Facilitating Online Communites
By Trishus | August 10, 2008
I often feel that I sit on the fringe of online spaces… maybe I am shy to put my voice online … maybe I would like to pass through the world leaving no mark… maybe I feel there are so many who know so much more…. maybe I should just take a deep breath and write.
When I was the school principal of Parnngurr community school our digital presence created an amazing teaching tool. Not only did students get excited about writing and learn computer skills, it allowed them to write with a broader audience in mind. Yet the schools online presents seemed to sit alone without a community.
I would like to move beyond this stand alone complex.
I hope that participating in this informal course: Facilitating online communities will give me the knowledge and the skills to make this step.

I hear what you say about feeling like you’re on the fringes. That’s a pretty cool site.
