Education: I live and breathe it and have for 30+ years.
My experience: 16 years in secondary traditional public school; 13 years in secondary Montessori private school. This is relevant because it is my experience in both environments that fuel my drive to promote a holistic,
'organic' new educational paradigm.
I have 'lived' in both educational paradigms. The Montessori model exceeds exponentially even the richest and best model based on the old 'factory system' educational design.
I would say I'm like the Lorax, except instead of speaking for the trees, I feel compelled to speak for the student:
There is a better educational design or paradigm, there is one already there to lead, it exists globally, and (more/all) students deserve to have it... as does society (with the benefits it will bring to the whole).
Besides being exciting on multiple levels in and of itself, BIOMIMICRY informs the needed new educational paradigm. That is the connection I see---seek to share and about which I'd like to dialogue.
Would love to begin to implement change, step by step, stone by stone.
Best,
Ann
