&quo...OK, I couldn't stand not to write a poem.<br />"ABC's of Collaboration"<br />Avail yourself of every opportunity<br />Because you never know when<br /> Coming together could lead to creation.<br />Delight in differences<br /> Engage in each other’s possibilities<br />Feel free to make mistakes.<br />Give up the need to be right and <br /> Humble yourself to others’<br /> Intelligence and imagination.<br />Just be ready for surprises.<br /> Know that there will be conflict<br />Laugh a lot.<br />Make miracles together<br />Never quit listening asking sharing believing<br />Open your eyes and your heart<br />Plan a little, play more.<br /> Quiet the inner doubter<br />Resist the need to be right<br />Stay open to surprises<br />Take time to laugh.<br />Up the ante.<br />View the world through new eyes<br />Wonder at what might be possible<br />Excite yourself about others’ ideas<br /><br /> You never know when your<br /><br />zeal might reap rewards.

I have shared some of the sites I've found, including this "commons" and hope that all those at my school are finding it easier to teach students how to be respectful of others' work. Isn't that the idea, after all? I enjoyed hearing the background of your project. Can't wait to see what's next!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-2110109830662366912013-04-03T20:07:05.217-04:002013-04-03T20:07:05.217-04:00I'm chuckling at the thought of being a monito...I'm chuckling at the thought of being a monitor in the Internet hallways! :-)Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-34524868057484954202013-04-03T15:17:43.508-04:002013-04-03T15:17:43.508-04:00Oh what a very important project, Mary Lee.

So much truth. And I think so many of us, me included sometimes, are guilty of using people's stuff, and sometimes not crediting them. And I don't think people even view it as stealing, the stuff is just so accessible and easy to manipulate on line. And yet it's so important to honor the artist. <br /><br />Especially love the four "rules for collaboration."- Share ideas, create with joy, work together, don't destroy. That, in itself, feels like a poem. Thanks for these gifts!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294455230627182656noreply@blogger.com
