Disruptive Technologies talk:Community Portal

Paul Oh and Karen McComas revised this wiki after it was begun by participants in the 2005 Tech Matters Institute for Technology Liaisons of the National Writing Project.

Karen changed the name of the wiki from “National Writing Project” to “Disruptive Technologies” to reflect the first purpose of the wiki, which was to provide Technology Liaisons (TL) with an experimental space within which they were able to “play" - with the thought that they might then go back to their sites and do site-related work with wikis — should the TL and the site leadership choose to do so — or personal work with the wikis.

Paul Oh also removed the links to local Writing Project sites that had been created by the 2005 Tech Matters participants on this community portal page.

In an e-mail to all Tech Matters 2005 participants, Paul Oh expressed the opinion that:
 * "online representation of a site really should be the result of collaborative conversations among site leaders. So, before putting up links to those pages again," Paul Oh asked Technology Liaisons "to ensure that any representation of your site in this wiki space reflects the overall technology plan agreed upon by your site leadership team (of which you’re an integral part). I also ask that each of you, prior to linking to your site page from the community portal, please inform your site leadership team as to the nature of a wiki (i.e., that any individual visiting a wiki has the ability to edit and revise any page.)"

Paul Oh also reminded TL's that they could "choose to experiment personally with the Disruptive Technologies wiki as much as [they would] like."
