[Athen] Online Communities

[E.A. Draffan]

Sorry to be back again, but is there any way we can capture some of your
notes Pratik and those of Paul Hastings on the ATHEN wiki as I would like to
link to them all from a project I am working on at the moment?   I am sorry
if I am asking for something that is not possible and quite understand it is
a horribly busy time of year. 

I will link the notes I have from that student and the weblinks from our
project as soon as possible. 

Best wishes E.A.

Kevin,

 

I can provide some informal information.  Please let me know if there is a
specific community you campus is considering.

Kevin – 

 

Call Paul Hastings at Wheelock College in Boston – I believe he has done
some work in this area.

Athen,

 

I am interested in the accessibility of online communities including (but
not exclusively) Facebook.  I am reporting to a committee which is
evaluating implementation of online communities on campus.  I searched
through some emails and I didn’t see much discussion on this issue.  I don’t
want to recreate the wheel if online community sites have been evaluated
already.    Another question is whether people with disabilities are using
these online communities?

 

PS I am looking forward to attending the Higher Ground conference in Boulder
Colorado for the first time this year!
