Peeragogy Progress PAR 9 (2020-08-02)

intention-review

As course co-coordinators we expected to learn more about how to run a course in peeragogy We expected the participants to learn more peer learning and peer production Develop a “product” or focus for peeragogy, “what does it do?” Participants and co-coordinators figure out “What’s in it for me?” with peeragogy and the course itself

what-happened

HOW: Video conferencing – allows for global participation Open source ethos – Hermano Cintra Business orientation – Vitor Bruno Get practical/aka no mo’ navel gazing – Charlotte Pierce Building the syllabus taught me how to make a Markdown document in GitHub – Charlie Danoff

what-happened-perspectives

I felt like we made a lot of great memories and co-created some wonderful learning moments – Charlie Danoff Gave some structure to my day/week – Charlotte Pierce Unlike other meetings, I never dreaded these

learnings-changes

Accept “newcomers” – Hermano Cintra, Vitor Bruno We weren’t always “prepared” :-o We “kept going” Organized on calendar (session 6/8, etc.) Decided on one place to take notes – in this case it was the Zoom chat Use of other platforms does not need to be disruptive. But it does help to have a central one that others feed into. Synchronizing different apps and platforms remains an ongoing challenge.

what-else-should-change-going-forward

Develop system to encourage participation Maybe circulate agenda/outline for comment a few days before course session Develop system for “getting the word out” and onboarding if it brings in new people Map out a better definition of the course – along the lines of Joe’s for Tufts pilot Update Rheingoldian meeting roles to have “primary” ones that should be filled first and “nice to have” Update the Peeragogical Action Review to account for use during an activity itself or after its completed
