"This is really interesting. You managed to find some great web sites. I think people can take the guided tour and follow your own path, but it seems to me we still need to find ways to motivate them to take this journey, and provide discussion…"

TrailMeme of Tutor Mentor Connection - possibilities for Surrey

Hi Everyone,I am from Surrey, UK (just south of London) and I am trying to connect volunteers interested in supporting tutor / mentoring programs over here. I have started to meet with people from university, community learning, business colleagues and they often would like to know more. I first came across Tutor / Mentor Connection on PLENK2010 and found this great tool called TrailMeme. So I have…See More

At 5:26pm on December 28, 2010, Daniel Bassill said…: Hi Nicola.

I don't know Tessy but hope you introduce her to the group. One goal I have from the Social Network Analysis group is to be able to show who is in my network so that others can know who I know, or have connected to over the past 18 years. Without this it's almost impossible to recall at any given time who all these people are.

The names I sent you yesterday were just the result of me going through one set of links on the http://www.tutormentorconnection.org site. If I went through all of the links I probably would be able to point out several more UK people that would be valuable for you to connect with.

I don't have the time to do this, or the manpower for the SNA project, but it could be something taken on by volunteers or interns from one or more universities.

I posted a blog article today showing OHATS growth over the past 10 years and included the video you're working on in it. Thank you.

I havethis link on the T/MC site. It has not been updated in a couple of years so I'm not sure where she is blogging now

At 3:37pm on December 27, 2010, Daniel Bassill said…: Hi Nicola,

I'm browsing some of the links I host on the T/MC site and one is the YouthNet in the UK. I encourage you to include them in your research because you probably can borrow from many of their ideas and perhaps create a link that connects them to us.

At 5:43pm on November 23, 2010, Daniel Bassill said…: Thanks for joining. I hope you'll help build interaction and collaboration on the platform. There's a section dedicated to OHATS where we discuss the meaning of each metric and talk about resources needed.
