...not Sage on the Stage
Becoming a resource for learners as true Guides by the Side online? Maybe?
I had an epiphany last night as I awoke from a dream about Guides by the Side.
What if you - a Guide by the Side - could affect learners who truly needed you most when they needed you most?
What if they could self-select you as defined by your self-selected current skill set and interests?
What if you could reach out to them just-in-time and help them keep moving forward in their development as they continue to pursue their life's dreams?
What would that look like - the online combined database of your skills and their needs?
Maybe is is a forum that you hold - maybe here at GbtS? Maybe we can drive learners to you via this site and see what happens? Like MATH or LANGUAGES or SCIENCE or ART or ???
Maybe we can begin to validate as a Tribe the worth of such an exercise for both Guides and Learners together? Something like 360 degree evaluation (rypple.com) so we're all part of the process - like a team in a business that is working on a project?
You who have so many life experiences, acquired wisdom and great ideas and; them - the learners - who have so much energy and enthusiasm; together working towards accomplishing a common goal in mind?
What think you, Tribe?

No forums posted yet - I'm guiding folks to do it and you are the first to ask how.
So...
...maybe you could start a new forum and label it, "Start Your Engines! Things I'd Like To Do - Places I'd Like To Go".
Then we can all send students to it and see what happens? ;-)

Just a thought but wouldn't a twitter network be a more justintime solution for someone with a question as outlined above. I haven't had a great deal of experience using twitter but from what I understand it would allow people with questions access to others with suggestions.
