What’s a Roundtable Discussion?

A roundtable is a peer-learning event where the participants are both teachers and learners. A roundtable is small enough to emphasize interactive learning, led by a facilitator and peer, includes participants who have an affinity with each other, and does not include a strong agenda beyond sharing knowledge. The participants set the agenda, and interaction among participants takes precedent over presentation by “experts.” In fact, in one-way or another, most of the roundtable participants are already experts. In this group, we intend to learn from each other about how to better resource, equip, and train ministries in the areas of computer hardware, networking, server support, web services/sites, telecom services, etc. It will be geeky and fun.

Still Learning to Blog

April 19th, 2008

I guess its my learning to blog, I don’t always think to blog about everything I write.  I continue to learn there is more of an audience for my content than I think.

I recently have been attempting to connect with Central Illinois Church IT Professionals to plan a CI RoundTable on June 12th.  After sending out several emails to area churches, Tony Dye mentioned to me that Bobby Stewart is also trying to make those connections in the Brentwood, Tennessee area.  Tony  asked if Bobby could see the content of my email.  Of course I said anyone could use the content… and then its became blog post on Tony’s Blog… I just don’t think about anyone using this type of content but Tony is the wiser Patriarch of CITRT he thinks of these things… I think its cool that someone can reuse my content…

If you too are trying to connect with your peers in your area and you would like to share how you have done so, please post your thoughts in the comments.

How do you filter what is blog worthy and what isn’t?
