SUMMARY:Nurturing Online Communities (NOC)
DESCRIPTION:Building and nurturing a community in an online environment comes with specific needs and challenges. This seven-week course is designed with community managers of scientific communities of practice in mind\, and will explore a variety of social science claims about how people behave in online communities to inform actions that you might take to support increased engagement\, commitment\, and constructive behavior. \nIn this seminar-style course\, participants will engage with instructors and each other in regular discussions\, guided by the course textbook\, Building Successful Online Communities by Kraut and Resnick. The course will cover 6 topics related to managing online communities and each week we will review the corresponding chapter of the textbook\, focusing on key themes identified by staff\, and work together on a case study to apply the concepts. Later the same week\, learners will spend a 90-minute Co-Lab working in breakouts on a CSCCE-designed activity to apply a translation of the core concepts to their own community\, followed by a debrief. \nOur fall offering of Nurturing Online Communities (NOC25F) will run on Tuesdays and Fridays beginning Tuesday\, 30 September until Friday\, 14 November 2025. \nThe key dates are: \n\nTuesday lessons: 30 September; 7\, 14\, 21\, 28 October; 4\, 12** November at 12pm – 1:30pm ET / 4/5pm – 5/6:30pm UTC*\nFriday Co-Labs: 3\, 10\, 17\, 24\, 31 October; 7\,14 November at 12pm – 1:30pm ET / 4/5pm – 5/6:30pm UTC*\n\n*Note that daylight savings may affect the timing of live sessions for those outside the US in the final week two weeks of the course). \n**CSCCE will be closed on Tuesday\, 11 November 2025 in observance of Veterans Day. To accommodate this\, our week 7 lesson will take place in the same time slot on Wednesday\, 12 November.  \nRegistration deadline: Friday\, 5 September\, 2025 \nREGISTER FOR NOC25F
