Unattached Thinking Remain Fresh

Great minds don’t think alike.  They challenge each other to think differently.  The people who teach you the most are the ones who share your principles but not your thought processes. Converging values draw you to similar questions.  Diverging views introduce you to new answers. Adam Grant "The more confident you are, the quieter you become. Confidence whispers, and insecurity roars. Confident people are not attention seekers. Their mere presence is loud enough for the world to see. Contrarily, the insecure ones are the loudest, drawing most attention to themselves.  It is precisely for the unmanifested reason that Truth is utterly simple, common, elementary and totally obvious, that it is completely overlooked.

"What leads us to ignore experts isn't their knowledge.  It's their arrogance."   Think Again by Adam Grant Evidence:  Scientists are more credible  when they admit what they don't know,  acknowledge what they got wrong,  and update their views.  Trust is earned by expressing humility,  not by asserting authority. The innovative and highly fluid Emerging Digital Asset Landscape is exactly this.  CSOs CTOs and any developer working on making BETTER systems, more resilient more robust code, more integrated inter operable connections or proposing solutions as to why something is NOT working, are constantly admitting what they don't know.  Scientists developers coders identify what is wrong or could be better, identify an improvement proposal and then work collaboratively in teams to create or find a solution. They then update their views by openly sharing within the community or any one relevant and who is interested.  This is why Digi...

"Yes and ... Not Yes, but..." Expansive Opportunities For Educational Change. Fresh Education Makes So Much Sense. PISA Does NOT Matter. Never, Ever.

The FreshEd Podcast · FreshEd #197 – COVID-19 as an opportunity for educational change (Yong Zhao) There’s an urban legend that Winston Churchill, near the end of World War II, once said “never let a good crisis go to waste.” President Obama’s chief of staff, Rahman Emanuel, certainly said similar words in 2009 after the Global Financial Crisis. Is the crisis in education today caused by the coronavirus an opportunity to make lasting and positive change? How can we be sure not to waste this moment by returning to normal? Yong Zhao joins me to talk about educational change in the time of COVID-19. He argues that we must change the “yes, but” attitude to a “yes, and” collaborative approach. We must be innovative and work together to redesign education systems into something new. He’s hoping to see more self-directed learning emerge out of this crisis as well as a shift towards the humanities and philosophy. Yong Zhao  is a Foundation Distinguished Professor in the  Sch...
