1. PEERAGOGY DR. CHRISTINE B. BOYD E3tech Conference July 28-29, 2014

2. Peeragogy is a collection of techniques for collaborative learning and collaborative work. By learning how to work smart together, we hope to leave the world in a better state than it was when we arrived. 3. Rheingold is a visiting lecturer in Stanford Universitys Department of Communication where he teaches two courses, "Digital Journalism" and "Virtual Communities and Social Media". He is a lecturer in U.C. Berkeleys School of Information where he teaches "Virtual Communities and Social Media" and where he previously taught "Participatory Media/Collective Action".

With access to open educational resources and free or inexpensive communication platforms, groups of people can learn together outside as well as inside formal institutions. All of this prompted us to reconsider the meaning of peer learning. 6. If we are willing to ask for help and offer our help to others = everybodys learning escalates 7. Peeragogy is about peers learning together and teaching each other 8. The connections that make it possible for us to learn in the future are more relevant than the knowledge we hold individually in the present. 9. Peer-learning participants succeed when they are motivated to learn! 10. REFRAME THE VISION 11. EMPHASIS SHOULD ALWAYS BE ON LEARNING IN ORDER TO DO SOMETHING! 12. Daniel Pink MOTIVATION IS BASED ON 1.The urge to direct my life 2.The degree to get better at something that matters 3.The yearning to do something that serves a purpose bigger than just myself 13.

Education in the Information Age should enable learners to find, analyze, evaluate, curate, and act on the best available information. This requires new literacies and a curriculum that emphasizes mental fitness, physical fitness, spiritual fitness, civic fitness, and technological fitness. 19. They become more effective thinkers and because they are invested more caring people. Learning becomes personal. The inspiration to recreate the process for themselves and for others is the wellspring of the lifelong learner. 20.

Learning used to focus on what was in an individuals head Thirty-three years ago, three-quarters of what a worker needed to do the job was stored in his/her head; now its less than 10%. 39. E-mails great for some conversations, but for managing a project with a virtual team, its hard to beat a dedicated project management app, like Basecamp. For one, it keeps your inbox free of clutter, hosting focused discussions on a dedicated project webpage that your whole team can see. You can track your teams progress towards a goal and manage to-do lists to help your team get there on time. You can share calendars, files and collaborate on text documents too. 40. Google Drive is the new home of Google Docs, which is Googles answer to Microsoft Office. The real benefit for virtual teams is the ability to collaborate on documents in real time. You can leave comments on your teams work or chat while you work together. 41. The Nearpod platform enables teachers to use their iPads to manage content on students' iPads, iPhones, iPods or Macs. It combines presentation, collaboration, and real-time assessment tools into one integrated solution 42. When you collaborate in a virtual team, its sometimes easier to show rather than tell. Skitch is the solution in this scenario. It lets you quickly take a screen grab of what you can see on your desktop or in your web browser and annotate it with shapes, arrows, quick sketches and text. 43. Another app for show-dont-tell scenarios, join.me lets you share your screen with up to 10 other users, let them control your computer, chat and swap files. Its sort of magical how quick and easy it is to do this and its great for showing work in progress or for helping out team members with technical difficulties that are hard to explain over the phone or over e-mail. 44. Applications for Education Big Marker could be a great tool for conducting online tutoring sessions and lessons. Students working on collaborative projects could use Big Marker to brainstorm and plan for completion of their projects. As a professional development resource Big Marker could be useful for facilitating workshops online. 45. For day-to-day communication with your team, Skype is an essential app to have in your dock or taskbar. Not only does it allow you to call and video call your team members for free, its a really easy way to instant message one another and swap files directly. We use it in our team for quick conversations and to let each other know when were working and where were working, which just helps us feel like were together, even if were miles apart! 46. With Dropbox software installed on your computer, and on the computers of your team members, files are automatically updated, so everyone has the latest version, and theyre backed up too, so you wont have to worry about losing your stuff. 47. It can be easy to feel, in between hearing from your team members, that no work is being done. This is a crisis of faith that needs to be overcome, but it does take some time and, crucially, trust. In the meantime, theres iDoneThis a simple web app thats more about celebrating your teams achievements than it is about spying on whats been done. It sends an evening email reminder that everyone on your team writes a quick reply to saying what they did that day just one line per task. The next day, everyone gets a digest with what everyone else has been working on. 48. KANBANTOOL IMMERSIVE TERF 49. "Future Learning Short Documentary." YouTube. YouTube, 5 May 2012.
