Think Different at Students 2.0

Think of the wealth of talent that is being and has been squandered due to this system. How many people would have become the next great composer if they had been given just that little bit more leeway?

“I need 89% on this assignment to get into Queen’s.”

That’s when I realized that, to Julia - one of the best students in my class, one of the best writers - writing was really only about getting a grade. It had no other meaning or purpose. All of her learning was reduced to one thing - the need to achieve a certain average.

How to Prevent Another Leonardo da Vinci | David Truss :: Pair-a-dimes for Your Thoughts

Square Peg, Round Hole | Pair-a-dimes for Your Thoughts

This post was very instrumental to my thinking and it was inspired by a former student, Kris.

Now I am helping her by hosting her blog, and she is helping me with some tech support… the teacher/student lines are blurred. It is no longer about established roles, but rather it is about learners helping each other… hubs in a learning network.
