Metacognition maps and grids...

Gridwalker - part 1

[Grids constitute one of the ways of generating play, alignment and conversations. It's a lot of fun to explore their endless worlds of possibility. To make things doable in tough environments it helps to agree on patterns (including grids) in order to enable group action.

If we have "one grid to rule them all" in the Conversation Community, it can serve as a connecting hub and town square for the community. A grid fulfilling this role is the Metacognition Map (see links below).

I continue to be amazed at how patterns of local efforts and personal projects are reflected "up here" in the collective awareness cloud. One such is the world we built and experienced "on the ground" locally as part of a learning/creative project. I am exapting it and bringing it into alignment with community patterns, toward the coordination-enabling 21C literacies we seek.

The following is part of a story that happened a long time ago on a grid far, far away, but it could have happened anywhere, including right here.

May you Walk the Grid in meaningful understanding!]


part 1: Shu

Jaem walked up the steps onto the porch of the house at the edge of the grid. The door opened. They looked at each other.

"Hello Jaem," she said.

"Hello Niana."

-----------------

They sat facing each other on wooden benches in the front room of the house.

Niana spoke.

"Why do you want to walk the grid?"

"To enjoy, and to learn how to make things out of nothing."

"Those are good reasons. Are you ready to begin?"

"Thank you Niana. I am ready."


"Be aware."

"Thank you. I am aware."

"In this state is everything."

...

"I see -- everything comes out of awareness."

"All that remains is to gain experience. Do you want some tea?"

"Yes. Thank you Niana."
