too technical and difficult to use.” “ (How we moderate ourselves…) Kind of like a newborn baby. That consciousness is just emerging.” “ While writing the book (on wikis in education ON a wiki!) it was the 7 of us reviewing each other’s chapters. Finding the connections. Strengthened the narrative of the book. If we had written it without the wiki, it would have felt like an edited compendium vs flow. Second is the reader peer review – comments and changes. I think that combines in some ways the best ideals of the spirit of peer review and keeping the content relevant.”  “ I tap in by emphasize that posting a comment about a page, looking at the revision history before you edit is as important as the edit.  See if someone happened to have taken out what you put in. Make your edit, then make a comment about why you edited. How you acknowledge others and add your voice. Big differentiation between our work with wikis in education and wikipedia. Not anonymous Can communicate as a community.” “ Is there danger of new tools, old rules?”

Community Technology Stewardship
Community profiles as patterns of  togetherness  Community  activities   oriented to … …  meetings …  context …  community cultivation …  access to expertise …  projects …  open-ended   conversation …  content   publishing …  individual participation …  relationships In collaboration with Nancy White and John Smith © 2006 Wenger, White, and Smith

“ Technology stewards are people with enough experience of the workings of a community to understand its technology needs, and enough experience with technology to take leadership in addressing those needs…
Stewardship typically includes selecting and configuring technology, as well as supporting its use in the practice of the community.” Wenger, White and Smith, 2007
