Learning in practice:
•
Who do your learners look to as models of behavior?
•
How do your learners decide who is a good model?
Learning in educational settings:
•
How can you leverage the learning experience of one learner to shape

•
How can you create a culture of active learning and awareness?
Amplifying social networks
