Course collaboration - week 2

It is starting to get a bit unnerving as the discussion board has been rather quiet. We are all reading and exploring possible topic areas. By definition, that is solitary work. Only one person who has pretty clear ideas - at least about her broad topic area - has been posting regularly. One person has posted that she somehow missed the suggested initial readings and is now catching up on those. Interesting question, can reading only been done as a solitary activity? Is is possible to make it collaborative?

I have decided my broad topic area - extended cognition and augmented cognition. And I can see how this can be linked to AI - one topic area already identified by someone else. I have ordered several books but I think I may be reading too deeply, too soon. Perhaps a few short articles, videos etc may be more conducive to discussing these areas collaboratively.
