Dear At,

I don`t know which consequences this last sentences has. Does God hate
everyone who is into the thinking of radical constructivism, Zen or NLP
? -bg-
I have problems to get informations for myself when I ask "what can I
learn from the story of Adam & Eve". But that's a different topic....

Yes, Maturana / Varela say the same. All autopoietic systems have
dissipative structures but not all dissipative organized systems are
autopoietic. I will read an introduction of dissip.structures soon. What
do you recommend more, "order out of chaos", "end of certaitny" or the one
with Nicholais ?

I really like your explanation how you bring passion into student's
learning-life.

I am practicing it in a close way with a NLP technique. I go into states
of trances where I dig out a picture where I loved learning. Then I
describe the pic very exactly with all submodalities (don't know if its a
common word in ENglish). Then I compare it with the descriptions of my
learning-picture where I got bored or frustrated and correct the last one.
I just change important controllers (which have influence on my emotions)
which make my movie or pic.

all the best,
Ragnar
