Definition

"A participant-run, member-supported project that emerged as a P2PU Labs project with a grant from the Shuttleworth Foundation, building directly on the experience and community of P2PU and Citizen Circles." (http://www.openmastersprogram.com/about/support/)


Characteristics

Alan Webb:

(introduced the 2nd semester)

"Studio Groups, which are groups of 3-12 people that will act as our home base of support and accountability in the program. -> Read More about how this fits into the overall structure of community.

A Member Checklist to guide us through the path of becoming full, peer-endorsed members of the Open Master’s, and this class. Our goal is for each of us to complete the member checklists to the satisfaction of our studio groups by April 31st and, when we do, earn our student cards.

A detailed schedule for the next four months, to help us focus on main priorities each month on our own, one-on-one with partners, in our studio groups, and together as a community. This is to serve as a starting point to help us through this process together, but not as a hard-and-fast rule."
