Context Collapse
Building your personal learning network (PLN) 9
“The audience you’re speaking to is not the only

Bonnie Stewart @bonstewart
Context collapse is that moment when your networks
and identities overlap in unexpected ways, both good
and bad.
Be aware that it will happen.
With foresight, the good hugely outweighs the bad.
