Friday, Feb. 26 2010: TLT Group FridayLive! Online Communities - What's Happe-NING 2 Years Later


Friday, February 26 at 2:00 pm ET
Presenters: Bonnie Mullinix, TLT Group, Scott Simkins, NC A&T, and Ning SoTL Community
The TLT Group started using Ning back in February 22, 2008* for it's community building and conversation-promoting features. We have found that this platform is easy to manage and allows for asynchronous threaded discussion, attaching documents and rss/email notification. We will talk about our experiences and share and compare with others who have been experimenting with this free, easily accessible social networking tool for community building. Scott Simkins of NC A&T will share how this has been used to support a Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Community (with over 150 members exchanging ideas and materials). We will discuss the possibilities and the challenges associated with establishing, promoting and maintaining such cross-institutional communities.
