Standard Set Answer:Public Set Answer:I am a Primary/ elementary trained teacher who is working as a substitute teacher. I love to learn and I wish to join this join to learn more about reinventing schools. I read a little and watch a small clip and it seems like very interesting topic and something I would like to learn more about to bring back to the classroom.
I want to participate in the Reinventing School Challenge because I am always looking for new and engaging ways to educate my students. I try my best to “think outside of the box” in attempts to motivate them. After reading about this challenge I think that it is something that I can use to do exactly that, to reinvent my own way of teaching.
As far and how I would engage other to participate I will need to learn more about the challenge before I can answer this question.

Standard Set Answer:Public Set Answer:I had two very interesting and unique history teachers in 8th and 9th grade. They taught history in an interactive and engaging way that made the boring subject interesting. They also relied heavily on technology to facilitate learning and had students create cool projects using technology tools.
I hope more teachers and schools will learn from their example. These two teachers were the favorites among students at the time.
Yes, I will do what I can do help.
I believe I cannot force anyone to participate. However, I believe that if I can use a person's interest and/or passion to elicit a response.

Standard Set Answer:Public Set Answer:I am continually looking for educational opportunities and approaches to integrate into those I currently use with my children.
Greater perspective on education.
Probably not interested in course organization, I am new to this process and want to take it one step at a time.
I have been a part of numerous small groups looking to make a change in the educational opportunities in our area. I am hoping that being a part of a broader group will provide additional prospective and ideas that we may be able to incorporate.
I hope to engage others by providing thoughful feedback and sharing my group experience with those that I am connected with locally.

I'm a Current High School student from Omaha, I love to hear people's ideas, share my ideas, and see how those can be improved and combined. I'm an avid cyclist, reader, environmentalist, and Mad Men viewer. I do a lot of swimming and work for the YMCA as a Lifeguard and Swim Instructor.
Location: Omaha
Standard Set Answer:Public Set Answer:My passion is for Education, and I plan on pursuing this into College.
I hope to get new ideas and share my ideas for the future of Education.
Absolutely I'm interested in helping organization, I don't have tons of time on my hands, but I'll do what I can.
As a current High School student, I see many problems that are facing our education system, I have ideas and I want to share those ideas. I would also like to learn from the ideas of others. I think people can really build a better education system (specifically in the Americas).
It's going to be hard to influence others, because so many that might be using P2PU are out of K-12, however it's possible, people just need to realize that things need to be fixed in our K-12 system. The ideas we share will hopefully be engaging enough.
