We both have to thank James Farmer (the owner of Edublogs) who decided to employ me which gives me increased time to help others. He is the one who deserves the high five.

Simon and I have come up with alternatives to match our situation but time will depend if we use them. @Emma Thanks for completing the survey. If I had to design it again I would definitely make changes. Would you like me to send you a copy of the raw data so far? Currently 196 responses. I'm not a great Ning fan. I find them too cluttered and hard to engage people unless you have the large numbers of members like Classroom 2.0 or you faciliate them well. Definitely for some new people Nings work well because they feel more inviting. @Poulingail Our biggest challenge is the wide diversity in the group. It definitely is a good idea however in the one I'm doing tomorrow there will be 300 people present. I'm hoping to have lots of conversations happening with the participants. @Murcha It doesn’t but the questions don’t quite fit the VET environment so most of the people would struggle to relate to them.

Direct them to sit in a circle. While holding on to the end of the yarn, the first person will toss the ball to someone else and tell the group how they are connected to that person and what that person has been able to do for them to help them do their job. That person holds onto the yarn and tosses the ball to someone else in their group. It creates a spider web and everyone can see how being connected to two people opens them up to a larger group of connections, their network.

Like Sarah, I couldn't get into it initially; one of my spam filters blocks surveymaster for some reason, so I had to delete my "hosts" file in C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc (it's ok, it regenerates next time I boot up!) Like David, I also wanted to use "n/a" more than once, so you'll be getting an email with my alterations! One thing that I would say is that *personally* I don't like Ning, and never use it if I can possibly help it. (Mostly because of the 'siloisation' & having to login everytime I move between communities.) However, I did include it in the list of things I'd recommend to others, as I know that many find it very useful. Hi Sue

They have quite a 'hook' to them. One I might ask is what will learning spaces look like in 15 years time. Sue, does it matter that you use Cheryl’s questions. They have quite a ‘hook’ to them.
