Invitation

I am continuing to explore the possibilities of using technology, and have yet to find any real stimulus to engage participants. My novice group has not yet really done any interaction on my wikisite, which is protected so that only the 6 of us can view content. I had hoped that this more secure on-line forum would help to foster some collaboration and sharing, but it has not. Having started my experiment on FaceBook, it was evident that this was not the right platform for the group to share experiences,  frustrations, etc, and that was why I started the private wikisite. The 5 participants are signed up, but have yet to participate! So, I would like to trial using this blog, and invite others to comment and share. I would like to invite colleagues and peers, as well as my classmates in the MGHIHP program to post on this blog. I am interested in seeing if opening up the forum to a wider group will stimulate interaction, and potentially start a "community of practice" for collaboration, support, and sharing of knowledge. Let's see where this goes..... Sue C.

  1. Hey Sue!
    Blogs can be a fun way to interact with people, but require frequent posts of interesting things to keep the readers going. Give them something to comment on and see where it goes. Also, not everyone likes to comment, but that doesn't mean they aren't reading it.
    Best of luck!
