“participatory learning”

I’m coming to participatory learning from just completing a PhD in Open Source Software Development, studying how to build a sequel to Wikipedia: a crowd sourced resource of learning material (rather than reference material).

Very enthusiastic about the idea of collaborative learning.

Have become involved in several related Google+ communities:

Using Google Apps as a Free LMS (learning management system – 611 members)
https://plus.google.com/communities/110147344160609001644

Online Learning Collective (101 members)
https://plus.google.com/communities/112542481102501875677

Peeragogy in Action (326 members)
https://plus.google.com/communities/107386162349686249470

along with starting Google+ communities for several MOOCs:

Academia and the MOOC
https://plus.google.com/communities/112243817982502760507

OCTEL Open Course in Technology Enhanced Learning
https://plus.google.com/communities/101382199434711534938

(and others)

and developing a platform, SlideSpeech, for web/mobile eLearning:

A MOOC called ocTEL, the Open Course in Technology Enhanced Learning, is running 4 April – 17 June 2013. If you’d like to catch up with it or sample it, this one-stop spreadsheet has a set of week-by-week teasers:
https://docs.google.com/a/slidespeech.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ap4efB86ZBGCdGxpRGtST2R4NElsTHVac2U0UXJXWlE#gid=0

The teaser presentations “tell the story” of the course using a computer voice in just a few minutes. Others have commented “The slides are good but the voice, admittedly, is annoying.” and “being able to run through a quick recap of the webinar was worth the slight irritation”.
