UseCase2


 * [[image:Andrea_Jane_Rick.png width="375" height="258" align="right" caption="Faculty Collaboration"]]Title**: Faculty Collaboration


 * Actor**: Faculty member


 * Goal**: Use tool with two or more colleagues to plan a new course


 * Main Success Scenario**:
 * 1) team member is able to follow a running text conversation with her/his team members
 * 2) team member is able to contribute to/co-edit a set of shared documents (text artifacts) for such things as course description, bibliography and syllabus
 * 3) team member can contribute, group, comment on (maybe rate or "like") and tag resources such as weblinks, pdfs, images, ppts, sound files that //**can later be exported**// for use in course (maybe as a zip)
 * 4) team member can create visual representations of course structures - concept map like feature with drag and drop


 * Extensions**: [optional alternative paths to the Main Success Scenario]
 * 1) text conversation and single shared doc can be done with TitanPad, Google groups or email
 * 2) shared editing can be done with dropbox or google docs and some LMSs
 * 3) resources can be contributed through drop box or a shared LMS but without commenting, grouping, tagging, packaging and exporting
 * 4) I don't know of any free tool that makes this possible.

//Open Cohort needs to be more effective for this than the teachers working right in the LMS. We (pleplnis) attempted to use Moodle as a planning tool, but found that it was clunky and we moved around to other tools - AND THAT was confusing. LMS is powerful but clunky. Wiki is not clunky but is very linear/texty.//
