La culture du partage

Share!

E-180 est en pleine production d’une série de podcasts sur le « hacking » de  l’éducation grâce aux nouvelles technologies, qui sera bientôt disponible sur Parole Citoyenne. Durant le montage des entrevues que nous avons menées, une évidence s’est imposée : la culture du partage fait partie intégrante de la culture web. Des mots comme « redonner, partager, archiver, contribuer » revenaient constamment  dans les propos de Yannick B. Gélinas, Marie-Julie Gagnon ou Aleece Germano, nos trois interviewées. L’effort est tellement moindre pour partager (tout est facilement embeddable, facebookable, twitterable…): de rendre public et disponible ses trouvailles, conseils, idées est sans aucun doute devenu de l’ordre du réflexe. Si Twitter en est l’exemple le plus percutant (pour ceux qui privilégient les hyperliens), des initiatives comme Creative Commons et Open Source Cinema (initiative de Brett Gaylor, l’homme derrière Rip! A Remix Manifesto)  favorisent la création dans un esprit plus communautaire.  Je parle donc du partage de connaissances devenu “valeur virtuelle”… du  partage entre les humains devant l’écran comme norme totale au sein des relations en ligne.

Je me permets de citer la très pertinente Marie-Eve Berlinger sur la culture du partage : “Tout ça pour dire qu’au delà de la pub traditionnelle et des moteurs de recherche, ce qui prime (thank God) c’est l’humain derrière et c’est lui qui réfère ce qu’il aime à travers la panoplies d’offres qu’ils trouvent sous ses yeux.”

Question: What are the best ways to leverage community expertise?

That’s basically what we are doing with this blog. Like we mentioned in a previous post, we are surrounded by great mentors and friends, who’s opinion in priceless to us. We use Twitter, we will use Facebook soon: any other ideas to get people involved and thrilled about our project?

Walking our talk

E-180 is based on the belief that education doesn’t belong to institutions: that education is a relationship allowing growth and development. We built this blog to walk our talk and to allow you to share your advices and criticisms with us, as we are working on the development of a platform that is meant to address your needs of consensual education.

We deeply believe in the incredible support of the community, and we are already grateful for all your time and commitment to keeping us on track! Now that Catherine is working hard, in collaboration with Ekorce, to develop our brand (don’t worry: the real logo will look way better than this one!!), that Dominic is fine tuning our Facebook App and that Christine has moved to a full-time position as the CEO of E-180, we are ready to shift speed.

The purpose of this blog is simple: to keep you posted on what’s up, and to ask your opinion. We have so many questions, and we know you have even more suggestions. So please, share your thoughts on everything you find on this blog: our mission, our bios, our ideas, our questions, our challenges, our successes.

We will also add a page where you can post your needs in terms of knowledge-sharing: it’s not the great platform we are building for you yet, but it’s a beginning!
