I’m reading an interesting book at the moment – Managing transitions by William Bridges. He talks about change being a situational, external thing which is about starting something new, while transition is more psychological and internal and involves letting go of the old reality. When a change occurs, between the ending and the new beginning is a neutral zone, which he sees as an opportunity to change habits. Maybe this is an argument for introducing good IL habits as soon as possible when students start university, while they are in their neutral zone.
