Kind of hard... how to prepare an open process, knowing that all meaning and fixations are up to the process itself and the energy of 30 people starting a one week exploration on the issue of dance/choreography education?

In reference to Pirkko's text about the potential of using weblogs within education I'd like to refer to an educational model I came across during the mode05 preparations and which I think is quite interesting - not just in its structure, but also in how internet technology is used to make a process of research and knowledge production transparent and useful for other people.
