Ideal

the ## goal is to inspire, cultivate curiosity, passion, and insight critical thinking skills and open discussion without the learner knowing they are learning. Michael Stevens Questions TED Talk

Function

Find undiscovered talent in each learner (curiosity + passion)

For each, recognize the learner's style and adopt the correlating learning model

generate and teach values that promote conserving ecological balance

Feature

Approach

Give them something to stand for, not just against. Ask them what they think is wrong with the classroom — and then challenge them to make it better.

Offer students the chance to reinterpret something they’ve learned.

be on the same level of understanding as the learner to identify logical errors in thinking

Reward questions by telling the student that it is a good question, and generally shows a great amount of enthusiasm for his field of study.

Avoid telling children what to learn, rather expose them to the available knowledge and content out there in the world

To teach someone a value at the time when the relationship is good seems to have a far greater positive impact than teaching in a negative environment.

Style

Value
