Reimagining Education for Uncertain Times with David Perkins - The Learner's Way - 11 views

His book "Future Wise: Educating Our Children for a Changing World" introduced us to the notion of lifeworthy learning or that which is "likely to matter in the lives our learners are likely to live".

The importance of feeling safe in your workplace - The Learner's Way - 5 views
-
It's interesting how threads emerge from the books we read. An idea springs out at you from one book and then occurs again in another or a link is found between the two.
