We're back! It's been a long time between drinks.

Trying a different format - same topic as a slow chat over a month with a different question each week. We want you to have the chance to deeply reflect.

Remember to use the #provoked hashtag in your responses and your RTs.

So what is the purpose of schooling? #provoked

[adrianne waters @adrianne_waters]

Thinking about the provocation of what school is for? Even more so for gifted students. They do need more opportunities to make school meaningful.

[#eduProvocations @eduProvocations]

What is the new purpose of schooling? #provoked #NextEd19

[#eduProvocations @eduProvocations]

Your thoughts? Is this what schooling is about?

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Education is too focused on trying to teach children to learn. Children are born with an innate ability to learn. Education should be about drawing out the talents, passions, & abilities of each child through curiosity, creativity, and relevant experiences. That's Real Education.

ICYMI Here is Week 2's update.

How does your definition of school's purpose guide what you do each day?

I am @DrKateThomson from @USydFHS. I research professional learning in #highered. I have contributed to the evidence for the effectiveness of informal learning strategies (like conversations) for academics, clinical educators, and students. More info: https://t.co/qEnf7HNitx

[#eduProvocations @eduProvocations]

@joelbirch I meant intent. But could be taken either way.

[#eduProvocations @eduProvocations]

The purpose of schooling will determine what schools value.

Do we value building relationships over curriculum? Should we?

#provoked

[Greg Miller @gregmiller68]

Education done differently...

"For the first week of school Danish teachers instead spend time building relationships with students through games, activities instead of opening a textbook"

"... the concept of ‘wasted minutes’ does not exist"

[𝕄𝕒𝕥𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕨 𝕃𝕖𝕤𝕝𝕚𝕖 @Griffin_Edu]

Excellent! 👏 👏👏

We need to re-examine why we have timed tests and what purpose they serve, because they certainly don’t serve the best interests of the student.

@brookssensei @eduProvocations

I think I sense an #eduprovaction

@ShannonOliveir1 @jarradstrain @rachaellehr @trev_mackenzie @shortcomp @Griffin_Edu @brookssensei @HostBrian @mgraffin @techcoachjuarez @foxguest @claireseldon_ed Thanks for the response, Shannon. I come from a background in the corporate world in Product Management, so I also see the relationship similarities.

So, what would you say the purpose of schooling is? Should be?

@kimbowa @rachaellehr @trev_mackenzie @shortcomp @Griffin_Edu @brookssensei @HostBrian @mgraffin @techcoachjuarez @foxguest @claireseldon_ed Well I am certainly #provoked!

What should the purpose of schooling be, then?

[#eduProvocations @eduProvocations]

@jarradstrain @rachaellehr @trev_mackenzie @shortcomp @Griffin_Edu @brookssensei @HostBrian @mgraffin @techcoachjuarez @foxguest @claireseldon_ed Thanks for sharing. Maybe we should be asking the students?

[#eduProvocations @eduProvocations]

@teachnlearnMB @rachaellehr @trev_mackenzie @shortcomp @Griffin_Edu @brookssensei @HostBrian @mgraffin @techcoachjuarez @foxguest @claireseldon_ed Love that quote!

It's interesting how Educators react to the word schooling. I would think if all Ss go through 13 years of schooling, there should be a clear, defined purpose for wanting to do that across all schools and would be well understood by educators.

@rachaellehr @HostBrian @trev_mackenzie @shortcomp @Griffin_Edu @brookssensei @mgraffin @techcoachjuarez @foxguest @claireseldon_ed Interesting provocation!

What needs to change?

@HostBrian @eduProvocations @trev_mackenzie @shortcomp @Griffin_Edu @brookssensei @mgraffin @techcoachjuarez @foxguest @claireseldon_ed Just saw this quote on LinkedIn... seems highly relevant to the #provoked topic

[#eduProvocations @eduProvocations]

@HostBrian @rachaellehr @trev_mackenzie @shortcomp @Griffin_Edu @brookssensei @mgraffin @techcoachjuarez @foxguest @claireseldon_ed Awesome stuff, @HostBrian. Thanks for sharing.

How do you think schooling differs from education?

@eduProvocations @rachaellehr @trev_mackenzie @shortcomp @Griffin_Edu @brookssensei @mgraffin @techcoachjuarez @foxguest @claireseldon_ed Words from my dissertation currently being written about the purpose of schooling. I too agree there is a difference between schooling and education. #provoked
