Frame for Work: The Hermeneutics of Knowledge Frameworks and Ecological Formism

A Case Study of the Ecological Formism Framework

The above diagram is an integrated ecological approach to social cognition.

It was formed by two sub-frameworks: the Ecological Formism framework and the Ecological Actualism framework.

In Frame for Work: The Ontology of Knowledge Frameworks and Ecological Actualism, I discussed five moments of knowledge frameworks.

In Social Moves: Thematic Zones, Thematic Areas, and Social Territory, I used the Knowledge Discovery Canvas as an example to discuss the Thematic Space Theory (TST) Framework which is a sub-framework of the the Ecological Formism framework.

This article aims to discuss four types of knowing behind knowledge frameworks from the perspective of the Ecological Formism framework.

I will use the Container Thinking (the Ecological Practice approach) as an example.
