Is it time to rethink how we acquire knowledge at the various stages of life? Join us to discuss “Opening Education” on the Peeragogy In Action livestream/podcast Tues., January 25 at 2pm UTC-5. Any comments or questions you post on the simulcast channels, we will be able to present to our panelists.Peeragogy editorial board member Joe Corneli of Oxford Brookes University moderates the discussion with Peter Shukie, founder of Community Open Online Courses and contributor to the recent Working Class Academics conference; and David Preston, open & alternative education advocate and Peeragogy Handbook v3 contributor.Top-down instruction remains the typical model in traditional education. Teachers create subject lessons for pupils that are divided into chapters, units, and lessons. Students display their mastery via assignments, exams, essays, and projects.As David Preston writes, “Open-source education invites us to create meaningful learning experiences with students instead of for them. We all begin our lives insatiably curious about the world around us, so what can we do to reawaken that sense of delight in wondering? For years I have begun the conversation with students by reimagining the power of the question and asking them to consider one of their own.”HASHTAGS for social media: #peeragogy-in-action #peeragogy #openeducation #davidpreston #petershukie

Why do we avoid challenging or difficult conversations? What are the patterns and best practices we can draw on for positive outcomes? What do you intend to accomplish by bringing up a sensitive topic or engaging in a difficult conversation?In this episode of Peeragogy In Action, our panel will discuss how to first identify a goal when you come into such a conversation, then determine if your counterpart comes with an entrenched position. This can help to dispel anxiety about the impending interaction and promote the best outcome.Host Joe Corneli teases out patterns & best practices for productive interactions, with guests Judith Benham of Open Global Mind, and Richard Butler, DEI co-chair at US Rowing and Wellness Coordinator for the City of Pittsburgh.EPISODE LINKSPierce Press (blog post)Judith BenhamRichard ButlerJoe CorneliThe Peeragogy Project#nonviolentcommunication #conflictresolution #mediationtraining #Peeragogy

Peeragogy In Action #2"Most social media sites are designed for profit," Pete Forsyth of Wiki Strategies tells us, "and fanning the flames of division and misinformation can be profitable. Wikipedia stands apart." How is Wikipedia different? The platform is not driven by the same profit motives of YouTube, Twitter, or Facebook; in fact, its entire purpose is to enable users to evaluate good vs. bad sources of information. How can Wikipedia help us, how can we help Wikipedia, and what can be learned from Wikipedia to help other websites better serve the public good? Host Joe Corneli fields these questions for Wiki Strategies founder and longtime Wikipedia editor, Pete Forsyth and misinformation/disinformation expert, Lane Rasberry with UVA Data Science Dept.Find  more details on the podcast schedule at Pierce Press.
