DIAL small projects • Self identified • Time to develop • Grassroots • Problem based • Interest based • Open content communities (Culture of helping each other)
Early thoughts and common features from DIAL evaluation of pilot projects: The DIAL projects provide opportunity for personal reflections on personal roles and emerge from long-standing challenges people want to tackle, and perhaps up to now have not had the time or resources to attend to them: • Teachers’ fear of learning in public. (Online reflective practice) • Dealing with the discomfort of making curricular resources public. (Open educational resources, OER) • Anxieties relating to presenting oneself online. (Professional open/online identities)
