An intensive workshop over half a day, our Building
Communities and Networks Online Level 2 course concentrates on
exploring and resolving real-life editorial and technical issues
you face in managing your online community or community of
practice (COP)...
The tutor Lizzie Jackson, who created and ran the BBC
Communities, will take the class through the major issues,
challenges and opportunities in managing an online community.
Lizzie was voted 'One of the 100 Innovators of the UK
Internet Decade' in October, 2004 by NOP World and
e-consultancy.com. The technical tutor is Will Wharfe.
Aim:
Geared to new media professionals already active in the field,
the course is designed to further enhance management and
troubleshooting capabilities deployed in the business and
practice of running an online community.
Course structure:
Attendees will supply an advance overview of key issues they
face for the tutors, alongside a strategic outline of their
community or COP's objectives, plus some information on
their audience/members. This will form the basis of the tasks
and analysis undertaken in the day's workshops.
Tailored to tackle delegates individual needs, the day's
introduction will also raise the common issues faced by group
members. Delegates will then split into two groups and each
participate in two workshops:
(1) An
editorial workshop, led by course leader Lizzie
Jackson.
(2) A
technical workshop, led by social software
maintenance expert Will Wharfe.
The two groups will then re-join for a review of the main
issues, and approaches to tackling them, raised in the day.
Future trends, regulation and additional sources of learning and
support on online social environments will also be
covered.
A full course outline and learning materials will be supplied.
Refreshments will also be included, along with an opportunity
for networking. Exclusive follow-up information will provide
delegates with an opportunity for ongoing support.
