Steve is on (to) something

These words here, this is what happens when I get high

not just my dream

Do you ever imagine your ideal high school? I do. I spend a lot of time thinking about the future of education and how dramatically learning will shift in the next 10 years. I wonder if public high schools will shift to mirror the learning shift. I wonder if we’ll plan the changes we need in public education quickly enough. I suspect we’ll fall short.

That, from the blog of a public shool principal in the States. My sentiments exactly. And spare me the our-situation-here-is-different-from-theirs sermon. I do hope there are big shots thinking about this in scihi, in our other public schools, in DepEd. There’s something amiss in our education system and for all our talk, we’ve never had meaningful conversations about it. Open conversations where all the stakeholders of education (teachers, students, society in general) can participate.

At times like these, I wish I am not 18 and still a student because right now I am finding it hard to get anything moving and I have a feeling it has something to do with my being a kid.
