Dear friends, First of all I convey my hearty gratitude to all the WE community members who expressed genuine interest in setting up a WikiEducator community college (a community-driven initiative to provide and support training including: wiki skills, creation and use of OER, open licensing, online learning, teaching, mentoring as well as promoting research on related topics) and submitted their choices for a name to it. The response of the community was amazing - WE got 30 nominations!
The time for nominations was closed officially by the end of business on 10 May 2012. Now it is the time to choose one name for the proposed community college from the 30 wonderful nominations we have received. For this purpose a rough consensus poll page<http://wikieducator.org/WikiEducator_Community_College/Community_poll>has been setup in WikiEducator. The poll is designed in three parts to gauge opinion on the scope of the proposed initiative and preferred name for the initiative based on submissions made by the community. Section:1 Cast your vote regarding the proposed scope of the initiative Section 2 Your opinion regarding specific reference to "WikiEducator" in the proposed name for the initiative Section 3 Your preferences for naming this initiative - this is the section for casting your vote for a name. The first two section will help the voters to revisit and review the draft Overview and Objectives of the project<http://wikieducator.org/WikiEducator_Community_College> and arrive at a logical conclusion while selecting the name. *Technology related instructions*: - You will need a WikiEducator account<http://wikieducator.org/Wikieducator_rich_text_editor_tutorials/Creating_an_account/Instructions> and you must be logged in to cast your votes. - You must check the relevant options and click on the "Vote" or "Change my vote" button displayed below each option to record or change your vote. - If your login session has expired (*e.g.* no activity after a long period), you will not be able to vote or change your vote. Login to WikiEducator again. - You can change your vote at any time till the close of the poll. *Please cast your votes by the close of business on 19 May, 2012 in your time zone* * * *Visit the poll page and cast your votes* * * http://wikieducator.org/WikiEducator_Community_College/Community_poll/Poll.12.5.12 ''WE ARE OFF TO ANOTHER MILESTONE IN OPEN EDUCATION!" -- Warm regards Anil http://www.wikieducator.org/User:Anil_Prasad http://www.apletters.blogspot.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "WikiEducator" group.
