After a while, I have engaged Direct Democracy, and found that the deliberation field is critical for the development of successful direct democracy and participatory democracy, so I have used my model to try to understand how "lay people" reason. Because I was not restricted by philosophy, I could enter in to my model also knowledge from brain research. After experiencing with real life deliberation, and experiencing wide variety of on-line and off-line deliberation, I have started to adjust the model for deliberation. This time, I have integrated knowledge from the deliberation research filed, in order to be relevant to the experts in deliberation. In 2012, with the help of Dr. Azi Lev-On, I organized conferences of experts in the field, and we discused a vrity of methods of deliberation. This was a boost for my experience, and led me to open this wiki. I hope we can build here theories that will explain the mechanism of deliberation, and will create a ground for developing edvance deliberation methods and on-line tools.
 
Today I am lecturing in Ariel University Center, and Future-Center leader in Ranana municipality.
 
==Questions in Mind==
===Why do we need Deliberation?===
What is the benefits of wide deliberation compared to small group deliberation?
 
* '''Share of interests and working as a group:''' By using good deliberation (we should try to explain what is good deliberation), we may get more people into collaboration, because their private interests are better incorporated into the doing of the group. In ideal-free groups, this will enable larger groups to gather. In Hirarchical groups that pay people to come to work, this will loosens the "ego" (persevering self intrest). And will let people contribute more to the good of the group. For instance, I need a room for the meeting of citizens, but other department need this room for storage of old staff. Because we do not have the same goal, and we may be rivals for power and promotion, the other department will not have intrest to give me the room. But if we will work as a team, and we will be rewarded as a team (and each of us as a contributer to the good of the group), we may be able to give the citizens better products. Especially if the citizens will know that the room is the contribution of department of X.
** '''Private reward''':
