Outline
• Background: why we did
• What we did
• What we learned
• Where we are going from here
![Page 3: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Emerge was an innovative, 28 month, user-centred, investigation-led, project, funded by the JISC and guided by the principles of appreciative inquiry..
The aim is to support the formation of an "effective and sustainable community of practice” around the Users and Innovation Development Model, using Web2.0 technologies (def 1, def 2).
Emerge is the support project for the JISC Capital Programme, Users and Innovation strand

Educational R&D
• Outputs or outcomes?• Producing artefacts or building capacity?• Quantitative or qualitative measures?• Easy answers or the deep complexity of
institutional change?
Through the U&I Programme a real effort has been made to transform practice based on the needs of
individual users working in institutions
![Page 5: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Developing projects in a context where there is
awareness of the wider activity in a field and an
understanding of the alignments and gaps in that field
will lead to better projects being developed.
By using community development processes and social
networking the general quality of educational (learning)
technology development projects may be improved,
bringing benefits not just to the JISC but more widely to
all sectoral funding agencies and stakeholders.
Working hypotheses
![Page 6: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Self-selected (autonomous, self-directed) individuals build networks to meet broader social objectives beyond the ‘daily-me’ ...Networked individuals can move across, undermine, and transgress boundaries of existing institutions. This provides the basis for pro-social networks: neither personal nor institutional.
These self-selected, internet enabled, networked individuals often break from existing organisational or institutional networks that are themselves being transformed in Internet space... The ability that the Internet affords individuals to network beyond institutional arenas reinforces communicative power.(Dutton 2008, 5th Estate, 5-6 my paraphrase)
A Connected Commons

A model of software development
adapted to community development
transformative, investigative approach
Where we started
![Page 8: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Phases
1 Community formation
• Support to understand processes of user engagement,
undertake user engagement activities, and work through
a peer review process
2 Project support
• using community development processes and social
networking
3 Benefits realisation
• to widen the impact of the projects, build capacity ,
synthesise knowledge, experience and outputs
![Page 9: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Radical, user-centred, Freirian approach to
community formation
activities authentic to the participants’ cultural context
… participants in the proto-projects, projects and the community of practice are themselves a user group working in a user centred environment, modelling the user engagement development cycle and applying asset-based community development processes
It is an actor network, not a software platform or an institution

For individuals and projects• professional development/capacity building
• Stimulated & facilitated collaboration
• Improved project planning and management
• Awareness of the relevance of projects in a wider context
Benefits an effective support system
![Page 16: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Visibility, connectivity and discovery? • Or… obscurity, isolation and at times wandering lost.
• The form and patterns of interaction, which develop across a community over time, cannot be predetermined
• The use of participatory social media is multi-modal • The articulation between people and software is not just a
question of interface design (though that is crucial)• The effective use of Web2.0 depends essentially on
human networks.
Benefits unevenly distributed
![Page 17: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
For institutions• to what extent are they comfortable with ceding
certain amounts of control to individuals? • to what extent are they, as established communities,
willing to cede control to new communities?
For individuals• the principal issue is to what extent do they
subordinate their autonomy and self-direction to any community?
• And, then how much do they subordinate and to which communities?
Questionsinclusion, exclusion and identity
![Page 18: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Conditions for success
• Bounded openness• Enough difference• Semi-stability• Adaptable model• Shared repertoire • Structured freedom• Multimodal identity• Serious fun
• Multiple• Contextualised• Relative
There had to be affective advantage to affiliation. Of course there were also those who though that if it wasn't hurting, it wasn't working.

The Future of Emerge
![Page 20: The Emerge Show02 Ng Ti P](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070301/54596893af79594f558b55ef/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Future of Emerge
• User-centred social learning media hub where networks of networks of individuals: the human internet, the connected commons, is made visible to participants and the wider community
• Amplifying outputs, connections, impact – presence – of
professionals interested in ELT for, e.g.:o Learning & teachingo Research with … and intoo Community engagemento Administration (MIAP, LLL Records, etc)o Blended, pervaded, physical, virtual and mobile learning
spaceso “Green” ICTo User engagement
• Modelling and supporting effective use of ELT
