Just read it. Very good. As you know long time reflective journaler that I am... However that process which I brought a piece too on-line in the form of a bouncy happy blog. I think is very important to my working. And it would seem to me we could design this into children reflecting and conversing on their growth through time. Good article. Excellent link. Just read it.

Your idea about creativity as a core quality of emergence is very close to my own thinking. So the "case" for creativity might be made with this model of learning. Reflection, too, is written about in an article, <a href="http://www.complexityandeducation.ualberta.ca/COMPLICITY2/CJ_Potential.htm" rel="nofollow">The Potential of Reflective Journals in Studying Complexity in Action</a>, in the 2005 issue of the Complicity journal.

The problem is so few are artists that the language of that doesn't speak to them....and this again removes meaning for someone you might be speaking with about the work you are doing and holding onto as a group. But I have decided that might be good for me in my stance to use this, but is it so comprehensible? ..., I've used as "poet makers," again limited, because of how that is seen. I think, asking everyone involved, listening and seeing if one meta-metaphor springs forward would be interesting. This is actually from a book by Yero on teacher self-reflection....which actually is an excellent accessible work. I started to create a meme to this ....but I lack the network to carry it out. And reading about memes rather threw me as well. Having failed I think in my first go round to understand what this blogging actually was, a system of group thought. Using it in a self system...seeing, however, it differently now...So anyway I would really like a metaphorical construct. And again thank you for this hard work. I've been meaning to be in touch.
