1. What kind of OCoP is this? What is its history?
2. What makes this OCoP successful? What DE theories contribute to its success?
3. How does it function? (e.g. Who sponsors it? What kind of platform? Do parts of it require paid membership?)
4. How does this OCoP contribute to learning and building knowledge?
5. How would you monitor or assess the success of this OCoP?
