The document discusses the formation of a new working group focused on widgets and their use in teaching and learning. It outlines two suggested aims for the group: 1) develop a widget infrastructure and plugins for major web platforms to make widgets easy to discover and embed, and 2) determine models for widget use in practice by developing and adapting widgets. The agenda provided plans an introductory meeting to discuss goals and ways forward for the new working group.
