Notes

Comments from Mark Surman prior to the call:

  1. Framing of the course was compelling and brought interesting people.
  2. Delivery was chaotic (in good first course way), with good content in bits but I think a bit hard to follow as overall narrative.
  3. Would do something with this mix of topics again, but worth thinking through how to deliver better. Probably: simplify, simplify, simplify.
  4. Joi Ito has indicated interest in doing mix of course / unconferences that people can run locally on similar mix of topics to our course --> not just for education, but on open web, content, methodology.
  5. Interested to know if FLACSO people plan to do a spanish version of the course based on what we've done so far.
  6. Would be good to get a survey of what blueprint threads we still need to follow up.
