    Nonacs proves the value of "flipping the test" is to stimulate new ways to perceive and solve problems with what's been learned rather than regurgitate what teacher expects.

    then there was the story about the L.A. school district students getting iPads that were supposed to keep them on the school site and course resources... the students promptly hacked their iPads and let themselves out on the net

    Cathleen Nardi's Pinterest board for #rhizo14. Focus include links to posts and rhizome related links rather than primarily images of rhizomes (.e.g. rhizomes in nature). The page serves as a visual #rhizo14 aggregation I started a rhizome pinboard too but intend to focus more on images, including ones less course related one.

    "In my teaching, I stress the importance of the creative process over the product, but the impact of how or when this shift in understanding takes place came into sharp focus only recently. In preparation for the final of my Studio Design{ course, I took my class to the study Room at the RISD Museum to view a portfolio of paper folding structures by the artist Tauba Auerbach. The Complex structural and color interactions in the portfolio make it a favorite to show[….] instead of witnessing surprised joy, I watched a roomful of heads and shoulders slump in desperation. I was startled to realize the little more than half-way through their first semester, my students were projecting themselves into this portfolio not with the passive eyes of spectators, but with the knowledge of makers. No longer just an end product to them, this portfolio now embodied hours of toil and experimentation, trial and error, measuring and calculating. Seeing it demonstrated to the students that if they wished to make successful work they needed to build up their creative muscles." Page 37

  • I think Gary Stager gets it right:In the absence of a clear and publicly articulated vision for a school or district and a misguided quest for the holy grail of balance, the weeds will always kill the flowers. If you are a school leader with a coherent vision for educational progress, you must articulate your vision clearly and publicly so people will follow. Why make others guess what you want and stand for?

      Do any of these bullets rise up from the folk, from the learner, from the community and the rhizome? Don't think so.  Could they?  Of course.  It all depends upon which end of the stick and which end you 'valorize'.

      I don't always feel that way.  Sometimes I feel it is a guiding hand, but after two of these rhizo things I am beginning to think of it as a shving hand in a cattle chute.  The chutes only appear down, but the binaries still suggest two paths:  objective/subjective, content/no content,  dave/no dave and whatever the hell the other one was.  This is not rhizomatic teaching.

      Not really too sure about this. He creates a binary and expects us to reconcile it.  And then where does that takes us as far as a rhizomatic practice is concerned?  Not very far at all.

      If Dave is the Gardener,then the way he weeds is to point to the weed and say, "Isn't that interesting?".  Irresponsible?  Unethical? Bait and switch?  Not sure.  Personally, I am much more drawn to Heraclitus and Voltaire. For the latter the world is in flux and idiosyncratic as can be and for the latter he has Candide say, "That is very well put, but we muct cultivate our garden."  We must be our own gardeners.

      Dunno, the videos seem pretty scripted to me.  He has an agenda and wants to get it out there.  The community has been guided by each week's prompts, using it as a jumping off point but not really going too far from fold.  I wanted to see much more rebellion and spontaneous, adhoc-osity.  I tried, but no one paid me any mind.  Par.
  • Of course it is the gardner who decides between the weeds and “flowers”, sets the parameters of the garden, and ultimately decides who lives and who dies – but that is my next blog post.
    • Terry Elliott
      Terry Elliott on 09 May 15
       
      I agree that the gardener controls but I think it is illusory.  Who plucks the gardener? Who tends the gardener? Who weeds the gardener?  The gardener lives in a larger system that subsumes the garden, a larger Garden.  The gardener thinks he is managing the complexity that is the garden.  Fools paradise for a sock puppet?

  • The thing is those other 4 people indicated that they agreed with the statement that the collaborative experiences were impeding their learning (S1) and they disagreed with the statement saying that the collaborative experiences were helping their learning (S2). What about those guys? Yes, there are not a lot of them but they are almost 10% of the respondents. If we believe that important things can come from introspection then I want to say that there is a good chance that they have something of value to offer the community. And when the community is the curriculum that seems of vital importance.

      Amongst these people who say that collaborative experiences impeded their learning there would be more subsets, ie various reasons why, eg some might have not had much experience so only had an unsatisfactory one. So much more to unpack.
  • I think that there is a good chance that we social learners can be somewhat (and often unconsciously) biased against solitary learners.
  • I think that there is room for the solitary learner in a cMOOC and I think that the solitary learner can have just as rich of an experience as a social learner.

  • find the course is kind of haunting me and getting in the way of other things - it is breaking my brain a bit in a way that I’m loving
  • I think that many could benefit from not finding someone but rather finding some thing.
  • To get started as a new learner it seems I need to know or get to know the people. Could there be benefit to (alongside of curating by personality) curating by theme, topic, argument, or subject? So that one could search for topics that others are talking about that one might be interested in with the focus on the subject and not on the personalities?
