GPEIG now has a “community” space on a new web site called SciVee designed for sharing science and research. Our esteemed planning scholar Bruce Stiftel, for instance, talks about global mindedness in a nine minute video clip. Since we uploaded Bruce’s clip to SciVee less than two weeks ago (June 19, 2008), it has been viewed 5050 times. The site is supported by the National Science Foundation, Public Library of Science, San Diego Supercomputer Center, among others. The beauty of this is the “community” aspect—GPEIG has a platform of its own, easily federated with other communities of interest. SciVee provides community tools for researchers of all levels to share their knowledge, connect with their peers, and respond to scientific data and stories. Researchers can see and hear scholars describe their research, join specific interest communities, participate in stimulating discussions, and create a comprehensive multimedia representation of their own research.
