When we started this project, I did not want to narrow down the list of possible topics for lessons or courses until we had a chance to start talking to people about their needs and interests. I did some initial planning around course and lesson ideas in a public "Local Preservation 101" Trello board but did not continue using that board past the fall.
In this case, a course is a discrete collection of related lessons or tutorials that we can publish in a stand-alone repository. A course could be used as a more traditional self-guided online course, as the basis for a preservationist Learning Circle, or as a resource for the facilitator of a formal workshop or training.
Here are a few course ideas that we are working on:
Neighborhood Preservation 101 (This may be the focus of our workshop in Philadelphia.)
Organizing and Preservation (This could borrow from the open operational guides that I've started publishing for Baltimore Heritage).
I can expand on these ideas with short descriptions for each course but I'd also welcome comments or suggestions for what may be missing from this list.
