Gaia Orientation
Orientation Integrative Ecosocial Design
Gaia Orientation doc.
Above is the Gaia Orientation documet (embedded and attached) I created by uniting all the content I created through the 6 months. This was a great process of looking back over this material I recommend it to any associate.
Journal image - Hub Guild
Below is a patterns idea I had and wrote about in my journal. The idea is a Permaculture “Hub Guild”. The Hub Guild or Metta Guild would be a bridging guild, made up of leaders from regional guilds to facilitate trans-bioregional initiatives and oppertunities. This idea is branching from my work with my skillflex advisor, Zev of Permaculture in Action. He has got me on the idea of a Permaculture “Listening Project” whose aim would be to create a white-paper on teaching/implementing permaculture. A white paper is basicly a patterns-language about a specific topic.
Oven cut-away
I drew this cut-away of an oven in my journal to explain to people how it functions when burning.

The Active Learner
Active Learner Mindmap
The mindmap above is the original mindmap I made during orientation about active learning. It is nice to be able to compare what you have learned by book to how you experience it.
Permaculture Resource and FB Oven page
My permaculture webpage (http://permaculturesource.wikispaces.com) has been doing really well. I also just recieved three messages from people on google+ thanking me for the resource. See webpage stats image below. I wanted this page to be a group effort but have yet to find willing individuals. If you are interested in finding and uploading resources let me know.
The stats below of my oven Facebook page show people like me sharing the photos of this recent oven build in Guatemala. Its great to share the experience!
Pattern writing
As a large part of this coming year is dedicated to writing a pattern language for teaching Permaculture I have started the process of research (see mindmap and bookmark rss feed below). The pattern writing form to the left was created for my upcoming project (please don't fill it out). If you are interested in submitting a pattern for teaching permaculture or the design process email me at simha.bode@icloud.com and I can add you to the project web page.
