Telling shows and tells

POC 2 SlipsDevelopment time is tight - the SnT-1 delay needs to be two weeks.

Nick pointed out that we don’t need to delay thinking about SnT-2 and in fact we can start on scoping SnT-2 (next post).

But first we need to sort out the SnT-1. I prepared a running sheet for it; & crikey it is boring.

We really want to engage our audience (initially the staff here at ed.au). The MyEdna POC Show and Tell Q&A sessions had tumbleweed passing us by. How to improve it? Jokes? An IO fable? Show the shiny stuff quick?

We decided that we going to prepare relevant quiz questions to prod the audience with and show how such a simple process of resource discovery is not so simple. Hopefully this way we’ll avoid people nodding off on a Friday afternoon.

Sarah & I reflected on the usefulness of the boring running sheet was as a discussion point starter - it helped us move from what we don’t want to what we really want.

I figure this is an important way proof of concepts can work if inspiration fails at first.
