- 13. Universal Brain Global Brain: a metaphor for the worldwide intelligent network formed by people together with the information and communication technologies that connect them into an "organic" whole. _Coined byPeterRussell in 1982 Organicism: In 1993, Gregory Stock proposed a modern vision of superorganism formed by humans and machines, which he calls "Metaman". In this organic metaphor, the analogue of the nervous system is the global brain. The exchanges of information on Earth are processing at a high rate and speed, similar to the functioning of a nervous system. Encyclopedism: Free associative possibilities - universal knowledge network , Encyclopedia, Information Science, World Brain, WWW, Wikipedia and more. Naturally the brain can link different kinds of information without any apparent link. Inspired by this Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web thought that computers could become much more powerful if they could imitate this functioning, that is make links between any arbitrary piece of information. Emergentism: This approach focuses on the emergent aspects of the evolution and development of complexity, including the spiritual, psychological, and moral-ethical aspects of the global brain.

- 18. A Reflection of My Experiences It has been about four months since the beginning of this column, our readers have reflected on a number of ways ranging from simple comments to critical review talks. From the outset the motivation of this column was to create a participatory environment, a reflective circle, an engaging event for scholars and professionals in colorful ways. To take this to the next level, on Saturday 2nd of February, 2013 I have triggered our readers by inviting them to write reflective articles on the title, A Reflection of My Experiences. I believe every one of us have unique experiences during the course of our life, experiences that no one else has experienced; experiences that could be an awe- inspiring, motivating and unique lesson to others. Rivers of Consciousness is inviting readers to articulate their unique experiences, especially experiences on academic, social, professional and generally living-experience encounters. The literature being an Interior Monologue or any other literary, writers are motivated to write their story in an abstract or philosophical approach so as to make it a literature to think upon. Our hope is to sail on the collective boats of realization in the rivers of thoughtful true stories, which ultimately make the Ocean of Prosperity!
- 19. Reflection, believed, resultes in: Critical Consciousness in which learners become: ACTORS, not observers AUTHORS of their own decisions. When we as learners do not reflect on our place in the world or critically evaluate the validity of information presented to us, Freire claimed, we become passive and superficial, accepting faulty logic, untested ideas, and allowing ourselves to be swayed by deceptive arguments and polemics.
