On Complex Theories, Social Networking, and Learning. Response to Donald L. Gilstrap

John St. Julien is an independent scholar, community technology activist, and educational consultant living and working in Lafayette, LA, USA. His interests include family, curriculum theory, complexity, learning theory, social practices, interface design, and information infrastructures. Current projects involve curriculum design and the provision of technical support and infrastructure for a French language focused collaboration between classrooms in Africa, South America, and North America, and interface design for a mapping app. He’s currently fascinated by the potential for perceptual learning offered by new touch interfaces on mobile devices and hopes to be able to turn his attention to design in that area soon.
