Exactly right! Until we can recognize we are STUCK in a narrative loop that defines what school ‘is’, based on our collective past experience, we will never be free to EVOLVE in order to keep learning relevant for our students in their ever-changing world. followthelearning.com/?p=103… – at Wellington City, New Zealand

The one thing most of us have in common is an experience with our education system. As a result, almost everyone has an opinion on what is right and, even often more vocalized, what is wrong with the system. The trouble is many of these opinions are based on the past.

Early Childhood Educators have always understood this. Game culture has revealed that it is not just the little ones who thrive and learn through play. The Q for me is - When will EDU “get it” too? nzcer.org.nz/nzcerpress/set/… #nzcer #followthelearning – at Wellington City, New Zealand

As the year winds down and we look toward 2019, I’m asking you to make a commitment: find something you want to change in your community and take the first step toward changing it. If you need some inspiration, take a look at some of the young leaders who inspired me this year.

Inspired by That #DragonCancer, students @NewlandsInt #HackMini designed a game prototype to help students understand & navigate symptoms of anxiety. After 10 years of teaching game design, powerful to see Ss choosing to create #G4C. Powerful! @ThetaNet @mixiply @Microsoft – at Wellington City, New Zealand

Henry and Santa comparing their skill levels @PokemonGoApp. Apparently, Santa is a pretty big gamer. I couldn’t stop smiling and laughing...
