Problemet med traditionel undervisning

Her er en sjov, lille video, der meget fint illustrerer, hvorfor der ikke sker ret meget reel læring i den traditionelle undervisning.

Succes ifølge Rockefeller

Vejen til succes består ganske enkelt i at udføre de helt almindelige ting ualmindeligt godt …

— John D. Rockefeller

Hellere en fejl i hånden end 10 succeser på taget …

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”

— Theodore Roosevelt, 30. januar 1882 – 12. april 1945, amerikansk politiker og USA’s 32. præsident i perioden 1933 – 1945

Roosevelts citater er et godt sted at begynde, når der ledes efter inspiration og vise ord, om hvad der skaber bemærkelsesværdige præstationer.

Succes = Det er OK at fejle mentalitet

I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed; and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times I can fail and keep on trying.”

— Tom Hopkins, forfatter og foredragsholder

Make Your Dreams Come True

“Happy are those who dream dreams and are ready to pay the price to make them come true.”

— Leo Jozef Suenens, 1904-1996, Clergyman

Unlearning 101: The Power of Being Wrong

Unlearning 101: The Power of Being Wrong.

Interessant indlæg om at vi sandsynligvis bliver bedre og dygtigere til vores arbejde, når vi anerkender og/eller erkender, at vi kan og vil tage fejl.

Og mon ikke man også i det danske sundhedssystem – ikke mindst i lægestanden – kunne have gavn af at tage denne viden til sig …

Aflæring af ufejlbarhedens arrogance bør det vel kaldes på mundret dansk!

Træk bare i legetøjet … Playful living and learning

Play might just be the most important work we can ever inspire our students to do, because it nurtures their development, inspires creativity, prevents bullying and motivates their willingness to learn.

Dagens positive tanke

You find yourself refreshed by the presence of cheerful people. Why not make an honest effort to confer that pleasure on others? Half the battle is gained if you never allow youself to say anything gloomy.

— Julia Child, 1912-2004, Chef, Author and Television Personality
