Wow
Truely enlightened words Leigh. All that stone throwing really paid
off, eh.
Seriously. This is an amazing list, I am in full support of every
point.
And in regards to point 9. I vote for differentiating ourselves
radically from a MediaWiki Foundation model.
We do need to become very
Peter,
The news item is very impressive. 64 of grade 12 students students are
interested in collaborating with students from other countries. So far, I
managed to find a school in Washington, DC for 32 of my grade 11 students. I
would like to see a lot more high school kids on WE.
Warm wishes,
Thanks Nellie,
I look forward to the review of this project early next summer to see
how we did in relation to what we have aspired to do... So far it has
been exceeding my expectations. I certianly hope we can meet our
definition of success;
Peter,
This is a wiki. You are more than welcome to anything that my students and I
have added. You may add to it and place it or replace it, add to it, and
place it where you think it would be appropriate. I would love for someone
to finally play around with the wiki pages like they would with
Hi Nellie,
Perhaps in your comment below, there are the seeds of an idea
What if, at some point, there were a cluster of WikiEducators - who
decidedmaybe in a conference setting - to work as a group, and
collaborate on a group of pages, on a given topic, or theme
This could be
Randy,
This is how I see the wiki working. I thought we all did.

Hi Nellie,
Yes, I do too
But we have a GAP, from where we are right now - to where we want to be
A smaller, focused effort, which then reports its findings / experience to
the larger whole, might be a good way to help us to get where we want to be.

Hi Peter, I really like the spin on the wording that that journo has done:
WikiEducator looks like Wikipedia. In fact, it uses the same software. And,
like the online encyclopedia, its mission is ambitious. It seeks to put all
the world's educational materials online and make them freely
Leigh,
With all due respect, Not that I disagree with what you are saying its
just that I think you need a new pair of glasses. You seem to be
reading a lot into things and being overly pessimistic about good
works. In the big navel gazing world we live in, it is good people are
putting efforts
Hi Peter,
You said:
I challenge you to point me to something better than WE in bringing an
international set
of educators together to create a free curriculum
Now I'm worried (though I'm relieved you dance :) a free curriculum,
surely a slip of the tongue Peter?
The Internet is bringing
Oh, BTW.. I hope you're not thinking I am poo pooing the K12 project! Not at
all! In fact I have already forwarded the story onto a number of people. I
especially like the fact that it is more student generated. Just checking
that you aren't relating my highlight of a particular way of describing
Education is a set of tools we grab as needed, for our current work and
play. Starting from that (radical unschooling) position... What are things
I can be doing with our local math clubs that go beyond personal and
intra-club meanings, and toward community meanings?
Kids creating purely
Hey Peter and Leigh ,
I really like the conversation , and want to bring some of my 2 cents , and
again from Chinese perspective , I just got back from Hongkong ,
Let me start from the newspaper reading from Hongkong, In hongkong if you
have been , you take MTR a lot and they give you free
btw I received some of personal emails /invitations from WE members during
last month , I didnot have the internet access when I was at Hongkong for
my internship , I will get back to all of you ASAP , really sorry for that ,

Leigh,
I guess we are in non-violent agreement then... ah so were back to
the collaborative networky thing... so what does it take to build a
node on the network? Is WE just going through the standard lifecycle
of becoming a node?
Now, I want to see you dance!
