When thinking of Education, Technology, and Culture it almost seems difficult to see the relationship only by reading the terms and not thinking about them.  However, ponder on each idea separately and think of each individual meaning.  In actuality, it seems that Education, Technology, and Culture work hand in hand–there is a cycle associated here.  For the past week, it seems that I have been working endlessly to get connected with my classmates via Instant Messenger, Blogs, Email, Blackboard, etc.  Nonetheless, when I look at this learning community I think, “Are the people that are listed on the roster the only members of my learning community.”  If I were in a traditional classroom, then yes those members may very well be the only people that play a part in my learning atmosphere.  Nevertheless, in the online world the learning community can almost seem endless.  When you look at your gator, do you only see the people that are enrolled in this class?  No, I have a variety of feeds that I read in to and they are not just the members of this class.  In the past, I have had people outside of class comment on my posts and I learn from what they have to say.  With that said, there comes a variety of cultures that interact in the online learning community.  Nonetheless, the learning community is expanded around the world–we are not limited to only the members on our roster.
