Museum 2.0

FEBRUARY 5, 2008

But last year, over Thanksgiving, I sat next to a man who was working on his laptop (not an activity that invites conversation), creating a presentation on elementary education and technology. A former superintendent of such a district, he explained the basic premise to me: each student, from kindergarten on, has a personal laptop.

The session will be very hands-on, participants will be encouraged to their cameras, laptops, and clips. Here's the initial description and feedback so far: The Flickr for Nonprofits Affinity group will meet in Washington, DC to share experiences, tips, and ideas about how Flickr can be used to support nonprofits and their programs.

Museum 2.0

I've written before about techniques for talking to strangers, looking at how buttons , buses , and dogs and can all be tools for participatory design. I used that instruction recently to kick off a meeting at a museum planning a participatory education space. These activities are not always grounds for participatory encounters.
