Cheating as learning: the story so far

So that’s the end of the first week of #rhizo14.  I’ve made new friends, thought of new things and had one of the most wonderfully inspiring weeks ever. As I said on Saturday night:

Yesterday Dave Cormier shouted out for posts which summarised the week. I was busy writing about D&G for my supervisors (serendipidously) so I didn’t have time but I want to capture in words the sense of euphoria I have felt this week. I’ve talked more about D&G than I have for a long time, I’ve read loads of blog posts by other nomads in #rhizo14 that have sparked off new ideas in my head, and I am thinking more clearly about my own thesis now.

Looking forward to week 2 🙂
