Hi Michelle - such a great question! Over the course of the conference, we asked folks to respond to questions about their first jobs, their current jobs, what they are learning or teaching now and what they want to learn or teach next. It quickly became clear that the individual storylines are nicely represented in a mandala approach (moving from the outside toward the center of the mural) rather than a customary linear approach. It is the perfect way to illustrate the common interests of our SAS community and spark interest in what life learners are exploring. The drawings help made evident connections between our conference attendees that could otherwise be hidden or even unknown. I hope this helps answer your inquiry!
