Eduserv funded Rhizome project on digital identities: an overview - the project launch slideshow.

1. rhizome: exploring digital identities in learning, teaching and research Dr Steven Warburton, King’s College London http://liquidlearning.org http://www.rhizomeproject.org

2. “ As I try (and leave) more and more environments I am depositing small identity artifacts that I can no longer track and I am feeling like I am fracturing my identity [my correction] more and more along the way.” http://camplesegroup.com/blog/?p=1203 Cole Camplese

10. our approach

11. multiple perspectives, multiple dimensions ID, fixed digital self, mutable research, review agency, action problems solutions past future scope action problem spaces time

12. scope ID, fixed digital self, mutable Digital identity landscape: what are online identities and how are they implemented? Identity literacies and competencies: How do we create online identities and the rhetoric of the self? Functional identities in use: Online identities, what for? What is the spectrum of identity related transactions (LLL)? Interactions between live identities: How identities interact? Social, ethical and security dimensions themes 1 to 4 (below)

13. online identity problem space identity uncontrolled, ineluctable identity management for LLL* researching problem spaces tools for action awareness, active dissemination, proof of concept tool understanding the self *Life Long Learning

14. research to action research, review agency, action diachronic analysis past evolution contemporary trends future desk field prospective key reports, synthesis stories, patterns of use scenarios, road mapping awareness, dissemination proof of concept tool

15. a proof of concept identity may not be a CV and a CV is not online identity BUT it is a key component in identity transactions related to education and work addresses control, management and user-centric* presentation of the self background of increasing use of blogs, plug-ins, widgets *this is an approach also adopted by the ‘H-Resume’ project

16. project evaluation key evaluation questions project logic model evaluation plan analysis grid evaluation stakeholder analysis advisory group criteria for success periodic evaluation reports

17. linking it all together: the project workflow

18. dissemination - a three tier approach a multi-faceted activity addressing awareness, knowledge and use using both active and passive modes

19. Planning, desk research, identification of key issues across digital identities. rhizome activity dissemination objective dissemination mode dissemination mechanism Active Mailing list, flyers, webpages, (micro) blogging, workshops, aggregation tools. Narrative and scenario mapping workshops, collation and analysis of data. Invitations to experts, awareness campaign using multiple channels. Active Research to action, proof of concept and model, reporting. Project report, multiple dissemination channels. Awareness campaign and user-studies of WP plug-in. Passive/ active Awareness Knowledge Use
