=== About the name === | |||
"Learning in the Open" is a provisional name pending selection of a final name; it replaces the original placeholder name "[[User:Msurman:ABC-Camp|ABC-Camp]]". Ideally the final name should | |||
* be evocative of the goal of the course | |||
* not use the words "course" (which is somewhat conventional) or "camp" (which is somewhat overused) | |||
* not have been previously used for other initiatives (related or otherwise) | |||
* have suitable domain names available (in case we want to have a site independent of any particular organization) | |||
* translate well into other languages (should local instructors desire to do this) | |||
Should we wish to continue the "in the open" theme, other possible candidates include "Living in the Open" and "Working in the Open". | |||
