Introductory lecture for Dr Craig Hammond's 'Alternative Education' Module on the BA Education Studies programme at University centre Blackburn College (UCBC).
3. Break out of the Prison House of
Traditional Educational ‘instruction’ …
• Get thinking
• Start imagining
• Realise that your knowledge & creativity
– Ideas & Suggestions are equally as valid as
‘the lecturer’
• Use the theories, concepts & freedom on
offer to you; and,
• Nurture your skills to be able to
– Do It Yourself (DIY) - and become Edupunks
– And anarchogogues (anarchogogy)
6. • Use the ‘freedom’ to come-up with your own
ideas
• This approach is also referred to as ‘students
as producers’
• So, imagine, connect, ‘hope’ and create (using
‘me’ for advice)
