Stress-related ailments cost the nation $300 billion every year in medical bills and lost productivity, while our usage of sedative drugs keeps skyrocketing; just between 1997 and 2004, Americans more than doubled their spending on anti-anxiety medications like Xanax and Valium, from $900 million to $2.1 billion. And this anxious strain hits us well before we reach college. As psychologist Robert Leahy points out: "The average high school kid today has the same level of anxiety as the average psychiatric patient in the early 1950s."

We live in a culture where fear is used to motivate us."
We vilify our aversive emotions and fight them, rather than letting them run their own course.
ie: medicating a fever rather than letting it take care of itself
And maybe, just maybe, our college kids will one day be able to return to the state of appallingly irresponsible, beer-soaked carelessness that is their birthright.
what ?

“Be wary of great leaders,” he told The Associated Press two days after the march. “Hope that there are many, many small leaders.”
“He reached out and shook my hand and said, ‘Thank you, thank you, this is beautiful,’” Rodriguez-Seeger said. “That really did it for me. The cops recognized what we were about. They wanted to help our march. They actually wanted to protect our march because they saw something beautiful. It’s very hard to be anti-something beautiful.”

The moment your policy interferes with their uniqueness, the policy has cost you something.
use behavior as the most important clue about what people want and more important, what they need.
maybe not at first. maybe use self-talk first.. or together at least.. so many of us zombies.. our behavior not really reflecting what matters.. no?

This is “doing” real mathematics: looking for more general/powerful/concise relationships and patterns – and using imagination and rigorous argument to do so, not just plug and chug. (There are some interesting and surprising answers to this task, by the way.)

Indeed a real-world task for a budding mathematician would be to present original research to a panel of mathematicians.
this is what school math is..
how many desire that in their future,,, formal anyway..
ie:if the math matters to life.. the debate comes up in life... not staged..
7. Make feedback to students so central that school structures and policies are modified to support them
highly lacking... no...?
1. Are “essential” – not contrived or arbitrary just to shake out a grade
changes everything... esp combined with previous point... essential to who...?
5. Assess student habits and repertories, not mere recall or plug-in.
brain of c app
6. Are representative challenges of a field or subject
what does that even mea...? so now field trumps student curiosity
3. Minimize needless, unfair, and demoralizing comparisons of students to one another
?
4. Allow appropriate room for student styles and interests [ – some element of choice
?
6. Have perceived value to the students being assessed.

Jane Praeger, who teaches storytelling in Columbia University’s Strategic Communications programs, adds, “In order to sound spontaneous, you have to be prepared.” She likens it to the way actors rehearse their scripts for more natural delivery. “It’s the preparation that allows you to be spontaneous,” says Praeger.
That’s the paradox.
“Ideally rehearsal frees your mind to be as improvisational in the moment as possible,” says James Vincent Meredith, an ensemble actor with Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theater. “Successful actors are able to empty their minds of everything except the immediate moment and yet have the ‘muscle memory’ to remember lines and blocking.”
best at improv.. have become one with their medium.. through hanging out together... no.... ?
| Fast Company (@FastCompany) 1/24/14 7:17 AM The secrets of the best public speakers: f-st.co/uoLspZp |
For public speakers, it’s the content and body language that must be committed to “muscle memory.” Connecting with an audience means feeling comfortable enough to be expressive.
Meredith adds, “You only get that strength--that ability to go off the path--when you know where the path is.”

or perhaps.. just literacy.. aka ability to communicate/understand... no matter what form... no?
perhaps for universal.. it's visual literacy ness... and perhaps for blind... perhaps visual is in music ness
perhaps because we resonate more with something we can see.. hear.. swim in..
here is example.. os seeking way to invite everyone to love digital literacy party..

One thinker who saw through the naïveté of Illich, the Homebrewers, and the Whole Earthers was the libertarian socialist Murray Bookchin. Back in the late sixties, he published a fiery essay called “Towards a Liberatory Technology,” arguing that technology is not an enemy of craftsmanship and personal freedom. Unlike Brand, though, Bookchin never thought that such liberation could occur just by getting more technology into everyone’s hands; the nature of the political community mattered. In his book “The Ecology of Freedom” (1982
It didn’t make sense to speak of “convivial tools,” he argued, without taking a close look at the political and social structures in which they were embedded.
the clearer and more defined I get for you.. the more I die.. and the more yo crave something "missing" outside yourself..
ie the more I invite you to a dead space..
ie if everyone comes- and says.. I see.. no longer reason to keep that piece ness alive ness
A reluctance to talk about institutions and political change doomed the Arts and Crafts movement, channelling the spirit of labor reform into consumerism and D.I.Y. tinkering. The same thing is happening to the movement’s successors. Our tech imagination, to judge from catalogues like “Cool Tools,” is at its zenith. (Never before have so many had access to thermostatically warmed toilet seats.) But our institutional imagination has stalled, and with it the democratizing potential of radical technologies. We carry personal computers in our pockets—nothing could be more decentralized than this!—but have surrendered control of our data, which is stored on centralized servers, far away from our pockets. The hackers won their fight against I.B.M.—only to lose it to Facebook and Google. And the spooks at the National Security Agency must be surprised to learn that gadgets were supposed to usher in the “de-institutionalization of society.”
