Eight groups will be formed
For this workshop attendees will be directed to work with a group sharing a reasonably common experience with the Manaiakalani programme.
These are the very broad groups we have identified initially:
Educators (those directly involved in the 9 Manaiakalani Schools in a teaching or management role, including BOT members)
Supporters and Stakeholders (everyone else including; students, corporate, philanthropic, volunteer, whanau, technical, government, academic etc)
From there the groups will be broken down into two lots of four groups
Educators working mostly with students in their first year of Netbook experience
First Year: In your first year of involvement or just finding out about it
Second Year: Which actually includes involvement since late 2007!
