• Commons Project. Status of the Art
Pre-emptive expectations,Refinements of quest
CommonS: Pre-emptive expectations
• What we were expecting from this project?– Learn and use the art of reusing OER– Learn and apply theories and methods to exploit
how “community of practice” can works for learning
– Lear and apply how the traditional flow of teaching / learning could be reversed / flipped
– Learn and apply how to adapt the role of mentors in the cyber-social age (and
CommonS: Updated expectations
• What we are expecting now?• This is perhaps different for everyone of us. • It depends on how much each of us keep on
exploring / struggling with literature, innovation, technology literacy
CommonS: Implemenation and Refinements
• How the project implementation up today changed our expectations, and what is the rationale for updating our goals?– we, at Sapienza team (let me speak now also for Giuseppe,
Marco, Stefania; if I am a bad interpreter they will correct me), we believe that• We can use the platform in its refined, last version for our educational
activities• We can convince and gather other professors / mentors / tutors to
operate with CommonSpaces• We are closer to reach an interesting point of “sustainability” of our
community• We can reach a ready to market point in one/two years
CommonS: Implemenation and Refinements
• How the project implementation up today changed our expectations, and what is the rationale for updating our goals?– what are your convincement about the xCommonS system?
• Do you think the platform, once it will be refined, could be useful for some of your educational activities?
• If so, what kind of usage do you plan to do with it? • Do you also think we are closer to reach a point of “sustainability”
for our community?• How long we have to work yet to reach a “ready to market”
service, something able to be sustainable?
CommonS: Tangible goals
• We expect to have a “system”, not only a platform, made up of ideas, software tools, models of practices and communities– We expect to have a refinements of the “system”– We’d like to reach tangible goals, like being able to
use the CommonS ecosystem in our daily activity – Like being able to cooperate and federate with
other, bigger, groups and communities that we discovered through our activity in CommonS
CommonS: reasonable, sensible, dreams
• We expect to better define the core business of the “CommonS echo-system”. How?– We expect to define what makes “us” a team eligible to
sustain xCommonS “system” in the next 3-5 years– We’d like to reach medium terms goals, like being able to play
as actors in the starting market of interoperable credits assessments”
– Like being able to sell through CommonSpaces or beside CommonSpaces and ecosystem, but in a much larger scale our competencies in a way that the project could find its sustainability (like we have bee saying so many times now)

CommonS: present and future new resources to reach
these goals
• We need more resources (funding, braines,structures) to reach a better definition of the services we want to provide. How?– We have been talking with you in March, here, of
the opportunity to participate to an Horizon ICT-22 call, with a project named Up2U
CommonS: present and future new resources to
reach these objectives • We need more resources (funding,
braines,structures) to reach a better definition of the services we want to provide. How?– Late in July we have been notified that the Up2U
project has been selected and funded with 5M Eu
CommonS: present and future’s new resources to reach
these objectives • We need more resources (funding,
braines,structures) to reach a better definition of the services we want to provide. How?– Ideas founding the Up2U proposal are mostly the same
that inspired CommonS project proposal– We feel like we can upscale our goals in a larger
European environments:– Partners in Up2U are (between others): GEANT, GARR,
CERN, Open University, University of Vigo […]

CommonS: present and future’s new resources to
reach these objectives • We need more resources (funding, brains,
structures) to reach a better definition of the services we want to provide. How?– What kind of synergy could be found between
CommonS and Up2U? [this item will be depth in later this night]
CommonS: present and future’s new resources to reach these objectives
• We need more resources (funding, braines,structures) to reach a better definition of the services we want to provide. How?– What kind of proposal could we elaborate for the
next Erasmus+ deadline? [this item will also be depth in later this night]
– We have some draft ideas, they can be transformed into a draft proposal within November and each one should express propension to participate
CommonS: future’s new resources from new project’s
ideas advancements• If we want to participate in a new partnership, we
need to make clearly emerge objectives of each one of us in terms of real determination to advance our organization in the direction drafted by the new project proposal. How?– What kind of advancements your organization could
be really interested in? [this item will also be depth in later this night]
– How can we work the next 12 months to let emerge this willing and this real engagement from our organization? [this item will also be depth in later this night]
