With the close of Google +, we now have a subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/metagamebookclub) that we will start populating. reddit does also have community chat rooms which we can use.
For the Algorithms of Oppression book club, we'll us this subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/algorithms_bias/)
The model for the book club is based on social network knowledge construction. Participating instructors will be able to be active in the book club in several ways from lurking (reading the discussions) to actively creating content. It is expected that each participant’s level of activity will vary each week based on the individual’s interest in the weekly topics. Besides the content area, there will be the opportunity for you as an educator to build your game based learning PLN (Personal Learning Network).
We understand that you may get busy or you may just want to lurk - please feel free to do so. As one of our colleagues, Barbara Truman says, "Lurk and learn."
