Workshop at 2006 NYSAIS in Mohonk, NY With Breakout - Design Shop for Online Collaboration**
 * Dave Cormier and Nancy White

=Part 1 - 20 minutes= How do we approach the second wave? If we start with the presumption that people here are already compelled, in one way or the other, by the technology and/or the possibilities they allow, how do we create a project that will offer the same value and potential for buy in for the second wave adopters?

Goals of the design shop: What does it mean to get a 2.0 project started? With an eye to these newer technologies we'll get down and dirty with strategy and tools to support a variety of online collaboration settings. Come with your dream project in hand. At the end of our 90 minute session you will have a list of goals and potential paths to success.
