Sylvia, OK ... If you are looking for, and open to, surprises ...
- where it happens - an empirical question - observe, describe, ask for stories, narratives, visualisations, mind-maps.
- 'where' it happens - where there are some of the following present and available:
- (closed) learning objects with instruction
- (open) learning objects with intention and an invitation to explore [these two options are from a discussion thread elsewhere in this forum, and are work in progress - might be too rough at this stage]
- 'it' - cognitive, embodied, affective, ontological, professional, social, etc, or all of the above.
- 'how it happens' - risky and challenging (see the bird on the left) comfortalbe (the bird on the right) etc - all of which depend on the context, and just how high the roof is that they are standing on, whether there is a cat below, etc.
- 'who' is learning, who is the intended learner, is there an intended learner/s? - you might refer to The Pope sat on the Chair pictures:
and you can refer to the analyses, here ...
- with or without instruction, modelling, demonstration
- 'learning' - run out of ideas here - maybe later ...
