Innovate: Rhizomatic Education: Community as Curriculum

The pace of technological change has challenged historical notions of what counts as knowledge. Dave Cormier describes an alternative to the traditional notion of knowledge. In place of the expert-centered pedagogical planning and publishing cycle, Cormier suggests a rhizomatic model of learning. In the rhizomatic model, knowledge is negotiated, and the learning experience is a social as well as a personal knowledge creation process with mutable goals and constantly negotiated premises. The rhizome metaphor, which represents a critical leap in coping with the loss of a canon against which to compare, judge, and value knowledge, may be particularly apt as a model for disciplines on the bleeding edge where the canon is fluid and knowledge is a moving target.

Nobody wanted to play my game . . . | Random thoughts of an ed admin lifer

Two things came to mind as I watched it. First, the idea of standards (standardization) taken to extremes; students as widgets on an assembly line. Second, fear. I think the scenes of chaos are what many people envision if we allow our students to have more of a say in their education.
