Collaborate.Collegium A New Venue for Online Collaboration Collegium alumni/ae often ask about means to keep in touch, share ideas, and have access to resources afterwards. While we’ve tried to facilitate that in a number of ways, including our website and newsletter, a number of alums have pointed out that there could be more we do in terms of social networking. Having investigated a number of applications like Facebook, we decided to launch a “Moodle” site. Moodle, similar to the Blackboard sites that some faculty use, allows for password protected access and discussion strings. We plan to use it for the following:
Moodle enables discussions that can take place in a virtual setting, but without open access to the whole world. We have created a number of possible discussion threads (teaching and pedagogy; current topics in Catholic higher education; interfaith issues on campus and in the world; faith and science; faith and the arts; faith and humanities. We are open to adding more topics, and would be grateful for some alums who want to “shepherd” any of those threads. You could add your own threads – make this a place to ask for shared syllabi, ideas for readings, etc. We’re interested in any help that will allow us to learn how to develop this resource for the benefit of all. All Collegium alumni/ae and liaisons are eligible to join. Get started at https://collaborate.collegium.org. . |
