Dear all,

We are working on a draft report of our conversation of the past weeks, and expect to have it to you soon.  

One of the uses of a visual map is communication and the importance of having tools for communication lay behind the planned discussion. It made sense to ask the Communicate OER project to be involved in the preparation of the weekly summaries. Sara prepared the summaries, and Pete followed the conversation and put his hand in too. It has proved to be a nice synergy.

You might want to connect with this important project - see Pete's message below for details. 

My best,

Susan

Dear Susan and all,
Thank you for hosting the excellent OER Mapping discussion. It has been a pleasure to follow along.

I hope the participants will bring their energy to Communicate OER. This project is well aligned with the Mapping initiative, and is a great place for people seeking to discuss and resolve issues around OER and openness in education. Our focus is making sure Wikipedia articles relating to OER are accurate, useful, and up to date.

You had many knowledgeable people engaged in discussion. Those discussions included the kind of knowledge that should be reflected in Wikipedia articles. There is so much knowledge in this community that is difficult for a newcomer to access. By working together to improve Wikipedia articles, which are viewed hundreds or thousands of times per month, we are beginning to address that disconnect. Newcomers are always welcome in our project!

As the new year begins, we hope people from your discussion will join our team, participate in our weekly Edit Days, and/or join our online course under development in the School of Open. Joining our email list ( http://j.mp/CommOERemail ) is the best first step to stay in the loop! People can learn more about the project, and join our team, by visiting our Wikipedia page ( http://enwp.org/WP:COMMOER ).


Best,
-Pete
