huge bravo to Jared...
and to this new american school family..

finland
from Monica Anderson on fb
Yet one of the most significant things Sahlberg said passed practically unnoticed. "Oh," he mentioned at one point, "and there are no private schools in Finland."
This notion may seem difficult for an American to digest, but it's true. Only a small number of independent schools exist in Finland, and even they are all publicly financed. None is allowed to charge tuition fees. There are no private universities, either. This means that practically every person in Finland attends public school, whether for pre-K or a Ph.D.
there's no word for accountability in Finnish," he later told an audience at the Teachers College of Columbia University. "Accountability is something that is left when responsibility has been subtracted."
From his point of view, Americans are consistently obsessed with certain questions: How can you keep track of students' performance if you don't test them constantly? How can you improve teaching if you have no accountability for bad teachers or merit pay for good teachers? How do you foster competition and engage the private sector? How do you provide school choice?And while Americans love to talk about competition, Sahlberg points out that nothing makes Finns more uncomfortable. In his book Sahlberg quotes a line from Finnish writer named Samuli Paronen: "Real winners do not compete." It's hard to think of a more un-American idea, but when it comes to education, Finland's success shows that the Finnish attitude might have merits. There are no lists of best schools or teachers in Finland. The main driver of education policy is not competition between teachers and between schools, but cooperati
also.. no sports...
still not settling well that we are determining success via pisa test..

tim tebow
my son read tebow's book. then suggested i read it. so i did.
one thing that really resonated.. tebow's 600 situps and pushups a day. i'm thinking that's a huge part of what has made him so good. he did that on his own.. he's the only one that made him do it.
i feel that way about some type of detox or self-reflection.. if we could just get people using their heads, without others telling them how to use them or what to do or learn.. etc ... we'd have people cranking it up - per choice. putting in the 600 or the 10,000 hours to become expert...
no?

I don’t know. I go around saying we have to believe in the impossible. That’s what I’ve learned from this time on the Internet — believe the impossible. Wikipedia is impossible. Everything we know about human nature says that Wikipedia cannot happen, but there it is. That should help us learn to believe in the impossible. It’s economically impossible to have Google Earth, Google Street Maps, stock quotes for free, weather all around the world — it’s economically impossible to have all these things. But we have them all for free. We have to learn to expect the impossible.
ivan illich
the man unsettles me. he makes me even more restless.
what are we thinking..?
thinking i might start sharing my detox videos on youtube. (thank you to Venessa. emergent by design. i'm emerging. take it in if you like.) i think i need to share more. i think i think i'm being humble by not sharing. i think others might think i'm ridiculous for sharing. that it's a show. maybe it is. i don't think so. but i guess i don't care about that so much as i care about freeing people up. so i'm doing all i can. today.
to me... using our heads (and hearts) is a vital way to free us up. we have to start taking charge, choosing.
so - to me detox is huge to that. talking to ourselves.
this is the first one i did on my own laptop, (not in our little detox booth):
and this is the last one to date. as in i did it today, .. after the whole illich audio revisit suggested by thomas:
here's the playlist for detox videos between the above two
when did we decide we could judge others, validate them? that value is measured by man's ability to consume?
[hygiene - make sure that everything that happens is planned by someone else..]
illich - a man who goes to school feels he is competing for equality, and how crazy to be obligated to compete for that. to compete for validity.
and .. in his section on regressive taxation.. that we decide to discriminate because of a man's pedigree or curricular study, if a man used (via illich) $10000 more of public funds to reach some creditation, and yet is not necessarily any more competent to teach or model skills than the guy who speaks fluent french, why do we deem people better for things we don't even believe in...

Enhance Metacognition and Problem-Solving by Talking Out Loud to Yourself - sharpbrains.com/blog/2012/02/
this is detox.. talking to self..
H-m-m-m. Interesting. We might need to have renewed respect for people we notice talking to themselves. Instead of assuming they’re off the wall, we’ll more generously ascribe good problem-solving skills to them. And for us? Let’s give talking out loud problem-solving a shot — perhaps alone, at home in a locked bathroom for the first attempt.
add some of my detox videos here..

i do love this venue.. overseeing a chat..
love this
we're yearning for human connection..
perfect.. emergent by design.. (her blog) she is emerging, putting her self out there as she does, you can join in if you like..
that to me is a collaboratory... at least what we're envisioning it as .. we are creating an intimate space of a community conversation.. as the community intentionally emerges...
thank you Venessa..
cool findings: no one really seems to know what's going on.. we're all out here together..
who am i, how can i be happy, embracing mortality,
our most valuable things: time and attention
