Connecting Staff and Strengthening Training with Remote Learning Communities. In Practice. Lessons for and from Practitioners
Wulfsohn, Samantha; Rodney, Zaina; Behrmann, Rebecca
MDRC
Remote learning communities are peer groups that meet regularly by connecting online and via video and telephone conferencing, to work toward shared learning objectives in a structured virtual environment. Led by skilled facilitators who act as guides and sounding boards for these groups, the ongoing discussions may help staff incorporate new ideas into their work. These communities are an economical way for organizations operating in multiple locations or running on tight budgets to reinforce learning and foster peer-to-peer connections. In this post, the authors share what they have learned about organizing successful remote learning communities through the "Building Bridges and Bonds (B3)" and the "Procedural Justice-Informed Alternatives to Contempt (PJAC)" projects.
