Photo by 2008 Mystery Trip Group You left camp about an hour ago. The hike is going well. You feel a buzzing in your backpack. You take out your Communicator, and read the message… After you left, camp was overrun by men in green. We tried to fend them off. There were five of them on Noah at one time, and Addie took out eight or so, but the sheer numbers overcame us. It’s John. His face is scratched and bloody, battered and bruised. I’m not sure why they attacked. Head up Great Pond Mountain. I’ll try to communicate with you there. Stay out of sight, and off the open faces — and don’t take the main trails ; I think they’re monitoring them. Go! and be careful! It’s John. His face is scratched and bloody, battered and bruised. They’re setting up some kind of base station here. There’s all sorts of radio gear. If you can get to one of the nearby peaks , you might be able to intercept a transmission with your Communicator. John Martin, looking really really tired.

if we put before the mind's eye the ordinary schoolroom ... we can reconstruct the only educational activity that can possibly go on in such a place. It is all made 'for listening'" (Dewey, 1900).

learning

Education and Learning the World being society tools archived knowledge

the true centre of correlation of the school subjects is not science, nor literature, nor history, nor geography, but the child's own social activities.
“ My Pedagogic Creed” by John Dewey. School Journal vol. 54 (January 1897), pp. 77-80.

history

In the early 1900s, as part of the social efficiency movement, educational leaders began applying aspects of Frederick Taylor’s conception of scientific management of factory production to the structures of schooling (Kliebard 2004). For Taylor, efficient production relied upon the factory managers’ ability to gather all the information possible about the work which they oversaw, systematically analyze it according to ‘scientific’ methods, figure out the most efficient ways for workers to complete individual tasks and then tell the worker exactly how to produce their products in an ordered manner (Noble 1977). Scientific management thus represented a form of ‘technical control’ (Apple 1995) over labour, where the logics of control are embedded in the very structure of the process of production itself . Au, Wayne (2008) 'Between education and the economy: high-stakes testing and the contradictory location of the new middle class', Journal of Education Policy, 23:5, 501—513.

“ Yes, today you can chat with friends, collaborate on projects, read the news, play games, or share videos of your kids, all online. But you could do all that stuff offline before 1991. It’s just much easier and faster now. What’s different—what’s fundamentally different—is the size of your social space, and of course the size of everyone else’s. The Internet has made these spaces much, much bigger.” - Joshua Fisher http://www.sramanamitra.com/2010/01/30/what-is-good-teaching/

implications

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGCJ46vyR9o

instead of starting from the Cartesian premise of “ I think, therefore I am,” and from the assumption that knowledge is something that is transferred to the student via various pedagogical strategies, the social view of learning says, “ We participate, therefore we are.” John Seely Brown and Richard P. Adler (2008)
