<div>Peter Mortensen suggested an edit for your answer to "What factors facilitate collective intelligence?"<br><br>I recommend you checkout Pierre Levy's 'networks of collective intelligence' approach, which integrates 6 main components of collective intelligence.<br>
<br>See <a href="http://pierrelevy.posterous.com/the-networks-of-collective-intelligence" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></u>http://pierrelevy.postero<u>us.com/...</a><br><br>I have collated various materials on the topic at <a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/Category:Intelligence" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></u>http://p2pfoundation.net/<u>Categor...</a> and <a href="http://delicious.com/mbauwens/Collective-Intelligence" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></u>http://delicious.com/mbau<u>wens/Co...</a><br>
<br>Here are three more interpretative schemes:<br><br>Dave Snowden has proposed the Cynefin framework for identifying the <br>best match between knowledge styles and reality:<br><br>"It has five domains, characterised by the relationship between <br>
cause and effect. The first four domains are:<br><br><ul><li><b>Simple</b>, in which <b>the relationship between cause and <br>effect is obvious to all</b>, the approach is to <i>Sense - Categorise -<br> Respond</i> and we can apply best practice.<br>
</li></ul><ul><li><b>Complicated</b>, in which <b>the relationship between cause <br>and effect requires analysis</b> or some other form of investigation <br>and/or the application of expert knowledge, the approach is to <i>Sense -<br>
Analyze - Respond</i> and we can apply good practice.<br></li></ul><ul><li><b>Complex</b>, in which <b>the relationship between cause and <br>effect can only be perceived in retrospect, but not in advance</b>, the <br>approach is to <i>Probe - Sense - Respond</i> and we can sense emergent <br>
practice.<br></li></ul><ul><li><b>Chaotic</b>, in which there is <b>no relationship between <br>cause and effect at systems level</b>, the approach is to <i>Act - Sense<br> - Respond</i> and we can discover novel practice.<br>
</li></ul><span style="background-color: rgb(229, 189, 178); color: rgb(168, 36, 0);"><span><br></span></span>The fifth domain is <b>Disorder</b>, which is <b>the state of not <br>knowing what type of causality exists</b>, in which state people will <br>
revert to the comfort zone in making a decision."<br>(<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynefin" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></u>http://en.wikipedia.org/<u>wiki/Cyn...</a>)<br><br>See the video: Shawn Callahan on the <br>
Cynefin Framework<span style="background-color: rgb(229, 189, 178); color: rgb(168, 36, 0);"><span><br><br></span></span><br><br><b>2.</b><br><br>Framework from George Dyson in Darwin<br> Among The Machines, summarized by Kevin Kelly [4]:<br>
<br><ul><li><b>One species, many minds</b>: The official future. We <br>interbreed among our genetic improvements and keep our individuality <br>distinct, and our species identity intact.<br></li></ul><ul><li><b>One species, one mind</b>: Through electronic mediation, we <br>
join together to create a superorganism. A suprahuman.<br></li></ul><ul><li><b>Many species, many minds</b>: Ultimate diversity. Humans <br>fork in their evolution to create new breeds. Some may even join <br>machines in cyborgian partnerships.<br>
</li></ul><ul><li><b>Many species, one mind</b>: We fork in biology but unite in <br>the noosphere. Millions of species share the same mind.<br></li></ul><span style="background-color: rgb(229, 189, 178); color: rgb(168, 36, 0);"><span><br>
<br><br></span></span><b>3.</b><br><br>Henry Jenkins:<br><br>"We can argue that there are a range of different models of <br>collective intelligence shaping the digital realm at the present time. <br>We might distinguish broadly between three different models: <span style="background-color: rgb(229, 189, 178); color: rgb(168, 36, 0);"><span><br>
<br></span></span><br><br>1) <b>An aggregative model which assumes that we can collect data<br> based on the autonomous and anonymous decisions of �the crowd�</b> and <br>use it to gain insights into their collective behavior. This is the <br>
model which shapes Digg and to some degree, YouTube. <br><br><span style="background-color: rgb(229, 189, 178); color: rgb(168, 36, 0);"><span><br><br></span></span>2) a curatorial model where grassroots intermediaries seek to <br>
represent their various constituencies and bring together information <br>that they think is valuable. This is the model which shapes the <br>blogosphere. <span style="background-color: rgb(229, 189, 178); color: rgb(168, 36, 0);"><span><br>
<br></span></span><br><br>3) <b>a deliberative model where many different voices come <br>together, define problems, vet information, and find solutions which <br>would be impossible for any individual to achieve</b>. This is the model<br>
shaping Wikipedia or even more powerfully alternate universe games. Of <br>the three, the deliberative model offers the most democratic potentials,<br> especially when it is tempered by ethical and political commitments to <br>
diversity. This is the model which Pierre Levy describes in his book, <br>Collective Intelligence. Levy�s account stresses the affirmative value <br>placed on diversity in such a culture. The more diverse the community, <br>
the broader range of possible information and insights can inform the <br>deliberative process."<br>(<a href="http://henryjenkins.org/2009/11/reflections_on_cultural_politi_1.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></u>http://henryjenkins.org/<u>2009/11/...</a>)<br>
