Wardle relates to ecologies because it deals with communication and writing in a specific community. Wardle talks about writing in engineering. People that are in that community will be very familiar with the writing and be able to understand the discourse."At times, however, participation in new communities requires accepting for oneself identities that are at odds with the values of other communities to which one belongs (Lave and Wenger; Russell, "Rethinking") When people choose to be a part of another community they are then choosing to participate in the norms that they have set for that community.
