Share Connect Collaborate Community

The conference kicked off with a double act presentation from keynote speakers Will Richardson and Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach. Their message was about how to develop an online community. They described how the process starts with being online and sharing. This enables you to first connect with others and then begin to collaborate and eventually be part of a community of like minded people, part of a community of practice. It starts with the individual, you decide to share, to be online and then connect with others.

Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach is an interesting person and is passionate about teaching and learning. She was interviewed by Kim Hill on Radio New Zealand. There is a podcast of her interview on the Radio New Zealand website. Direct link to this file is here
