Notes on what we're beginning to organise, by way of making Aliss a community-driven service. Early thoughts about social processes, mediated via friendly community-facing institutions who do this sort of thing as their core businesses, etc.

What sort of mechanisms to try & use?

• Games?

• Prizes?

• Other incentives?

• Learning?

Page 9: Striving For Mass Participation

Why a learning-oriented approach?

Aliss and the Curriculum for Excellence

Learning contexts & activities, variants on themes as approp. to different ages & stages, etc.

Potential CfE Touchpoint(s): Experiences & Outcomes

Possible Aliss-related Activity

Compile group project folder – resources found, research validity, develop organisational skills and responsibilities/roles within group.

Discuss/research validity of info - speak to local community centres/church halls hosting classes

Orienteering – map building exercises, create sense of local area – where is nearest community centre?

Bring into art lesson/IT design

Research notes – how

difficult was info to find?

When participating in a collaborative enterprise activity, I can develop administrative and entrepreneurial skills which contribute to the success of the activity.TCH 3-07a

I can explain how the needs of a group in my local community are supported.SOC 2-16a

By exploring my local community, I have discovered the different roles people play and how they can help.SOC 0-16a

Through activities in my local area, I have developed my mental map and sense of place. I can create and use maps of the area.SOC 1-14a

Go out and find various resources locally – make a note/photo what you find.

How might such activities map onto Aliss’ ICT eco-system?

• Data capture?– Web crawler instructions– Manual data capture

• A variety of routes

• Sense-making?

• Data re-presentation?

Sense-making

And ‘Science behind the news’-style semantic mark-up

Try a mental ‘search & replace’ of ‘transport’ with ‘condition management class’?

This working model was built in less than 48 hours…by a team of enthusiasts

Pop-up in clinical systems, support NHS24 call-handling, appear in directories, etc??

Some questions

• Will these approaches work?

• Will they scale?

• How can they be applied and developed further?

• Are there other Aliss-processes that can be ‘mass-participated’?
