Quality of CIPD online discussions

Amanda Claire Baldwin

This is my first foray into the mist of CIPD online discussions and I have to admit to being a bit disappointed with the quality of some discussion for debate. 

Not to say that the items listed are not relevant but I think it would be better to have an 'advice section' for those individuals who have simple questions about practice to be answered? 

Then the space for discussions can be recogised and valued more as one where real debate will occur.

  • Voting & buttons - maybe we need two then..


    1) "yes I agree and would say the same"


    2) useful thanks


    Two very different communication messages, both light touch, both encouraging contributions. "Like" is not the same as "support/ agree".


    The concept being for readers to have an understanding of the extent to which the view of one person is or is not supported in a given area.


    If deployed all readers need to be able to see WHO has ticked the box - not anon like many other systems - a bit like a comment form on a blog


     


     


    Julia - if there are lots of 'views' we need to be careful - as one person can count up lots of views - do a page refresh and watch the number increase...


    an alternative is to have a "rating" button that needs to be completed before leaving any page.. but that would get very messy... (no please don't add this feature! it has killed some forums)


    PROFILE 


    On the issues of profile - maybe it should be a requirement that both bio and photo should be a requirement if this is a "community". Linking the bio to either a current LinkedIn profile or the current CIPD data for a job title could be a way forward.
