OSI-EDU-WG-notes-25feb2014
Agenda:
1: Text of short announcement & invitation to participate
- I didn't get too far on this yet.
- Currently opening with: Call for Participation in OSI's Working Group on Management Education: Let's work together to strengthen the quality of management amongst free/libre/open projects and portfolios, and amongst their governing organizations. We invite your collaboration towards improving the FLOW Syllabus. This is a peer-curated guide to the domains of knowledge that anyone involved in creating or maintaining Free/Libre/Open Works (FLOW). It is designed to help stakeholders to optimize value, to control costs, and to manage risk.
2: Discussion about the media of participation, and the Useful Coordination Links section http://osi.xwiki.com/bin/Projects/draft-flow-syllabus#HUsefulCoordinationLinks Two options for the primary meeting venue currently being looked at:
- http://openmeetings.apache.org/
- http://www.ekiga.org/
- others?
...Let's continue to assess, but make the decision next week.
3: Thoughts about adding a sub-section to the syllabus about the management of Open Access Journals, management of open learning initiatives, web sources quality criteria and management. The idea is that this would serve as learning content for creators/managers who want to understand the effective management of initiatives such as:
http://wikieducator.org/OERF:About
http://oeruniversitas.org/terms-of-service
... and the Governance tagged items at:
http://www.evolllution.com/category/institutional_governance/ ), but would also be our own FLOW Syllabus guidelines.
I'm thinking (and might be wrong) that this sub-section could be a useful FLOW Syllabus topic as such, not just an extension of the sub-section "Methodologies Inspiring Our Approach"

4: Is the useful? "Resource-based learning" http://www.reusability.org/read/chapters/hannafin.doc
5: Other topics?
