Professional Social Networks Supported by a ‘Mentor Help Agent’

Paul Coyne and I did an FP7 bid that is still cutting edge today.   The search engine design proposed to search for people with the expertise you need in an organisation matched against your competence level or understanding. Then you can search your ‘who is online’ network webinar tool to see if they are available to talk online. Google has done some work in this area with the Aadvark Search

Here is a rough draft project proposal:

Professional Social Network – Expert Search:
Vark Case Study Project Proposal

by Dr. Anthony ‘Skip’ Basiel abasiel@gmail.com  https://abasiel.wordpress.com/  

Aim:  This proposal puts forward the proposition that the IWBL DProf. Network and the Education Department MIDwheb Partnership has a huge amount of intellectual capital that can be joined-up and made searchable using Web 2.0 pedagogic approaches and technologies.

With a web-based system such as Google http://vark.com/ we will be able to promote communication and collaboration within these online communities that may impact on learning and problem solving opportunities.

Objective: This system may be linked to other platforms to support learning such as Adobe Connect (web video conferencing ) and the Learning Resources at Middlesex University such as the Research Repository (http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/ ),Alumni Office (http://www.intra.mdx.ac.uk/services/development.html ), the Research and Business  Office (http://www.intra.mdx.ac.uk/services/RBO/index.html ), Staff Development (http://www.intra.mdx.ac.uk/staffdevportal/staffdev/homepage/contacts.html ) and the Learning Resources (e.g. Web help desk http://webhelpdesk.mdx.ac.uk/ and Summon search enginehttp://www.lr.mdx.ac.uk/summon/index.htm , Ask a Librarian http://askalibrarian.mdx.ac.uk/ ) and theUniversity Expert Staff Directory (http://www.mdx.ac.uk/aboutus/staffdirectory/index.aspx ).

Methodology: This project will be done as a series of small pilot case studies to explore the pedagogic designs and models that can be formed from the practice of a professional social network of experts linked to a ‘human search facility’.  Evaluation will be done through a variety of quantitative data collection techniques and tools (e.g. Google Docs email forms) and qualitative systems (e.g. Adobe Connect to conduct web video case studies) and analysis (e.g. Adobe automatic voice to text transcription for interviews). Dissemination will be done offline at conferences (e.g. Informatologyhttp://www.informatology.com/ ) and online through Adobe / Google events (e.g.http://edexchange.adobe.com/pages/home and live webinars using Connect).

Timeline and costs: A Gantt chart and budget will be determined once all of the stakeholders of the project are established. It is hoped that in addition to Middlesex University (e.g. Institute for Work Based Learning and MIDwheb Partnership of the Education Department) we will have an agreed association with Adobe Systems Ltd. UK and Google Education, UK. The project is expected to run for a one year period in the first phase of development with an additional year added for the second stage of research and development.
