monika hardy – equity
i have been experimenting with conditions needed for freedom, prototyping means to get to freedom, researching loopholes that keep keeping us from freedom.. seeking ways for everyone to get a go.
[update years later: am 15+ years in with findings (aka: the things i can’t unsee) from on the ground ness deep dive and why we need tech w/o judgment.. ie: the dance won’t dance unless/until it’s 1\ all of us 2\ legit free.. (legit freedom will only happen if it’s all of us.. and in order to be all of us.. has to be sans any form of measuring, accounting, people telling other people what to do).. to me (warning ness).. nothing to date (ever since that day) has gotten to that root.. the thing we’ve not yet tried/seen: the unconditional part of left to own devices ness.. there’s a legit use of tech (nonjudgmental exponential labeling) to facil the seeming chaos of that global detox leap/dance.. ie: whatever for a year.. a legit sabbatical ish transition.. otherwise we’ll keep perpetuating the same song.. the whac-a-mole-ing ness of sea world.. of not-us ness.. of part\ial ness.. perpetuating survival triage.. for (blank)’s sake..]
if equity is everyone getting a go every day.. redefining public education becomes revolution of everyday life.. aka: global equity
[note: this site is part of an ongoing experiment, ie: modeling output ness using my (never just me) brain/self-talk as data]

my evaluative response to how i’ve met district goals and standards:
the vision of the lab, and the heart/soul i occupy, is that innovation (which we have come to interpret as simply – learning – connecting existing ideas to create, perhaps, a new connection), comes from people who are given the time and space to play.
the neocortex, the part of the brain that houses the elements described by the verbiage we use in our district performance standards and goals, shuts itself down when it feels threatened.
https://redefineschool.com/632/what-im-learning/
in progress, as always, we are working toward creating these mental/physical spaces of permission [to play – to innovate – to learn – to get optimal potential/operation out of our neocortex]. perhaps a vital element of these spaces, and one that we are working on an equitable emergence/accessibility of, is that in them, people have nothing to prove.
- we have curated one small book – a be you book – on how to optimize human potential – authenticity. [old story] https://redefineschool.com/about/story/a-be-you-book/
- we have and are curating a ginourmos site – redefineschool.com – on how to model perpetual beta. perhaps a thesis/resume/portfolio of the last four years. perhaps another prototype of the app. https://redefineschool.com/632/this-site-as-prototype-to-app/
- we have also drafted another small book – a be us book – on how to optimize community potential – attachment. [social fiction]
- interest in synchronicity – the enlarged college
- and our third small book – a lab book
