Lane's Dream : That kids know how to learn- that they completely understand the stages of real learning. So they can independently and self directedly navigate through those stages to begin to learn in areas of passion for them. Engage in learning that ultimately makes a difference in their life and the life of others. Knowing how to learn but ensuring that as you learn, that you are doing the best thinking you can. Get depth and breadth of thinking as they move through the stages with rigor. They need to own the journey!
So they learn how to find out at many different stages of the model. Finding out tools are diverse and they need to pick the right one -differentiate through tool- they learn how to make the right choice.
Need tools, planners, processes and frameworks to help organize and plan to gain rigor.
Ultimately its about providing the tools to enable kids to invent ideate and innovate.............
Eventually they can plan their own journey selecting their own tool along the way.
Good change agents aren't afraid to look at their weakness. Your weaknesses are your opportunities.
Dancing in the Light - perceptions and perspectives on inquiry leaning Marcia Behrenbreuch
"Teachers are perhaps like choreographers. They can provide the initial inspiration; they can plan the steps. They can rehearse the skills; they can tell when the performance is ready. But does a choreographer exist without dancers? The dancers improvise and change the steps. They bring their own unique skills and abilities.They bring their own creativity.But at some point, when the curtain goes up the dancers are on their own.They follow their passions; they solve the problems that arise. And the choreographer stands behind the curtain in the darkness Watching the dancers in the light."
