Hi Tim, Thanks for your note ~ I was struck by your comment an "Army of One..." From that perspective, it would certainly appear that there's more to do... than one person can handle...
In my view, WikiEducator is as much about content development (and related materials), as it is a distributed Network of community support - talent, resources and opportunity. A challenge (and opportunity) for WikiEducators is to see ourselves as an integral part of this Network - so we can do more for each other, in less time with less resources - than it would ordinarily take. It is likely more helpful to you - and us - if you could identify (from a project perspective) what has to happen this round (i.e., project tasks, dates, etc.). I think the contest/bounty idea is a sound one - of the many you've received - but maybe it could be used for a project that's farther ahead in the future.....which WikiEducators (as Ambassadors) could rally around... When I connect with my fellow WikiEducators, I recognize that we all have many forces pulling us in many directions - but we do have a unifying force....and that is the overriding objective of free educational content, AND each other. Your thoughts, feedback?

I suppose the real issue is time and capacity... I have many other tasks to take care of so I cannot spend all my time on this poster idea... yet if I do not do it then it will not get done as I am an Army of one... :( Capacity is another good one as I do not have the capacity to make my own posters nor do I have the capacity to organize others in a competition considering my time constraints... We have having a workshop on Science and Tech ed early December... I want to get some posters ready by late November... takes time to gather the resources, get the budget approved and printed in time... everything takes more time when you are in a developing nation... :) Peace Tim -- __________________________________ John "Tim" Denny, Ph.D. ICT and Education Specialist Adviser to the Cambodia MoEYS on Science and Technology Education Executive Director, PC4peace http://www.pc4peace.org http://www.avuedigitalservices.com/VR/drjtdenny Co-founder Open Schools Program - Cambodia "Honest disagreement is often a good sign of progress."
