Understanding polycontextuality through Happy Valley
The penultimate episode of Happy Valley on BBC TV included a very tense scene that helps to explain polycontextuality and why it is useful for educators. It seems like the whole country was gripped by Happy Valley – a psychologically … Continue reading

Community of Enhancement
I keep returning to the phrase Community of Enhancement to describe my philosophy behind my staff development role. It is not astounding but, significantly for me, it is a better than Community of Practice. It reflects and models the ethos … Continue reading
The problem with communities… a consideration of alternatives
Why do I explore ideas like being, belonging and becoming in relation to networks, but I hardly talk about communities any more? In this post I will look at why networks and affinity spaces more than communities have come to … Continue reading

Being there – thinking about presence #socmedhe18 #mugafesto
