Like Mark I will share this same excerpt: “There is a profound and dangerous autism in the way we describe knowledge management and e-learning. It is accompanied by an almost psychotic blindness to the human experiences of knowing, learning, communicating, formulating, recognising, adapting, miscommunicating, forgetting, noticing, ignoring, choosing, liking, disliking, remembering and misremembering.” Context neutrality My last couple of posts have been about how important context is in KM.

Personally, I buy this estimation because it links with the way I personally learn. hardly attend formal conferences and trainings because I get so little out of it. Nevertheless, I guess other people with different Well, that's a nice figure that I've seen resurface in many places and articles (I even like to quote it myself!).

Came across this article on the BBC website today. 
At the end I asked every table to formulate the one most interesting or surprising thing they learned through this exercise:  Some participants talked more about the method and it’s possible applications, others talked about the way they had gathered a new understanding of a burning problem they face in their work situation or the political landscape of their field, but everyone seemed to have gotten some new insight out of it. But in this short and intense period of time, there wasn’t enough space and focus to be able to look at the individual cases in more detail and as
