Rejected from CLS 2018. This was our collective reflection on the Distributed Roadmap after a few years. Even though it wasn’t accepted to CLS, it’s still useful as an internal project document, and we could make use of it as we revise the pattern catalogue.

Anticipation conference dialogue: Script for Oslo. This is part of our outreach strategy, and we have one more run-through planned for 6th of October to hone our approach. The earlier draft of the document available here in the submitted version, along with a few more notes.

[working title was: Peeragogy’s Greatest Flops (2012-2018).] https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EW_spwnA-hJSf6yiRGKhpe6JwfHCNENu0mj1SPc8dtA/edit#

or possibly some of the contributors to the Crowdmath project would like to write a retrospective? Slightly different but a related topic: Maybe also we should get back to Maria Druchovia, who was talking about “Peer Making” in her project.

We heard from these guys recently, he’d like to do a weekday meeting to discuss. UPDATE: We did several of these, also together with Grif Peterson. They are definitely interested to contribute something for v4.

and Sagarika? (Do they work together?) Possibly Miriam Corneli would be interested, maybe working together with Sagun.[l] with in the English language teaching world. Perhaps we could form a “panel” to discuss various issues in Nepal ranging from English to dogs to climate and so on.

I think it would be nice to update the author biographies to explain how we’re using peeragogy in our work, what’s changed since the project began, etc.

Special request, if she has time to write up a perspective on the experience!

https://hilt.harvard.edu/news-and-events/annual-conference/2019-conference-program/ and https://hilt.harvard.edu/news-and-events/annual-conference/2019-conference-breakout-sessions/ -- likely source of contacts. Charlotte has been to the event and done some in-person wrangling. Follow-up with Experimental College planned.

Expressed interest in writing up tips from about book groups and meetups; Roland could write about about the online book group. We should definitely include some links to whatever traces are left from Roland et al. working on The Virtual Community 2019. We might want to help work on the behind the scenes stuff. Let’s invite Roland along to one of these meetings and see how we could be helpful?

(Of course anyone can get a copy for free in HTML or PDF format. We should add an inexpensive EPUB version!) Each of us could probably sell 10 copies if we tried hard…? Promote it to teachers who would promote it to students Figure out where libraries look to get books to buy Get a book review in some journal(s), T.H.E. would be pretty awesome. Bring it to local bookstores and ask them to stock it. Once we have mastered the above, figure out how to do that 1000 times, and get on NYT best sellers list.

Charlotte has explained some of this in the September 8th meeting. We could learn this by setting up our own podcast, using Charlotte’s rowing and publishing podcasts? We already have some raw materials. We could do a little podcast pilot, and send it around to people and see what they would find valuable. Could we dredge through the Google+ things and spam it out to them. Maybe it could be a format, like with a special guest.

Or, have a podcast about a given theme, for example, people with different experiences will go. “Ray and Roland talking about Reading Groups”. Then we could try and recruit special guests. And if we made a podcast for each individual chapter, we could double that with editing. (E.g., Charlotte and Robert working on patterns.)

“Oh, and for each chapter there is a corresponding podcast. This would be something that you could use to help you get started with the conversations. This could give people a head start.”

We also talked about hooking an initial 13-episode run to our course outline.

Crowdfunding could also be covered here. Or, pick some other financial target: How to organize a conference with 100 attendees? Or similar, and then pursue it. There’s a start here by Charles Blass. Decentralized production tasks sound pretty interesting! Here http://www.pearltrees.com/t/fundraising/crowdfunding/id3054164 is the collection mentioned on the reading group call 20191105.

(Charles’s research of several years in surveying and organizing the crowdfunding space beginning in 2011 - collection curated actively for 3-4 years - the structure and categories will be useful for us (the sections on regulations are out of date though - as is the futile attempt even at the time to track all CF platforms in all categories). A decent stab was made. More notes and ideas shared in the Peeragogy channel on Keybase.)

Or others from P2P Foundation / Ecuador?

In particular, the “U Theory” used in presencing is common to both Social Labs and Social Presencing Theatre. Joe has proposed that methods from religious studies could be used to zoom in on the things that are unique to peeragogy. That seems worthwhile. Previous conversations with Martina Schroedl in Minneapolis gave us the term “defining difference”.

Now that we’ve learned a little more about online groups like MetaCAugs, OGM, and CICOLab, it should become a bit easier to think about what’s distinctive about peeragogy.
