We know there are benefits to sharing practice *online* specifically: • Wider, national, community of support • Learn from similar projects that may be far away • Helps avoid reinventing the wheel • Helps with reflective practice (through documenting) • Can help with partnerships, influencing & advocacy A word from our editor Musical Inclusion Evaluation & Networking
A word from our editor But we know it’s not easy. So we have plans to help you, starting today, involving: • Curating: finding what can or might be shared • Themes/topics: identifying useful themes and topics • Editing: working with some of you directly to develop materials • Connecting: helping those with similarities to connect – see WLTM wall at back
Things you may have brought with you: • ONE SUGGESTION – what you’d like to see developed as a Musical Inclusion resource • ONE PRACTICE-SHARING RESOURCE – template, practice write-up, case study etc …. OR • LET US KNOW SOMETHING YOU HAVE, but may need more work A word from our editor Musical Inclusion Evaluation & Networking
The power of networks “As knowledge becomes networked, the smartest person in the room isn’t the person standing at the front lecturing us, and isn’t [even] the collective wisdom of those in the room.The smartest person in the room is the room itself: the network that joins the people and ideas in the room, and connects to those outside of it. Our task is to learn how to build smart rooms — that is, how to build networks that make us smarter.” [AND STRONGER] David Weinberger internet specialist, (Clue Train Manifesto)
