• 3 types of badges

STORIFY TIMELINE

CARTOONS

... and share them with each other ...

•  Ask yourself, “What do I want to help people DO?” versus “What do I think people should know or learn?”

•  Example 1: I want to help teachers find free, useful resources online.

•  Example 2: I want to help filmmakers find music for their videos.

SOO tip #2: What do I want to help people DO?�

•  How can open content, tools, or processes help people do what they do better?

•  Is there a specific aspect or mechanism keeping people from doing things with open tools?

SOO tip #3: How can open help?�

•  Do openly licensed resources already exist that your peers can use in their projects?

•  Do openly licensed resources already exist that you can use to explain/teach about your topic?

SOO tip #4: What can they reuse & build on?�

•  Think about the course from the learner’s standpoint. Who will be taking the course? (reference your user scenario)

• What questions is s/he likely to ask? • What problem(s) have is s/he trying to solve?

SOO tip #5: Put yourself in their shoes.�
