Welcome to the final installment in the #60DayChallenge!
Thanks to all who have actively participated by commenting and engaging in dialog and those that chose to share a reaction or just lurk in the background. I hope your thinking has been stimulated around this idea of transforming schooling into something that is focused on what it means to be human.
While this is the last formal post (for a while, at least), please feel free to continue to share resources and engage in dialog. I will certainly be here to provoke and support!

In an earlier provocation (#53, to be exact), Evon Zundel, one of our community members shared in a comment a video from a great thinker, John Seely Brown.
In the video, Brown shares his thoughts on a variety of topics important to us including the shifting role of teachers, curiosity, making, tinkering, play and more!
I hope you take the 12 minutes to explore and ponder his ideas on The Global One Room Schoolhouse, and engage in today’s provocations below shared by Evon. (Thanks, Evon!)

❓ Provocations:
Have you ever had an epiphany? How did it feel? What did you do until you finally did it? Did you feel as though you were lost before that moment of realization? How do we create contexts for every child to have epiphanies that enrich them for the rest of their days?
