  7. Process • Wind guides our group • Group members can change wind speed • “ It is a perspective that locates learning, not in the head or outside it, but in the relationship between the person and the world” (Wenger, 2009, p. 1)

  8. Contributions • Each pedal on the pinwheel represents individual contributions to the COP • “A learning partner is not someone who agrees with you or who even shares your background necessarily.” • Wenger, 2009 • Dis-harmony • If you remove a pedal, or if a pedal is bent out of shape, it has a profound effect on the pinwheel as a whole

  9. Similarities • Common goals • Commitment to lifelong learning • Passionate about helping others • “Learning as the production of identity” (Wenger, 1998)

  10. Differences • Age • Life experiences • Life choices • Interests and hobbies • Religious affiliations • Learning styles (Kolb)

  11. Conflicts • Several potential areas for conflict • Handled conflicts in a professional and respectful manner • The wind represents conflict

  12. Context • Requires both participation and reification • Alignment with the context • We are social participants • Learning is social becoming • Context is inseparable from learning

  13. Key Points • Each panel alone would not create a functioning pinwheel • The wind provides energy to to help make our pinwheel function and spin, providing us with an opportunity to learn and grow
