Adventure strategy
Nobody can resist adventure, just ask a hobbit! Education was always meant to be a journey where we follow our hearts & minds, seeking awe-inspiring knowledge. Our quest? Bring this reality back!
It is always the adventurers who do great things, not the sovereigns of great empires. Montesquieu
Adventure is the feeling of the rest of your life stretching out before you, and you're unsure, certainly, but most of all— you're excited. This is your story. You know you're capable, but it's more than that. You are 'beyond' capable, able to face things 'beyond' what you know.
This knowing of yours is not made of facts; it cannot be, it is 'not yet.' But nevertheless, you feel it in your bones & even see it in your past. This is the human adventure, my friend. Life waits for you, 'beyond.'
So, our thinking needs to be 'beyond,' as does our knowledge-building process, in order to best prepare for a future we can all be excited for, one where the adventure is in our hands. 'Cause that's learning, y'all.
it's a critical thinking revolution, babe!
Critical pedagogy wants... to embolden teachers and students to act in ways that make a difference, and to push humans to new levels of social and cognitive achievement previously deemed impossible. Critical pedagogy is an ambitious entity that seeks nothing less than a form of educational adventurism that takes us where nobody’s gone before. Joe Kincheloe, Critical Pedagogy Primer, p. 4
