Keeping It Simple<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It is amazing how when you take something like your own digital network and look at it, really look at it in a visual representation, you see connections and intertwining that you hadn’t known were there. I categorized my network into four ‘zones’: Work, School, Personal Socials and what I lovingly refer to as the Bleeding Zone. Let me break that down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Work<\/strong>: In this space, I find my network within Office 365, Teams and Outlook (email). I did not choose the tools and platforms used in this space, and it is as Veletsianos (2016) describes a ‘group<\/em>‘, in that it is controlled by the institution and entry and exit is managed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

School<\/strong>: Here I find my “learning network<\/em>” (Veletsianos, 2016), and while a portion of this network has a gatekeeper (Royal Roads University), this network does have a back-channel in Discord that allows us to dip our toe into a ‘community’ structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bleeding Zone<\/strong>: This is where school intersects with work. Twitter and LinkedIn are both enmeshed in my work network and my school network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personal Socials<\/strong>: This is just me in social media. I control who participates and I choose what is posted based purely on my life (typically) outside of work and school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
