Book reading workshop
November 9 - December 4
Online reading workshop
Read with peers and discuss with the authors
4 weeks | November 9 – December 4
Two sessions per week + reading
A collective reading of our new book:
Learning to make a difference:
value creation in social learning spaces
Workshop overview:
By November, our new book will be fresh off the press. In this workshop, we’ll read the book together and discuss the main ideas of each section, including: how to put the ideas into practice, how to translate them into a language that will be understood in your own context, or how to use the book as part of a course.
Workshop outline:
The workshop is a mix of synchronous conversations (e.g., on Zoom) and asynchronous (e.g., in a discussion forum). We’ll work as a whole group, in small groups, and on our own.
The workshop runs over 4 weeks. We hold two 90-minutes synchronous discussions each week with the whole group. Between an introductory session at the start and a reflection sesssion at the end, each session covers one of the six sections of the book:
Introduction:
-
- Who is here? What is the story behind this book?
Foundation:
-
- The concept of social learning space: definition and significance
- The perspective of value creation and agency: four social learning modes
The value-creation framework in the four learning modes:
-
- Generating value: eight value-creation cycles
- Translating value: flows, loops, and value-creation stories
- Framing value creation: aspirations and uncertainties
- Evaluating social learning: accounting for effects and contribution
Reflection:
-
- What is the significance of this book? What can we do with it? Next steps.
You commitment is to join the whole-group discussions and to read the relevant section beforehand. Participation in small-group discussions is encouraged but self-managed.
