The Seven Spaces of Technology in School Environments from Ewan McIntoshon Vimeo.
1) secret spaces
- one person to one person
- space for getting off task – see ideas you wouldn’t have explored
- the third teacher – make peace w/fidgeting – swivel chairs, niches
- gever tulley – tinkering school
2) group spaces
- community as designer – stanford’s dschool
- make space manipulatable on a just-in-time basis
- [more on fluid spaces here via ideo]
3) publishing spaces
- blog, flickr, tap into group spaces
- twitter wall – live update
- school can be the community’s best neighbor- design space so it’s used by everyone in community always
4) performance spaces
- allows people to be something they are not
- play occurs in more than playgrounds
5) participation spaces
- theory is made practice – gever tulley – tinkering school
- instead of one focal point at front of class, a million focal points
6) data spaces
- how could real time data actually improve the space data.gov.uk
- gullane primary school – producing their own energy – can only happen if we have that data input at every point of our school day
7) watching spaces
- teds
- imagine a lecture not taking place in a classroom
- dschool – all furniture on wheels – encourage listening, but 3 focal points, collaboration during listening is encouraged – to whisper during a lecture, lecture is almost discouraged, and can come from anyone, merely spaces where you can talk to groups

Ewan McIntosh: The Problem Finders from EDtalks on Vimeo.
r martin – so much of the world operates in – mystery
heuristics – gut filling – successful people seem to have figured out their algorithm
creative/successful people:
1. know why they are on the planet – s sinek
david perkins – making learning whole
what kids want: 1. challenge 2. real things
2. they provoke
3. have a process
4. live to perform – want to share
hmmm – interesting – the video stops like 30 min in – perhaps embed only lasts that long?

Is jargon actually a loud way to create organisational silence @M_Heffernan? Makes me think of @ottoscharmer1’s levels of listening #sgis17

jargon to create ps in the open… perhaps org silence..?
