A great reminder...
...of what it means to be an educator. Educators should be connectors, facilitators, and expedition leaders! Taking students on expeditions of learning is such a great metaphor for why I got into education in the first place. A collective motivation to understanding the world around us. How powerful is that! Strange, it doesn't include textbooks, back of the book problems, or standardized test scores yet the curriculum is still rigorous. Fantastic.
Indeed. This is great. We need more classes such as these in our education system today. We need to let kids set themselves free and be full with one another.
Internet Marketing Coach
Wow...wonderful video I will share. Not only for education, but for people in the Internet Marketing World. We are similar in teaching methodologies to our adult students learning the new wave of marketing.
One has to experience climbing the mountain to reach the top. Thank you for this wonderful inspiring post.
