Love Ken Robinson's message and once I found Open Space so an immediate connection! Do a google for "unschooling" and you will see some open space education in action ;) For another like-minded perspective, check out John Taylor Gatto's book, Underground History of American Education<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Underground_History_of_American_Education> - I suspect it would apply to many other "modern" countries:) I am a huge proponent of bringing this mentality to education and hope to do something with this in one of my lifetimes :) Tricia Chirumbole US: +1-571-232-0942 Skype: tricia.chirumbole On Thu, Nov 13, 2014 at 8:46 AM, Daniel Mezick via OSList <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Manuel, Yes, and you may have seen the "hole in the wall" video, where kids in slums in India self-organize around learning, without any supervision at all. "Explainer" roles emerge, and the thing advances beautifully. Without any adults....(TED talk...) http://www.ted.com/talks/sugata_mitra_shows_how_kids_teach_themselves?language=en The title of the talk is "Outdoctrination", skip to 6:30 it gets really good there.

I see lots of connections with open space and the kind of reasoning going on in this group. To tell you my person opinion, I am so much into Open space that I would push the education system even further, where children could apply the law of two feet beautifully and creatively and let them go where their interests push them. But I guess we have to wait a bit more for that. Anyway there is some good thoughts about control and learning that are worth listening to. and most of all it's fun. enjoy it! manuel Manuel Marrese Mob: +39 3403424327<tel:%2B39%203403424327> Skype: manuel.marrese geniusloci facilitation & development Office: Via A.
