This sounds like a good area of inquiry Maha.

To me the whole thing can be resolved across all skill levels by the hospitality of welcoming connection. I’ve participated in MOOCs as a discussion monitor with the only directive being to reach out who post and receive no replies of go silent. The idea isn’t to “out lurkers” or force participation, but to offer the courtesy of being noticed.

Your way of welcoming in your blogs is an example of INCLUSION Maha as is the whole personality of Inge De Waard who you know. http://ignatiawebs.blogspot.ca/

Do you think we need to know exclusion to practice inclusion? When you feel like an “impostor” what IS that feeling?
