Theres also space carved out on the agenda for meetings. Whats the difference between a learning exchange and a meeting?
The goals and the duration. Meetings can be among existing groups or newly formed groups, such as a community of practice for diversity officers or public scholars or people who share an interest or concern. We envision meetings as more action oriented – next steps. Meeting spaces are two hours whereas learning exchanges are two-and-a-half or five hours in duration (depending on the topic). Participants in learning exchanges are welcome to extend their work into meeting space, if so inclined.
