T-3 days before NGGE2000 Community Opens

Talk is increasingly negative when it's about education.  Whether through discussions, blogs, conferences, webinars, workshops; it's happening all over the world.  Learners are demanding change and we need to listen.
Next Generation Global Education has talked about switching the roles in education, creating a resource, the Universal Library for Learning, that could support personalized learning and most recently designed "The Matrix of a Learner".
Now it is time to put thoughts, ideas, dreams, visions in motion.  We come together to learn from and with each other.  This is how.

Log into ngge2000.ning.com
This is what you see:
Click on the right corner where it says "Click here to join".  That takes you to the sign up page.
Fill out the short form, click Sign Up at the bottom left.

Now it's time to stop the talk and look at how it can be changed.  

NGGE2000 Ning Community comes live on the 1st of April.  At that time  our new " Matrix of a Learner", as well as the seed of the Universal Library for Learning will become visible.
But you can join now, meet other members , start a discussion,  enter your class or register an "after school club".  

To the many professionals who have mentored NGGE through the years to those just joining one of our groups - Thank you and welcome. Don't miss out on  the opportunity to share your learning with the world.

Take a few minutes to join the NGGE2000 Community and help to transition education back to the learners.

Thank you,

Tracy Hanson, CEO

Giving Back

There are 5 pieces to our learning. Once we begin to master concepts we are learning we can create and in fact, give back or share with others the learning you accomplished.  Learning from and with peers is a very powerful form of education.

This example of the "give back" learning was sent to me by a fellow educator.  This is presentation done by a high school student for is video productions class.  It's not perfect but it's pretty darn good. Don't you think this would grab a learners attention more then just opening to a textbook page?
