What is Content Curation (Beth Kanter)
Content curation is the process of sorting through the vast amounts of content on the web and presenting it in a meaningful and organized way around a specific theme. Ø The work involves sifting, sorting, arranging, and
publishing information. Ø A content curator picks the best content that is
important and relevant to share with their community. Ø It isn’t unlike what a museum curator does to produce
an exhibition: They identify the theme, they provide the context, they decide which paintings to hang on the wall, how they should be annotated, and how they should be displayed for the public.
A Faith Formation Curator: is someone who continually finds, groups, evaluates, organizes, and shares the best and most relevant content and experiences on a specific topic to match the needs of a specific audience.

1. The increasing diversity of the religious and spiritual needs and practices of people today require personalized and customized content and experiences
2. An overwhelming abundance of high quality faith formation resources: print, audio, video, programs and activities, apps, e-‐books, websites, and more
3. The rise of online providers of religious content and experiences—“open repositories” of freely accessible faith formation and learning content hubs
Why Curation?
4. There is a growing demand for trusted guidance in finding and selecting quality religious content and experiences. People are looking for trusted guides to help them select quality faith formation experiences and curated learning paths and resources to explore and learn more deeply on a specific topic.
5. The tools are now available for finding and accessing the content, storing it (websites), delivering it to people 24x7x365 (computers, iPhones, iPads, etc.), and communicating & connecting people to the content (Facebook, Twitter, email, text, etc.).

5 Tasks in Curation
1. Aggregation: gathering and sharing the most relevant content on a particular topic into a single location
2. Filtering/Distillation: sharing only the most important or relevant ideas
3. Elevation: recognizing a larger trend or insight from all of the content
4. Mashup: merging 2 or more unrelated pieces of content to form a new message
5. Chronology: organizing random pieces of content in chronological order to show the evolution of a particular topic or idea

Things to Remember: Change
1. Follow the bright spots: investigate what’s working and clone it.
2. Script the critical moves: don’t think big picture, think in terms of specific behaviors. Shrink the change.
3. Point to the destination: change is easier when you know where you’re going and why it’s worth it.
4. Find the feeling: knowing something isn’t enough to cause change. Make people feel something. Build an emotional and rational case for change.
Things to Remember: Connecting
1. Connect to (or extend from) a gathered event, program, ministry.
2. Establish a Facebook page for faith formation for Network announcements, updates, stories and photos from people engaged in faith formation, etc.
3. Use Twitter to announce updates, events, and invite reflections from people on their experiences in the Network.
4. Send e-‐mail, texts, or regular e-‐newsletters to targeted groups (Constant Contact).
5. Provide ways to share experiences using blogs, Twitter, Facebook: videos, reports, photos, etc.
