Progressive reliance on sensemaking in systems rather than as individuals
![Page 10: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Sensemaking
“Sensemaking is a motivated, continuous effort to understand connections . . . in order to anticipate their trajectories and act effectively”
(Klein et al. 2006)
![Page 11: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
We can’t understand how people make sense without considering the system

But it’s not only about sensemaking in crisis situations.
It can be far more mundane.

Exceptional performance requires tight coupling of people, roles, systems, context, and actions
![Page 19: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The problem is that our socio-technical systems are becoming more technical and less social
![Page 20: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
To avoid getting lost in the “mass of inconsequential”
(Bush, 1945)
We still need control, but the points are different than where the education system has assigned them in the past.
![Page 21: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
How can centralized aims be achieved through distributed means?
![Page 22: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The current state of work & the internet is antagonistic to existing practices in organizations
Internet/mobiles/web fragments
Coherence is needed for action/performance
![Page 23: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
In response, systems have become more rule or algorithmically based
Social systems don’t scale with information’s abundance/complexity
![Page 24: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Hence, analytics
![Page 26: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
“Imagination no longer comes as cheaply as it did in the past. The slightest move in the virtual landscape has to be paid for in lines of code.”
Latour (2007)
![Page 27: Social networked learning in complex information environmentsinnovationsinelearning.gmu.edu/assets/Innovations/presentations-20… · “Whether from government transparency initiatives,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051923/601120cbb86c9901d760a5af/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Learning analytics is the measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of data about learners and their contexts, for purposes of understanding and optimizing learning and the environments in which it occurs

“Whether from government transparency initiatives, leaks or Freedom of Information requests, journalists are drowning in more documents than they can ever hope to read.
We’re building an interactive system where computers do the visualization, while a human guides the exploration.”
