[peeragogy-handbook] [peeragogy] Re: The Future of The Pattern Theory, Revisited: draft submission to Fearless Change Campfire

[Contact Mr. Danoff's Teaching Laboratory]

Hi, Joe and Ray!

Looks like a fun, engaging workshop!

> Submitted!
> The Appendix is still here as an exercise to think about :-)

Kudos on submitting! In terms of the appendix, I was thinking about this:

> APPENDIX: WHAT ARE WE TRYING TO DO TODAY?
> [With regard to the things we've been working on in the Peeragogy
project, in recent months they have been clustered around these themes. Can
we check where things are at with people interested in these?
> Peeragogy Handbook — ...

Progress has been made on version 4 of the Handbook, but Ray and others
keep reminding me of Paola's idea for mini handbooks. In a production call
earlier this summer Lisa had nice ideas about mini handbooks for different
audiences, like: educators, people who work at non-profits, business
people, etc. And then later on having a mini handbook showing how all their
work is connected (which will probably surprise some of them).

To reduce the number of words, istead of a "mini handbook" would
approaching the next publication as a "Peeragogy Pamphlet" work?

It has that alliterative assonance and one definition I found via Wikipedia
fromUnited Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization is
nice:  "(b) A pamphlet is a non-periodical printed publication of at least
5 but not more than 48 pages, exclusive of the cover pages, published in a
particular country and made available to the public;"

http://portal.unesco.org/en/ev.php-URL_ID=13068&URL_DO=DO_TOPIC&URL_SECTION=201.html

I feel a cap of 48 pages would force us to be focused with each one and to
strip away everything except what's essential.

Any objections to this?

If not, I was thinking the first Pamphlet could be on patterns?

Responding to a couple more items in your emails:

> Summary of the Fearless Change patterns and/or other strategies you used
as well as the lesson(s) you learned or are learning

These make a quite lovely abridged timeline of work in these fields from
Planet Math to Peeragogy to PLoP 2021.

> Short description (3-5 sentences) of your experience with change and/or
the Fearless Change patterns
> 2. Whereas universities have been around for centuries and it's pretty
clear how they work, with online communities and peer learning, we're still
figuring it out as we go.

For this, I think it also may be interesting to explore where century old
universities overlap with novel online communities and peer learning?
