Build It So They Will Come
Webcast: Wednesday, April 21st, 2010 (3pm PST)
This webcast is a spotlight session for a British Columbia ministry dealing with social engagement.
The presentation will focus on events and activities that create engagement and motivate participation in online environments. Paul Stacey and Sylvia Currie from BCCampus will talk about:
1. SCoPE http://scope.bccampus.ca
SCoPE was launched in fall, 2005 to bring together individuals who share an interest in educational research and practice and to offer opportunities for dialogue across disciplines, geographical borders, professions, levels of expertise, and educational sectors. With this very broad mandate, flexible tools, and an open mind about how to proceed, the members have shaped this online community into a vibrant meeting place for dialogue, collaboration, and sharing. The core activity in SCoPE is scheduled seminar discussions facilitated by volunteers. We also host special interest groups (SIGs) by request, online conferences, and special projects as they emerge. Ideas for seminar discussion topics and other SCoPE activities come from our members.
2. Dare2BDigital http://event.dare2bdigital.ca
Dare2BDigital combines open house, social networking, and reality show game concepts to create an online educational technology showcase that highlights:
- online programs & courses representative of what is happening across BC public post-secondary institutions
- what really good educational technology supported courses and programs look like
- people who are using educational technology and their success stories
- processes and methods of development and implementation
- the modeling of, and uses for, new technologies
Dare2BDigital won a Western Cooperative for Educational Telecommunications (WCET) Outstanding Work (WOW) Award, an international competition that recognizes the innovative uses of educational technologies in higher education.
