As Extension attempts to adapt to these new ways of learning, organizing, and addressing complex problems, Extension professionals must understand the power of online networks, how to participate within them, and how to help build robust networks that meet diverse needs.
In this session, we will discuss how Extension can make an impact in the networked era and use networks to address complex problems.
The workshop will include real-world examples of how Cooperative Extension is working within broader networks to address complex issues. Participants will also brainstorm how a network mindset can transform Extension programming.
Participants will learn how to join, create, and begin to feel comfortable communicating as peers and co-learners in online networks. They will begin to build their own online network in this workshop, leaving with tools and strategies that will help them continue to build their network in the future.
