13.16.2 :-? Thomas
Dear Anthony,
I accept that much can be improved by improving technology. I even heard our technicians saying that
it is even easierfor notes based learning platforms to have full
threading than to limit it. I do not know if it is true. In lotus learning space'which we use here I
asked to design a threading system which allows to retrieve at a mouse
click the very threadleading to the last argument. This would allow to overcome the Markov deficit.
However, there is the problem of skewed attention. The message you have opened is there: quite visible.
What have said before is somewhat shrewd in memory. This is
partly a problem of time. Have you ever played chess at a distance? You have to reconfigure the game
each time anew. Here you have to reconfigure the argument and
rekindle themotivation at the same time.
Then there is the question with cross references. How can I bind arguments together. I can only link
to a thread. Isn'tthis the technological tail wagging the educational
dog (as Hilary Perraton, the visiting expert in OMDE625 explainedwhen I introduced him to the system).
I like 'rigid flexibility' a US military koan? (You know koans from Zen Buddhism: paradoxes given to
novices tofrustrate their trust in arrogant rationality.)Additional
observation: I immediately jumped on continuing this micro-conversations since I lost context. May be
thishas been said at several corners of this conference! But what
an effort to find out! Utterly inefficient.Kind regardsThomas
