The Meaning We Create

I’m working on a session on Storytelling in Learning for tomorrow. I’ll use some of the new Learning Science work, including this slide on the creation of meaning.

It draws on the idea that a core part of Social Learning is individual and collective ‘sense making’, creating the narratives that we then live within.

This informs a whole host of factors for the learning Organisation: how we architect learning, how we support community, how we earn trust, how narratives are fractured, evolve, or fail.

Stories are an important aspect of learning, but it’s more complex than the stories that we tell.
