Upcoming online session

Dave Snowden

Enough in common not to be at each others throats but also enough differences to make life interesting.

My task is to define complexity and summarise the basic heuristics of interventions in a complex space.

For the next three days, we would apply Dave Snowden’s Triopticon process to explore and discuss what […]

Education is entangled, so let’s act like it!

Society… as in any living organism, is the co-operative consensus of multitudes of cells, each living in exchange with others. (Dewey, J., 1931. Individualism Old and New. London: George Allen and Unwin). It’s a truism to say that education is complex. We accept it and we talk about preparing our learners to be “future-proof”, “agile” […]
