 I am musing about running a Virtual Summer School in July 2018, with a possible repeat in August 2018. This would be organised by Chronoscopic Education & MarineLives, with the potential for involvement by other organisations as faculty or supporters.

 The trick to these things is to create a bit of buzz AND to keep the time commitment manageable, so that participants are not put off, and to allow for varying degrees of subsequent engagement. We find such programmes a great way to build community spirit and to generate future volunteers for our activities. Hence I am proposing the minimum commitment to be attending four one hour video calls spread out over four weeks in July (with possible repeat for a second batch or participants in August). For those interested, there would be follow-on documents to read and practice exercises, made available on a private Virtual Summer School Google Group, which I (and possibly others) would moderate, facilitate and support.

 MarineLives has run successful summer events before, ranging from Summer Transcription programmes in 2013, 2014 and 2015, to a Digital PopUp Lab in 2016 (with a focus on exploiting the technical features of our semantic media wiki).
