BECOMING A FACILITATOR. We believe that if you can do it, you can teach it. Which is why these materials are meant to encourage and facilitate peer-to-peer approaches to education. If you want to share what you know, what we suggest is that you choose a few tasks from different levels to gauge the levels of experience and expertise on the group you are working with, then choose a entire set of tasks appropriate to the group depending on your workshop focus. Encourage people to work in groups and share outcomes.
BECOMING A COMMUNITY MEMBER. Part of why we like open video tools is that they are made by real people involved in communities of sharing. With free and open source software, you know who wrote the code. Most open video tools have their own support fora where users like yourself post questions and exchange experiences with other users and developers. User feedback provides developers with key information.
BECOMING A CONTRIBUTOR. The best way to teach may be to design your own tasks. We suggest you follow a few principles when you design a new task (which we hope you will add to this online course). If you want to introduce a new tool, find a case study that shows why the tool is exciting and worth exploring. Select one of the functionalities of the tool and create a specific task that can be accomplished by using that functionality. Try to gauge the level of complexity of the task (core, explore, command) and tag the tasks accordingly.
