Excellent and very interesting suggestion. For regularly working with seniors on their use of technology, this will be very useful!
Interesting that the next two responses are full of pronouns.
This business of words that evoke a sense of entity and more personally, identity, goes deep. Essentially this discussion goes into the question of how to create a safe space, a safe environment to enter and participate/play in?
An interesting thing to note is that identity (a 'me' in the picture) only shows up when there is a break in the action. When action is uninterrupted, when the 'flow state' is present, there is no 'I'. There's just being in action. A case can be made that the function of an 'I' is to show up and handle a 'break in being' thereby restoring the flow of being in action, Put more conventionally, a 'You' and a 'I' only show up when something is wrong, when who we are being isn't enough, and doesn't carry the day. Then and only then does a personality show up to fix what is wrong.
Once the 'problem' is handled and 'we' are back in flow, no one, no individual is present, only being in action. This is easy to confirm. When you are totally engaged in something, are you there for you or is there just actions?
This is the realm of ontology, the study of being, and while it may at first seem miles from the business of KM, this topic "Making KM more accessible for non-geeks" crosses over and requires the distinctions and clarity ontological discussion can provide.
This fragment:
is a perfect example of missing distinctions.
We are all expert in the realm of doing things and having things. Our culture requires it. However, we are all always beginners in the realm of being. No one has any prowess in that domain.
The book "Speaking Being" available on Amazon, makes a good entry point into these waters.
It takes an unusually high degree of openness and commitment to get pass the initial frustration and fear that ontological discussion evokes for most.
Hmmm, not unlike the intimidation 'programming' evokes in the uninitiated.
