Hi Everyone,

In a recent post, Sanjaya has raised a significant challenge (and
opportunity) in WikiEducator - Increasing Collaboration.... Others I
have spoken to have also raised this....

He says:

"Not much collaboration is visible at this stage in WikiEd.
Educational institutions need to be convinced about the advantages of
Open Access and the power of Wiki."

So...I have a few questions:

* Define what your understanding of Collaboration is?
* How do we propose to measure it, and over what intervals?

At this stage of WikiEd's development, the focus has been on training
a critical mass of educators in wiki skills....but what are your
suggestions for Increasing Collaboration on WikiEducator...

Some ideas:

*  Webconferences - focusing on areas for collaboration, or in
identifying projects, people, etc.
*  Projects - where folks self-select to collaborate or appointed
(dyads are particularly powerful);
*  Wishlists - an easy way to find out what's happening in the
community, and where the collaborative needs are (specified down to
the role)
*  Bounties - to encourage collaboration through a modest financial
incentive
*  Peer recognition - i.e., non-monetary incentives
* Other:

Please share your thoughts, ideas, etc.
