Final Presentation

Education used to be about transfer of information from teacher to student. This past winter students from the New Hampton School changed this dynamic as they engaged with a cyclical rather than linear mode of education. One question led to the next.

Asking questions is dangerous because it empowers us to find answers and make meaning for ourselves. When that happens, advertisers, governments, religions and even societies loose their grip on us. We are free to do the right thing for ourselves, and this I believe, will ultimately lead to the right thing for our world.

Monday Night

As groups came back in last night they reflected on their day, posted updates to their blogs and got ready for some free time activities with their groups.

JUA 2007

We'll be kicking off the JUA for 2007 on Friday - until then enjoy a sneak peak at my video for School Meeting.

This video is both a specific statement about what the JUA is about and also a general statement on the challenges and opportunities in education today.
