Seth Godin on Chaos Theory
Got goosebumps reading this Seth Godin post last night. He is describing exactly what we’re building at eduFire.
Education is largely handmade, not mass produced. That makes it difficult to share best practices and to figure out how to turn mediocre classrooms into great ones. Maybe, just maybe, video of the best teaching will do as much to encourage some teachers as the cell phone video does to discourage the rest of us.
Um, can I get a hell yeah?!!!
While the classroom videos in the post he links to are tough to watch they are a stark reminder of all the work that needs to be done. Optimal learning and creativity simply cannot take place in a fear-based environment. It’s going to be incredibly fun to work with others to radically transform this industry. It won’t happen overnight but as it starts to change it’s going to be amazing to watch.
