Subject: [Crm-sig] Training Materials Conceptualization, Needs and
Resources Discussion
To: crm-sig <crm-sig@ics.forth.gr>


Dear all,

You will have noticed on the agenda for the upcoming CRM SIG recently sent
by Eleni Tsoulouha that a day has been set aside for a discussion centering
around didactic and training material related to the understanding and use
of CIDOC CRM.

The dedication of a day to this topic was proposed given a number of
factors:

   1. the overall topic relates regardless to several on-going issues that
   are under discussion at the SIG
   2. the on-going ISO acceptance process for CRM base version 7.2x gives
   us a chance to focus on development of material aside from the CRMbase
   specification itself
   3. this year's CIDOC conference and next will have a strong CIDOC CRM
   component and there is a keen interest in training and knowledge of how to
   use the CRM
   4. The material most clearly available to a potential learner / user of
   CRM on the website, requires an update and enrichment with much material
   that has been generated in the meantime (
   https://www.cidoc-crm.org/use_and_learn)

Therefore, it seemed an opportune moment to open up a general discussion as
to the training material for learning and applying CRM (what should this
be, who should it be aimed at, what is its scope, what resources exist
already, what resources would it be good to develop) and then also to dive
into some detail about the potential categories of didactic / training
material and how we can populate them with extant material or plan to
generate new material.

With this in mind, the following draft document was drawn up by myself:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/12tk5Gi6nAAYDQBJmOcVQvBJGaP4LqFSlGkYX_3RfbXE/edit

as a starting point for this discussion. This document is in no way to be
considered complete or final but rather a sketch to prompt a fruitful
discussion.


The proposal for the day is to start with a general discussion of what we
mean by and need for training material, starting from the document above.
This is a draft in order to spur conversation which we would hope to be
wide ranging and open. The first session of the day will open this
discussion and investigate what are the proper categories and terms for the
different elements of CRM learning. SIG members with other  / better /
different ideas are very welcome even to propose a completely different
approach.

The other sessions of the day will pull as general organizing cue from the
proposal above in order to structure more specific conversations about
different topics.

We wanted to send this document out sufficiently in advance so that those
interested in this topic are able to consider it and gather their own ideas
and proposals in turn. Also since there are many topics with different
details to invite those who specifically want to speak on a topic, training
around a particular method or software for example, to be able to propose
this as a component of the conversation.

This will hopefully be the start of an on-going and fruitful effort to
update and enrich the offer of didactic and training materials on the CRM
site with an impact of making it easier and more coherent for potential
users of CRM to appropriate the necessary knowledge to use it to their
particular purposes.

Looking forward to the dialogue.

Sincerely,

George Bruseker
