The Art of Learning: A Five-Image Story

What makes a story?  That is a question that emerged during a Twitter chat last week that I wasn’t a part of…but somehow kept popping up in my twitter feed.  And this week our CLMOOC make of the week is to tell a story in five images.  I often use images to support my blog posts, prompts for my thinking, metaphors for ideas I am working to understand.  I don’t often think of myself as a storyteller…but I’ve decided to give it a try today.

I’ve decided to call this five-photo story “The Art of Learning”…and it purposely does not have a linear structure, no purposeful beginning, middle and end.  And yet, it reads like a story to me.

What sense do you make of the story?  If you were to put words to it, what would it say?  What songs would it sing?
