Last year, TEKRI and Athabasca University hosted a week-long research seminar on networks and learning. The seminar will be held in Edmonton from June 20-24 and is open to students and faculty. The event was quite successful. As a result, we are organizing a similar event this year. It’s an opportunity for review of existing and leading research as well as intensive discussion about the roles of social media and networks in education.

So I have changed the complexity seminar to focus on a walk through of a generic approach to strategy based on complexity thinking. The seminars will be strictly limited in numbers, far too many people to my mind advertise a seminar but then deliver a large class lecture.

I have just been told that the seminar I am giving at the University of Surrey this Tuesday lunch time is open (although there are limited places). The title of the seminar is: From Induction to Abduction: a new approach to research and productive enquiry. As well as the practice of micro-narrative or abductive research I plan to outline some of the basic theory, in particular to the American Pragmatists Dewey and Peirce.

A mixture of meetings, project work, a couple of rugby matches and a series of one day seminars all make for a rich mix. As part of the preparation I have been working on the agenda for the seminars and have made some significant changes to focus on complexity based strategy. New thinking and methods will also be introduced through the seminar series. I'm looking forward to my impending four week tour of New Zealand, Australia and Singapore.

We've just had a couple of cancellations on the seminar next week (30th June) so some places are open again. I mix basic teaching with discussing the issues faced by people in the group, so it is a real seminar rather than a lecture or a class. It's a purposefully small group, spending a day understanding the implications for policy and practice of complexity theory.
