Intro

During this complex time us humans are navigating all of us involved in peeragogy hope you and your families are healthy, dear reader. We also would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all those healthcare professionals risking their lives to save us and fight this virus. We also wish all the Doctor's out there a happy National Doctor's Day today and everyone a happy Women's History Month!

For our second monthly e-zine) issue of the decade, we're going to summarize what we did in February 2020. To start and answer that we're going to use a PAR!

Peeragogical Action Review

  1. Review the intention: what do we expect to learn or make together?
    • Learn how to do an online course by conducting an online course
    • Make progress on Version 4 of the handbook
  2. Establish what is happening: what and how are we learning?
    • Progress on both!
    • What are some different perspectives on what’s happening?
    • The regular meeting times have been invaluable
  3. What did we learn or change?
    • Better how to run an online course
  4. What else should we change going forward?
    • Keep improving how we learn and produce things collaboratively!
