Sociosocratic Learning & Seminars

Sociosocratic Learning & Seminars

Every time a new group comes together around a topic, they face a fundamental challenge: how to move from being spectators to participants, from consumers of knowledge to contributors to the conversation. Traditional education often leaves people well-informed but voiceless — they can recite facts but lack the confidence, vocabulary, or sense of belonging to engage meaningfully with their community of practice.

Sociosocratic learning takes a different path. It recognizes that shared language has what I call "an elemental power to help a group form." But beyond formation, it creates something essential: the agency to participate as a peer rather than an observer. This happens not through lectures or tests, but through the act of creating something together.

My Markdown Bibliographic Citation Format

Bibliographic Citation Format Rules

These are my new rules (2024-12-05) for formatting bibligraphic content, for use in my blog Life With Alacrity and for use with other publications that use Markdown.

The primary goal is to leverage the Markdown format for readability, while supporting more complicated annotations and citations for the modern, largely online internet sources of content, rather than purely academic sources. A secondary goal is to ease transition to/from more traditional bibliographic formats using regular expression substitutions.

Markdown Citations

  • Title: The citation should begin with title of the work, which should be bold-italicized. The title should use the case style of the original title, if known, otherwise use Title Case (i.e., capitalizing all major words).

Polis Play is a game that blends the art of governance with the dynamics of play. At its core, it's about the ever-evolving landscape of rules and strategies, where players engage in crafting, discussing, and amending rules to shape the game's progression.

This game is inspired by Peter Suber's Nomic and a quote from a science-fiction book:
