The document discusses orchestrating networked innovation and collaboration. It provides an agenda for a session on collaborative creativity including introductory remarks, a discussion on collaborative creativity led by participants, and a reporting back portion. It discusses the need for new ways of sharing and creating knowledge through networked learning and innovation. It presents examples of community-based innovation and describes the workflow and features of an innovation service. Finally, it discusses challenges around networked innovation and orchestrating people into collaborative communities within large networks.
2. Session plan
• 11.30 - 11.45 Introductory remarks by me
• 11.45 - 12.30 Collaborative creativity by you
• 12.30 - 12.50 Reporting back by you
• 12.50 - 13.00 Conclusions
Thursday, February 4, 2010
4. Why?
• Knowledge economy, EU Lisbon objectives,
staying competitive: new products and
services
• New ways of sharing knowledge (learning
from each other) but also of being creative
• Need for Networked Learning but also for
Networked Innovation
Thursday, February 4, 2010
5. Community-based
Innovation
• Distributed, online
• Workflow: support from pedagogic
patterns and creativity techniques
• Context-sensitive recommendations to
users
• idSpace -project

7. Networked Innovation
• How do the collaborating communities
emerge from a larger network?
• Need for focus on Open Innovation
processes within the network as a whole
• Need for mechanism to ‘herd’ people into
communities, even if only ad hoc and
temporarily

social network sites, share documents on
slideshare, tag websites via del.ico.us,
collaborate online using Google docs, etc.

10. Problem statements
• How could these people be made to
collaborate on open innovation projects?
- What software services would they need
(existing ones, new ones)? list of services
- How would these have to be ‘mashed
up’, orchestrated into an environment?
list of constraints
Thursday, February 4, 2010
11. Getting to work
1. Grasp the problem, rephrase if needed
2. Decide on how you want to solve it (goal)
3. Freely collect ideas
4. Evaluate ideas, give feasibility ranking
5. Formulate your solution
Thursday, February 4, 2010
12. Collaboration &
reporting back
• 4 groups of about 8 people discuss
- each group 5 slides, 1 per step, by way of
report, put on usb stick
• 20 min. reporting = 5 minutes per group
• 10 general evaluation

15. Group 1
Citizen & Media Participation
Thursday, February 4, 2010
16. Problem
• Citizens should be able to participate more
directly in government, and media should play
a more direct role in helping citizens engage in
government
Thursday, February 4, 2010
17. Goal
• Connect media, citizens and government
Thursday, February 4, 2010
18. Ideas
• Connect media stories to open community discussion
to generate ideas for action
• Connect community discussion to opportunities for
direct engagement with government through e-
petitions
• Connect results of action to opportunities for policy
analysis
• Implement monitoring of enforcement of action
Thursday, February 4, 2010
19. Feasibility
• Add open discussion spaces to news stories (or aggregations
of stories) - feasible, already implemented e.g. http://
www.worldpress.org
• Enable open discussion to focus into action - challenges e.g.
validity of participation, voting systems, critical mass
required. Could move into FB or existing large network
• Connecting to e-petitions - feasible, e.g. http://
petitions.number10.gov.uk/
• Enabling policy analysis - feasible, e.g. http://
writetoreply.org/
• Monitoring and enforcement - feasible, e.g. http://
www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/
Thursday, February 4, 2010
20. Solution
• Identify the existing services and develop
solution to make explicit connections between
them
• E.g. share on twitter, on facebook already a
demo for this

38. SOLUTION APPROACH
• money from CELSTEC
• volunteers (categorized) whose artefacts you can analyze and
bother with ideas
• offer added value to anyone
Thursday, February 4, 2010
40. Problem
• How do we entice people to want to engage in
open innovation and how can we convince them of
the value of collaborating to do this?
• How do we provide opportunities for that
collaborative environment to grow?
• How do we establish authentic shared goals?
• How technologies can be used to make it easier for
people to collaborate?
Thursday, February 4, 2010
41. Goal
• Establishing ways to motivate people to
establish shared goals (once they have shared
goals they will be motivated)
N.B.: we will not be focusing on technology
