> one. Too often an interpretation is turned into a method........
I think i just heard an "ouch" echoing up from CoPsville. Maybe from elsewhere
too -- yet, by analogy, interpretations of physics into methods has yielded
electrical, optical and mechanical engineering, and those of chemistry into
chemical engineering, and so on... technology upon which western culture stands
in part. Perhaps in these times of (what i consider) educational alchemy, some
interpretation is sorely needed for informing method...
This could just be a passing fancy...
But this is meant, that is, I'm trying to make it mean, without it being mean,
in the sense of neither negating nor refusing the point, but rather seeking to
qualify it.
educational alchemy? Probably read it somewhere, or I am about to. Eh?? Know
a similar term?
I have not been able to dissect the phrase "community of practice" to any
smaller unit as "community". But that is perhaps simultaneously the strength
and weakness of CoP -- that "practice" is the sole category, that it is of
primary importance?
