Hi Folks --
One of the things I'd like to begin experimenting with at
www.peacetiles.net is "live trainings" for teachers, as well as
"simultaneous classes." The idea is to use video streaming to link
trainers to new groups, and to enable classrooms to co-host arts
education workshops. Here is a little more detail around what I am
envisioning:
- Devolve expertise to the edges. I don't want to be the only person
who "knows how to run a successful peacetiles workshop." Instead,
I'd like every experienced member in the network to be a potential
node in a virtual training network. To do this, my primary tool
would be interactive video sessions where up to a half dozen people
can interact, learning tips and tricks, while getting answers to
questions. What is the best, low cost, and cross-platform way to do
this?
- Connect classrooms realtime. As I think I mentioned earlier, one
of the major pushes of the peacetiles project this year will be to
get into classrooms as a resource. As youth explore an issues that
impacts their community, I'd like them to have access to other
communities exploring similar questions, in a different context. I
thought that having structured opportunities to share some of the
dynamics driving the issue where they live, while sharing their tile-
making experience would be alot of fun. So this is the "co-hosting"
of art education workshops. Again, I am wondering what is the best,
low cost, and cross-platform way to do this?
Many thanks!
