I am so glad that you found my blog. Unfortunately, I am in Colorado
(unfortunate only because we wouldn’t be able to go grab a bite and talk it
through). Love to talk at any point, though. My email is
ben@learningischange.com.

I ‘experience’ that change can only be brought about by people not institutions and, in that regard, I am very lonely. I am working with ‘emergence’ in my classroom practice and I need to share and have a dialogue about it with other sympathetic educators so that I can move forward in my own ripe environment and grow in the capacity to facilitate a ripe environment for my pupils. I’m currently ‘following my noise’ and I’ve found you here… and I’m not sure where ‘here’ is. I’m UK based. Where are you?

So, collaboration is intrinsic in value. I can see that quite easily. I’mrnjust not sure that everyone does. How can we get more people to know thatrnvalue of adding value to a process or product without needing an extrinsicrnreward?

Ben, I do believe that collaborative value is enough, the problem is to get people collaborating in the right way. When teachers are able to do this, they will see the value in it and will continue to want to do this. I have seen how my lessons have become so much better thanks to collaboration. When you provide rewards, incentives, then it becomes a must-work and people tend to no longer see the value in it.
