There's just no end to creativity when you're a kid, when the world is full of wonder. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Children naturally use this learning instinct, and we hope (against hope sometimes) that by the time they emerge from the traditional k-12 environment that they haven't lost it. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Returning to this innate curiosity about the world is what fascinates me about learning. The idea that once you've learnt all you have to learn about a subject, there are countless more subjects to turn to, each with their own particular points of interest and so on, ad infinitum.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Social learning and collaborative tools are at the centre of this revolution.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Rainbowhill</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 17 Sep 2008 10:13:53 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: What happens when classrooms are replaced by learning ecologies?</title><link>http://blog.edufire.com/2008/09/14/what-happens-when-classrooms-are-replaced-by-learning-ecologies/#comment-4618475</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I agree with this whole heartedly.  While homeschooling I think I have learned more from my kids/students than they have learned from me.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Tina Solar</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 15 Sep 2008 17:17:27 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
