SESSION OVERVIEW
A BOF Session to discuss training and learning for non-technical Drupal Users.
TRACK
Birds of a Feather

AGENDA
* How do End Users learn about Drupal?
* Why is there a need for more end-user resources?
* How better resources for end users can benefit all of us who do Drupal work.
* Can we work together to build better resources for this?

GOALS
I’ve been working on a site devoted solely to non-technical users of Drupal. This is primarily because I find that after building a site for people, they’re often really stuck on what they should do with it. Most of the existing materials for Drupal are aimed at the developer, not at the non-technical user who just wants to USE the web site and create content. I’d like the goal of this session to be having a discussion on whether this is really a problem, and if so, how can we work toward fixing it.
RESOURCES
New web site http://www.drupalforusers should be going live fairly soon - This should give some idea of what I’m talking about.
