Premise #1: 90-9-1
90-9-1 Theoryuser participation generally follows a 90-9-1
Rule:– 90% of users are "lurkers"
• (i.e. they read or browse but don't contribute)
– 9% of users contribute from time to time, • other priorities dominate their time
– 1% of users participate very often
1-9-90
• The Role of the Lecturer as the 1%– Content creator / Innovator (Lecturer)
• Peer leaders (9%)– Early Adopter (Social/Peer leadership of cohort)– Comments, responds and interjects
• Majority (90%)– Later adopters– Can move to the Peer Leadership– Consumers of the content, – Validation of the leadership

Twitter failed the Product Test
• Relative advantage– No greater gain than hands in the air or
shouting out comment.
• Compatibility – Twitter was not part of my student’s life
• Complexity – Managing stream on phone/iDevice
• Capacity for Trial – Several tried, most quit.
• Communicability – Non-obvious advantages / non obvious
participation
Blog passed the test
• Relative advantage– Between class communication– Bonus assessment instruction
• Compatibility – Viewed as extension of LMS / slides
• Complexity – Simple RSS access from LMS
• Capacity for Trial – Ease of trial
• Communicability – Communicated through LMS– Limited communication
