Rethinking Schooling through the “logic” of Emergence
But if education is educational precisely because it shapes the subjectivity of those being educated then it is impossible to distinguish this conception of education from planned enculturation or training. It would seem, therefore, that if we want to separate … Continue reading

The future under construction
Lean thinking defines value as providing benefit to the customer. Anything else is waste. But what if we really don’t know? Then the most important business process is to find out. We have to learn what creates value for different … Continue reading

Modeling Spaces for Self-directed Learning at University Courses
This paper conceptualizes the theoretical framework of modeling learning spaces for self-directed learning at university courses. It binds together two ideas: a) self-directed learners’ common learning spaces may be characterized as abstract niches, b) niche characteristics are collectively determined through … Continue reading
What Complexity Science Tells Us about Teaching and Learning
The diversity of knowledge and experience is an important source of intelligence in learning systems. Rich learning engagements (and the making of seemingly abstract connections) occur when knowledge is seen as shared and distributed. Local interactions within small groups of … Continue reading

Complexity and knowledge management: understanding the role of knowledge in the management of social networks
Read Simple “causal and effect” thinking doesn’t seem to be able to cut the mustard. We need to utilize knowledge in new ways … or maybe uncover insights from old ways. It is hard to think of something more worthy … Continue reading
Role Play and Simulation – Returning to Teaching for Understanding
This article describes how simulation and role play can be important learning strategies that will create long-lasting understanding. Simulation involves participating in a very real learning experience that closely resembles an actual setting. These actual settings may be replicated by … Continue reading
