Hi Tom,
I had forgotten about this group!
I think it’s worth pointing out that
some relevant discussions may be being held on the new do-wire groups
http://groups.dowire.org/index.xml
although none is specifically aimed at
deliberation

Subject: [delib] Looking for
orientation on RE online deliberation tools
Hello,
I am involved in some online deliberation porjects and just discovered
this group. [It has 87 members but has not been very active--is it
still alive?]
If anyone is listening, I'd appreciate any thoughts on the following:
- One of my interests is in tools that support the ethical elements of
collaboration, communication, and decision-making. I am, for
instance, inspired by Habermas' Discourse Ethics. In particular I'm
interested in tools that support the cognitive/emotional skills needed
to engage deeply in dialog and multiple perspectives. Does anyone
have pointers to like-minded projects or research?
- Is there proceedings of presentation summaries for the Online
Deliberation DIAC-2005 conference?
- I recently discovered truthmapping.
mind-map/concept map/sensemaking tools out there (this is a
particularly nice one for deliberation)
pointing to such tools being used successfully in authentic situations
to foster deliberation and knowledge building?
--cheers, Tom
