This document summarizes an open consultation process using Open Space Technology to identify factors for developing a blended learning program. It provides an overview of the process, which involved participants brainstorming issues and opportunities, organizing ideas in small groups, and sharing results. The document discusses tensions faculty felt with encouraging self-organized learning but notes that emergent information from groups provided valuable program insights. It also describes how the researchers used narrative inquiry to examine their own tensions in introducing open courses through open discussion and self-organization.
