    Hey Chris... responding to an older post of yours on this thread, where you wrote something about it being "interesting to create theory backward from practice"...

    I've been reading Donald Schön recently.. (The Reflective Practitioner)... his take on it, is that it's only backward, from the perspective of "technical rationality", in which theory supposedly comes first.... yet in actual practice, we are often engaging in "practical experiments" designed to test our "theories in action"... as a result of which, practice often develops beyond the existing theories.

    And, it is still very useful of course, to do the work of linking our discoveries in practice, with the existing academic conversations...
