Tue Jan 14 13:30:07 UTC 2014

Hi everyone,

at the Open Data Ireland Meetup
#12<https://tito.io/open-data-ireland/meetup-12>there will be an
opportunity to focus on
collaborative Open
Education<http://openeducationeuropa.eu/en/blogs/open-education-europa-s-best-2013>
projects
and how we can make them work for Ireland. In particular we may start
to crowd source and prepare for a Book Sprint which is in the pipeline for
the International Open Data Day in
Ireland<https://tito.io/open-data-ireland/international-open-data-day-in-ireland---feb-22nd>
.

To kick start the process Joonas Mäkinen <https://twitter.com/JoonasD6>,
who organised Booksprint in Helsinki, will join us via G+ and I have
created a google doc where you can
p<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-n5d2r_v9ZxYDb7r5CFsaC-V-WaAi8fjLvtJTtzW5VA/edit>ost
and keep track of your questions for
Joonas<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-n5d2r_v9ZxYDb7r5CFsaC-V-WaAi8fjLvtJTtzW5VA/edit>
. I'll record his insights in he same document so we can reference it later
on.

Wondering what a Book Sprint is?  <http://www.booksprints.net/about/>
