Overview
• PANDORA as an exemplary case study • Illustrates research benefits of the Design Seeking and
Scaling model • PANDORA context
– Significant Event Audit (SEA– UK Health Sector’s General Practices
• We claim that the model is useful as a tool for – Improving collaboration through Personal/Shared Learning
Networks– Scaling

Research phase (we will return to this last)
• Can Networked Scaffolding be achieved by aggregating trust? And can aggregated trust be derived from semantic analysis of the collaborative tagging of people and resources in a Shared Learning Network?
• Is trust a phenomenon to be investigated with respect to effective scaffolding of people? Do these questions give the context?– Is there a wider network of people that I could draw on to help me? – Which people have proven to be effective for me and why? – Which meanings or learning context should I select from available
resources? – How does my context constrain what I need and could/should use?
• How can captured negotiations of meaning (in networked scaffolding) enable me to assess the effectiveness of learning resources and/or people from one context to another context; and how can this fosters cross-organisational learning and learning attitudes?
