Re-Imagining Education Now is the time to re-imagine education people keep saying. This is what I imagine: No classrooms No teachers No subjects No tests No grades No things you must do Let students set their own goals Provide help when a student is stuck Build (online) curricula that are so much fun and so exciting that students can’t wait to enroll Build so many curricula that the students are overwhelmed with choices about what to do Change school buildings into places were students are safe and can do what they want to do Change the emphasis from “knowing” to “doing.” A student’s record is about actual accomplishments. #teaching #school #reimagining

Good ideas from the learning point of view - but how do you know how good the person is in a particular skill they have learned independently? Isn’t such a measure required when they enter the workplace?

People seem to be motivated to learn what is necessary to do what they want to do. To elicit this motivation and to help them learn how to work with others requires affective as well as cognitive and skill learning. Experiential methods are the core could provide the vehicle.

Self-organizing loop: Learning by doing <-> Doing by learning! (Can work for both humans and AI, w/ some guard rails!)

Love the shift in focus from "knowing" to "doing"... building a portfolio of accomplishments.
