Me, As A Learner
When I can see the relevance or need in the "learning". I must feel safe to collaborate/share my thoughts and understanding within my learning community. I must also feel safe to risk not being right or seeing where I need to revise my thinking, beliefs, etc.
 * What motivates you to learn?
 * What must you have in order for your learning to be successful?


 * What causes you to pay attention, even if the topic you’re studying is not your favorite?
 * What makes you shut down? When I feel that the information is over my head, I have no background to connect it to and no processing time ("chewing" time and practice time). I prefer to share in smaller groups first to "try out" my understanding before sharing with an entire group and the most ideal situation is to have feedback on what I have processed and applied.


 * How can we create or avoid these conditions in our learning community?Breaking into small chunks, providing time for me to "chew on" and try out my understanding with constructive and judgement-free feedback - this will allow me to revise and/or improve my understanding.
