Editor's Notes
- Type in dialogue box of GoToMeeting: In terms of online conferences, are you spring, summer, fall, or winter? Could have also had everyone to talk via mic. An example: let’s play spin a tale. I start with the first line of a story. Starting at the top of the names in the participants list for the meeting, each person adds one line to the story. I’ll start with: “I woke up at 9am — that was when I was supposed to Skype in for the meeting…”
- Big 5 conventional approaches: presentations, managed discussions, open discussions, status reports, brainstorm sessions. For online, conventionally watch livestream, tweet, online discussion forum.
- Open a QR code reader on your smartphone. Take a picture of the displayed image in the app; it will take you to the online site. Example of online scavenger hunt.
- Used to sage on the stage. But rather than passive listening we want active engagement and learning.
- From AEN perspective, another reason we want engagement at our conferences.
- From individual perspective: conference is about your own learning and professional development. Engagement is the first step for learning. Possibilities for social learning: “knowledge and skills are produced and disseminated through conversations and networking activities supported by communities of practice.”
- AEN as a network with potential for communities of practice (social learning through practice, and knowledge creation by collective as outcome) forming, and collaboration.
- Liberating structures
- If not attending physically in Uganda, why not get a group of people together (in organisation, in city), and connect to online platform to engage?
- Ask a question, use app/website to get responses, responses show in real time. Martin Weller’s recent inaugural lecture.
- Bonnie Stewart’s recent course on Blackboard Collaborate.
- For smaller groups. Collaborative document editors let teams write documents together in real time: Google Docs. Could use AEN priority issues (such as two themes for Evidence 2020 - evidence capacities and the arts and science of evidence use in Africa).
- From the previous AEN webinar a participant raised that we should discuss the meaning evidence. Concept map is visual organisation of knowledge; shows concepts/ideas and relationships among them. Write key words and draw arrows between them to indicate how they are related.
- For small groups. Create board, invite people, add ideas, organise ideas, can vote for ideas.
- Schank and Abelson argued that stories are our “most natural form of thought”. And stories engage us as if we are there. Record - audio or visual - yourself or group of people behind, during or after conference on topic/theme that you want to engage others on at #Evidence2020.
- Is about meaning making. Useful for reflection. Can use podcasts, slideshows, videos, animations.
- One example is like fishbowl session, but online and physical
- Could combine online and physical conversations, via, e.g., Virtual Connecting. Physical: presenters and participants at conference. Online: about ten visually online; other follow livestream and discussion could be in online discussion forums, via Twitter, etc. Is about conversation, not presentation.
- Language Could be one of position papers - how AEN to be at least bilingual.
- Data-light engagements
- Its is a process to enhance engagement, not an event. What support can and should the AEN Secretariat provide?
- Now until end of webinar [share link in chat of GoToMeeting]. But next we want to hear and read your ideas on enhancing engagement for online Evidence2020 - Siziwe to facilitate discussion.
