Bud, you pose some interesting ideas on learning and the challenges we face as a learning community. For me, as a classroom teacher it comes back to some fundemental practices. It is easy to get comfortable in our daily classroom environment. At the same time, I can get excited about learning when I am able to see my students engaged in what is going on both in and out of the classroom. When we are able to find time to Make/Hack/Play my students then the learning begins and new possibitlies open. I like the idea of hacking as improving what's already there. We can take the topics we are exploring in the classroom as a launching pad to explore and come to new learning. I can especially appreciate the idea of Play as having space to explore. The challenge is taking back my agency and understanding that I as a classroom teacher have the power in the teaching and learning with my students. Thanks for a very cool presentation.
