I’ve been an appreciative contributor to the Technology in Literacies Education Special Interest Group at the International Literacy Association for a couple of years now.

I’ve included a few photos that I took of the garden while I was contemplating the connections between the work I do as a teacher and scholar of online reading, and the ecological systems that enable flowers to bloom. Complex systems, ecology, interactions — how can these images help us to consider online reading instruction that allows complex learned behaviours to emerge?
