I have changed the rights on the googledoc... seems i had it set so only i could edit it. Feel free to add your questions, comments or uh... feelings in the documents. Add sections. whatever works :)
If I try to define my own role in this group I guess it´ll be the practitioner. As a language teacher in a swedish gymnasium I´m trying to empower my students with a rhizomatic approach to knowledge. Not one - but many. Building lines of flight or multiplicities together, not just my definition of learning or my test of their "knowledge mass".
As I´m not that fluid in english (speaking/writing) there is somewhat dauting challenge discussing this or trying to get around D&G glossary and then discuss it with the community. But I´ll try.
For what its worth I´ll open up my classroom for experiments and discussion, as long as my students thinks its ok.
I´ll open up another meny at my blog and try to translate some of the blogposts about rhizomatic learning, and what material I´ve used. So far its mostly D&Gs books, a review from Tobey Steeves and blogposts from Tobey Steeves, Mary Ann Reilly and Dave Cormier.

Tobey Steeves Hi Per,
Above and beyond Kaustuv Roy, re. Deleuze + curriculum, these two deserve caveats, but both = worth exploring, too: Check out Inna Semetsky and Jason Wallin.

And so the challenge begins. I have committed to making the work of D&G (Deleuze and Guattari) as transparent as possible. I think their work can provide a compelling narrative for change, and, I guess, I've gone about doing a little Knowledge Translation around their work. Something purists have been critical of. (Not making special reference to anyone here)
Tobey and The Deleuzenator (and probably others here) are deeply embedded in the language specific to D&G's work. Words like "war machine" and "organs" have a very specific meaning and things like "reterritorialisation" a critical concept that my spell checker doesn't recognize. So what to do?

Tobey Steeves and Joyce Seitzinger like this.
Tobey Steeves Cheers for taking on the challenge! :D
Maybe Gillroy (2000) = helpful here. Writing re. problem of using notions like 'fascism', he suggests we get immersed in the "forbidding and gnawingly uncomfortable". Also reminded of D&G, who argue that sometimes monstrous concepts = necessary.
I think - big assumption here - that this conceptual density i...

So, we already have bucket loads of papers. I have uploaded about 5% from my library. So many papers, I wonder if most of them will not be read, or at least read in depth. Digitised information flow is a feature of the control society. Does the acentring of rhizomes only serve to dividuate, to enmesh us further in modulatory machines? I am not sure. I will be engaging in this group with interest. How happy are we to engage with Deleuze and his ideas that we need to de-individuate (although not necessarily dividuate)?
War machines, there is only glorious death and suicidal collapse or restriation...

Tobey Steeves Printing off 6-7 of them now ... they'll fall into the queue, of course, but certainly tasty additions, and well-appreciated!
Re. the outcomes of uploads, reading habits and whatnot, I toss a bunch of arrows, let folks pick up the ones that resonate. The end. ;)

The Deleuzenator And that's the point isn't it, in our attempts to change we are agents of reterritorialisation...
7th April
The Deleuzenator That sounds a little more negative than I intended. Point I was trying to make is that I am interested to see how this group combats the reterritorialisation.

How do upload articles from my computer to Mendeley if I don't use an online library?
Tobey Steeves When you upload articles to your Mendeley library they'll become an online library. :)

A place for us to gather all the work done in rhizomatic learning and associated work. The group link goes to a group document i hope will become a lit review for rhizomes in education. Image is a quaking aspen from http://www.flickr.com/photos/98857801@N00/2218717601/
