* '''Play-testable; not need to get it all right in the beginning''': These principles and rules should be work in progress and seen as such. There is no need to be overly concerned with getting them right if they will continuously be reworked and refined. More important to focus on the work itself, and getting to a set of principles that allow the work and objectives to be done. We expect these principles and rules to be more functional after a year of experimentation.

* '''Collaboration across community assets''': empowering individuals and organisations to mobilise others operating in their sector, overcoming artificial boundaries (VWO, NGO, social enterprise, self-help groups, cooperatives, faith-based organisations etc) and competition as the only viable operating principle.

Revision as of 03:20, 10 January 2019

Purpose

Sharing and mutual support for service learning offices from different Institutes of Higher Learning

Objectives

  • Peer exchange, learning and collaboration among partners
  • Collectively understanding information and resources useful for service learning practitioners

Products of the COP and Its Uses

  1. Knowledge Work: Take stock of information and updating the knowledge base through Wiki Pages
    • Collective understanding of the sector is more comprehensive and robust than individual vantage points by themselves
    • Information on needs, community resources and gaps allows strategic planning for partners' own organisations, in response to and coordination with other organisations
    • Partners will get user ids that allow them to directly edit the wiki pages if they want to. This allows the wiki pages to be constantly updated with new information partners think will be pertinent to share with one another.
  2. Collaboration Among Partners
    • Partners have access to one another's contact information, possibly start a LISTSERV or other modes of communication among partners
    • Partners can share resources and collaborate on projects without the need to rely on a central authority (e.g. joint research projects, collective fund-raising, sharing venues or pooling manpower etc)
