| == Who is a non-technical person ==
| |
| | |
| * Focus is not technology but they can contribute in some way
| |
| * Never learned programming concepts
| |
| * Didn't realize Wikipedia can be edited
| |
| * Maybe used a web content management system, blog, Facebook
| |
| | |
| == What do they want ==
| |
| | |
| # to solve their problem, usually a "one of those" web site with some special requirements
| |
| # something that looks good - design is still paramount
| |
| # to learn about the participatory web
| |
| # to create reusable data?
| |
| # to have more control over their own site but keep things simple
| |
| ## usually they don't want to 'innovate,' just do what everyone else is doing
| |
| # to work with someone they trust
| |
| | |
| == What do I want ==
| |
| | |
| # promote digital literacy — filling out forms isn't it, stop treating computers as a typewriter
| |
| ## reusable data under fair terms of re-use
| |
| # get people to consider issues of site design and how to organize information
| |
| # help flatten organizations and their external relationships
| |
| # promote transparency and co-development
| |
| # grow my own skills based on relevant requirements
| |
| | |
| == Types and motivations of participants==
| |
| | |
| * Traditional '''executive''' — "everyone else is doing it," inexpensive solution
| |
| ** ideally they will participate but getting them to can be difficult
| |
| ** may be more cautious about full commitment - license, security, who can access and edit
| |
| * '''Creative group''' or '''individual''' — may be inspired but needs constant guidance
| |
| * '''Worker bee''' — tasked to use the wiki
| |
| ** may be less receptive to wiki ideals, make it straightforward

| = SMW vs Wordpress =
| |
| | |
| Compare to Wordpress — "Raskin vs Englebart," dashboard + specialized appliance model vs learning to use a computer

| |
| | |
| * '''Wordpress''' is task driven. Forms for every day tasks. Need to map MW extensions.
| |
| | |
| Every day tasks —
| |
| * Everything oriented towards content management around blogging
| |
| * SEO, user management
| |
| * "Delete" content, one click

| * Tangly mess
| |
| * Misunderstood requirements, not really listening to what they want

| = Success=
| |
| | |
| In order:
| |
| | |
| # Useful read-only resource
| |
| # basic editing using forms
| |
| # wiki markup
| |
| # sharing knowledge, creating more converts
| |
| # Creating templates
| |
| # Creating queries
| |
| # Adjusting classes
| |
| # Creating classes
| |
| # understanding of good schema design, distributed data, licensing
| |
| # distributed applications, creating standards
| |
| | |
| = How =
| |
| | |
| Identify groups, strategies
| |
| | |
| Threaten - others are doing it, loss of leadership
| |
| | |
| Inspire - self empowerment, less dependence, creating, leading, "where the web is going"
| |
| | |
| Lots and lots of guiding
| |
| | |
| Appoint leads based on interests, give them responsibilities
| |
| | |
| Peer helpers - spread the virus
| |
| | |
| Translators
| |
| | |
| Profles of uses
| |
| | |
| The importance of design
| |
| * promote the cues of Wikipedia but provide something original
| |
| | |
| Exhibit example of copying and pasting to excel using semantic web data
