Abstract
Collaborative learning requires participants to know themselves, so that they can contribute their best knowledge to the collective. This process starts with having a personal inner observation, which culminates with knowledge to share with others. I review knowledge-gaining experiences, as described by researchers and artists, looking at three steps: Inner observation, Elusive Memory, and Thoughts. I then share a practical method that helps ‘capture’ self-knowledge by simplifying ideas into key-words and communicating them in a concise way. The method can empower e-developers in experiencing and in designing knowledge-gaining courses. The workshop will offer an introduction to the method. We will develop key-words, a short paragraph of text and also a simple collage (no artistic skills required). The collage will act as a ‘visual’ reference point to reflect on the text.
