Knowledge, Learning, Community

What's interesting about this approach is that it draws (some) elements from Alcoholics Anonymous to faculitate a support network for collaboration practitioners. Probably the most salient feature is the regular check-in and the suggestion to "encourage (but not require) participants to find a regular checkin partner." And also, "I'm also making a bet about our Sharing muscles... I want to actively cultivate this muscle by encouraging participants to share rough little tidbits about their work and their thinking more frequently." I'm not sure how much of this would be appropriate for classrooms but I can see it having value in professional development circles.
