Knowledge, Learning, Community
I have in the past said that what distinguishes most of the learning I offer with what you find in corporate or academic learning is that you can gt up and walk out of mine with no repercussions. Ownership over process is key to learning. As Gina Minks says, "I think that this idea - power residing in the mechanisms that connect or disconnect networks - is really key to designing communities and educational events. We have to figure out how to empower members and learners to create a dedicated connection to the community we have built."
