Dennis Raphael reframed the concept of a learning community by stating:

This implies the "shoulds" of how I am sure we all aspire to work. In
practice then how does it function going back to the original question...

Disappointment is a relative term based on personal judgement. Working in
asynchronous environments such as Click4hp, means there will be an ebb and
flow to the content and activity. I have come to see this as a pacing issue
in the context of other activities and projects on the go. Learning to work
with staggered dialogue, overtime, and across geographic and cultural
boundaries can be both a challenge and a joy.
There is also a difference between working in large public online workspaces
such as this and private closed venues where participants all know one another.
Perhaps this is one quality to examine of how a learning community functions
in a virtual venue.
Thoughts?
