I have talked about 'flow' in relation to online learning in the past, but I haven't meant this, as cited by Grainne Conole: "the holistic experience that people feel when they act with total involvement' or 'flow' the state in which people are so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter." My sense of 'flow' - it is the environment that is in a state of fluidity and flux, and it is up to us to adapt to that, rather than to try to hold on to some aspect of the environment - is somewhat different. But it is interesting, isn't it, to think about where the two idea intersect? (Nice link to the Ed Tech Wiki, which I haven't looked at for a while.)
