Despite ongoing critiques of this mindset as inaccurate and a barrier to learningand identity formation (e.g., [20], [21], [22]), some academic communities, such as theengineering research laboratory groups that co-author Wylie studies, continue to talk aboutnovices according to this model. This approach does great injustice to newcomers to expertcommunities as well as robs experts of opportunities to learn from “a wisdom of peripherality”([23] p. 216), i.e., the invaluable perspective of outsiders.
