Building an online community
What could be done with Ning?1. Discuss: “What are the PHS virtues?” What character traits are rewarded, honored and sought by this school system?
2. Discuss: Is PHS a community? For it to be closer to the-world-as-you-would-like-it-to-be, what virtues would have to be practiced more?
- What informal speech codes might need to be followed?
- What principles would people need to choose?
- Can you think of a true story that illustrates the sort of behavior you admire?
- Could you design a “new tradition” that enacts the character type you to be more common?
3. Discuss: Are there ways we could use writing, photography and video to make those virtues more visible? To make them more attractive?
