    A comment on Talk: Angela Lee Duckworth: The key to success? Grit

    May 9 2013: In her talk, Angela said she doesn't know where this "grit" comes from, but I know that I got most of mine from my parents.
    I think part of the problem with "lazy" students is that too many of them have been "passed" through the education system without being held accountable for their work.

  • A comment on Conversation: What can we do to change education?

    May 7 2013: Waiting for "Superman" is a documentary film. The film analyzes the failures of the American public education system by following several students as they strive to be accepted into a charter school.
    It is a very powerful and moving documentary that asks the questions: "What can we do to help change the educational system in the United States which appears to be failing so many students?"

    I think that we are moving away from the model in which learning is organized around stable, usually hierarchical institutions that have served as the main gateways to education and social mobility. Replacing that model is a new system in which learning is best conceived of as a flow, where learning resources are not scarce but widely available, opportunities for learning are abundant, and learners increasingly have the ability to autonomously dip into and out of continuous learning flows.
