Taxonomies Working Group - Looking for a Co-Lead

[Kerri Lemoie]

Hello to folks interested in Open Badges Taxonomies,

We are scheduled to meet this Thursday but unfortunately I have some work travels this week and can’t make it. My apologies. I realize this is the second one in a row that I’ve been unable to make and it’s caused me to pause on my availability to hold the meetings and how I still think taxonomies are a critical need for Open Badges.

Doug Belshaw made a good point in one of our calls that there are really two aspects of this work: technology and content. My focus has been on the technology and the implementation. I have on my to do list to work on an example implementation of a taxonomy extension as well as a diagram explaining how the concept of multiple taxonomies applies to the ecosystem. I will continue to work towards this. I’m wondering if someone more knowledgeable than me the realm of content and/or someone who also sees this as a critical need and has the time capacity would like to co-lead the discussions going forward. This way I can focus on planning and presenting the implementation and the conversations can continue about the best way to adapt content to the extensions. I can assist in lining up speakers working on existing frameworks who have expressed interest in applying them to Badges.

Here you will find our discussions to date:

Please drop me a line if this interest you. It’s a great opportunity to team up and engage with a fascinating group of people looking ahead for Badges.

Thanks,

Kerri

Awesome, Doug. Thank you. Will be in touch.

No meeting this week but we’ll pick up again soon.

Cheers,

Kerri

Hi Kerri,

I'd be keen to help with this. The only issue I have is that, like you, I can't make this week. Ironically enough, it's because I'm going to an event focused on Open Badges!

Let me know if I can help after that. There may be someone better-placed than me, but I'd be happy to show up and guide conversations. :)

Doug

We should talk about the CTI project whenever we meet next; seems like there is overlap in goals.

Hi Jim,

Let’s definitely talk about it. Can you fill us in and provide some resources?

Thanks,

Kerri
