That sounds cool!
I’ve put my thoughts up onto the wiki: http://diymasters.wikidot.com/revolution
It seems like the right type of funding to apply for.
Talk soon?

Hello.
I think if we get the pitch right we could get some money out of this:
http://www.dius.gov.uk/skills/engaging_learners/informal_adult_learning/transformation_fund
http://www.dius.gov.uk/~/media/publications/L/learningrev_prospectus
Fancy helping me put something together for the earlybird deadline? It’s soon and I’m a bit busy but we’ve already done quite a bit of the thinking.
Questions we need to answer:
* Do we want an academic partner, and if so who?
* Do we want to give students ECTS credits, and if so how?
* How much money do we need?
* Do we want any other partners eg School of Life, Space Studios etc?
Thoughts on a postcard…

Oh cool, that ties in very nicely with some of my 100 Things!
Thanks so much for letting me come hang out at Everything HQ – talking with you gave me much more clarity about this learning path and what directions i can take it in. Although there are people in .de who are very supportive, they’re not coming from the background of knowledge and context that you and Dougald are operating in.
I’ve attached a copy of a pdf about the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) with some information about credits for informal learning highlighted. It’s possible for an institution (eg. the Open University) to award credits based on inspection of non-formal learning. Whether OU do that and in what context (already enrolled? course by course? etc) is another thing.
Have a great day and let me know what component of your Masters in Everything you’ll be doing first!
x Pippa

Hello – any progress with this? I’ve been running around but have some time to progress it tomorrow.
Also (drum roll) School of Life are officially in as supporters/partners, which means we have a central London venue. Woo! Working on Young Foundation next…

Sweet!
yep, I’ve been thinking about it a lot. My inclination is to move away from providing ECTS crediting ourselves, but to provide information about approaching any university for recognition.
I really like the idea of pairing up intergenerational learners. a young person teaches technology for example, an older person teaches um, er, making jam?
Or, and this ties in more with a beta testing thing i suggested for SoE – can SoE provide event based learning listings by postcode? eg. Sandra is teaching knintting next weekend in town in kent?
Ideally as well as being searchable, newsletterable, we’d provide a printable service to libraries / community centres so that they can put up regular posters describing learning opps / events in their area? One of the reports was very strong about using technology, but makign sure that non-technology users weren’t disadvantaged.
I’m meeting with someone until about 4.30 my time, if you’re on skype later today though?
Pippa

Hello. Meeting Dougald for a run through the funding bid in an hour, I’ll report back after that. Are you around on Skype later?
The additional thought I’ve had is that the piece that is perhaps missing is some sort of emotional/coaching support for helping people move from directed learners to self-directed learners. I think we should sell it to DIUS as a hook to engage people in personal development coaching that will help them become more independent, entrepreneurial and emotionally resilient. Probably just a matter of arranging some sort of career coaching service and action learning sets. What do you think?
Also, who posted this? http://www.ohwhataworld.de/?p=3663 Can’t see a name and I want to say thank you.
