Sense-making (capitalized), when I use it, refers to Brenda Dervin's Sense-making methodology. As a result of my understanding of the research into embodied cognition and social learning, I have been integrating Sense-making into my work. Btw, that also means that I have been expanding my collaborative network to include Communications folks. My view of inter-disciplinary work is not that I muddle through other folks' disciplines, but rather that I find collaborators in those fields. But I'll let them speak for themselves, as they clamber onto our wiki.

- Human studies and user studies: A call for methodological interdisciplinarity - This paper is one of a set that address issues in disciplinary structure in disciplines that I would consider to overlap with Digital Arts and Sciences. More on that later
- Sense-Making Methodology reader: Selected writings of Brenda Dervin. Cresskill, NJ: Hampton Press. Available from http://amazon.com. We found this to be an invaluable resource, and ended up ordering one of our own rather than borrowing the library copies.
