CHANGEd: How ’bout we challenge patterns and routines? 60-60-60 #48.5

Some say the future belongs to the pattern see-ers. I think our future belongs to the pattern makers and the pattern challengers.

How ’bout we challenge patterns and routines more in school? Worst thing that could happen – we surprise some folks and realize the world won’t stop spinning. Best case scenario – we open new lenses of perceiving and learn from our risk…discover something new…create something better!

[Really, I just wanted @mmhoward to have to write for 61 days! I love what she’s writing!]

CHANGEd: What if schools factored in experiment days like snow days? 60-60-60 #6

When scheduling, many schools factor in “snow days” – days that won’t be re-calendared for inclement weather cancellations. What if schools factored in experiment days like snow days? We could plan for radical pilots and seemingly outlandish learning designs to test various hypotheses. We could learn by doing and negate the argument, “We have too much to cover.” Call ’em…”grow days!”
