ALC Network

The ALC Network - Agile Learning Centers are a brand new model of *self directed education*. We use Agile tools in the context of learning.

Can we just talk about this one more time?

Here's how schools turn bright healthy children into failures.

The math is pretty simple:

Standardization + grading/ranking + compulsion = a huge number of children defined & labeled as failures.

ASDE member Sierra Allen made this short film about Wildwood, a learning community for self-directed homeschoolers. It illustrates the potential of Self-Directed Education to empower children individually AND cultivate extraordinary social intelligence. https://t.co/rsMMQOUQcq

@Miss_Blockchain @holochain @H_O_L_O_ There are many within the @holochain team interested in education. One of our co-founders @artbrock also started @ALCnetwork -> "an expanding network of micro-schools" You could also check out @EmLeaders , which is where I ran into all these wonderful people :) Hope this helps.

“It occurred to me that maybe the way school is now is not the perfect way," said high school junior Nick Bain. So he decided to try a radical experiment in #selfdirected learning https://t.co/uaq7JYZ2r4 #edchat
