Sharing practice• Two elements of sharing practice:
– Sharing content (material, what I use)– Sharing experience (activity, what I do)
• Teaching practice highly contextualised – losing this loses value– Need to know not only what but where and why– Writing a paper is not the best way to share teaching
practice• Sharing practice effectively facilitates reuse
– telling me is not useful if I cannot act

The Planet Wikihttp://patternlanguagenetwork.myxwiki.org/
• Supports the Planet project and community in its main roles– Collecting case studies/stories– Identifying and refining patterns– Using these in new scenarios– Mapping patterns and creating a language– Pattern store and search host– Supporting the project team and project management– Document/Presentation/Information resource– Tagging and API (Linking to other systems)

Sharing within project
• All of the above plus– Google groups– Google docs– Google code
• Public – private divide?• Managing spaces – keep it simple

Embedding sharing practice• Sharing experience:
– Provide spaces: online and face to face – disciplinary teams, course teams, teaching and learning staff
– Use a simple structure (e.g. Planet process)– Value sharing practice (as you value sharing research)
• Sharing content– Support process of using repository – staff, tools (e.g.
Streamline)– Encourage sharing
• Mechanisms e.g. Persona• Rewards
– Consider licensing and IPR up front and be explicit

Embedding social technologies
• Don’t legislate – facilitate• Make use of social technologies but don’t
neglect face to face• Keep it simple• Share what works

Over to you
• How is practice shared in your institution?• What works?• How might you use social technologies to
facilitate sharing in your context? • What issues/challenges would you face?
