Having watched online and studied educational alternatives and some of the growing coalitions AND having grown frustrated with seemingly fractious movement I see things ARE coming together! I began with studying Montessori and then expanded to explore what is called “holistic education,” simply put is nurturing mind, body, and spirit. I have discovered scholars looking again at the pivotal work of James Moffett who wrote among other work, “The Universal Schoolhouse.” It was a missed opportunity in the 1990s to not see through to completion his vision, maybe now is the time. Feedback loops of which you speak are important to capture the “Warm Data” Nora Bateson speaks of as we proceed. I love Val Brown who I see and hear on the Integrated Schools podcasts. I know of Karen Pittman from “The Future of Smart” podcast with Dr. Ulcca Joshi Hansen. I am hoping my city of Minneapolis will jump at the opportunities that are here. Thank you!
