#makeschooldifferent
When it comes to education, we have to stop pretending that…
- There is a magic bullet.
- Chasing your tail is better than sitting still.
- Today’s fad is better than yesterday’s fad.
- Symbolism is a substitute for substance.
- Merry-go-rounds make great transports.
I think that I will dip my toe into the rapidly rising current of Scott McLeod’s #makeschooldifferent challenge. And as I dip my toe, I think I will grab a raft to navigate the waves of the rising current.
I will also continue to add to my Evernote “Stop Pretending” page. I will expand the list of things that stimulate my thinking and challenge my paradigm. I will take my initial five as topics to later expand upon. Yet more importantly is the challenge to actually stop pretending and influence others to do so also.
