"The role of the educator can be understood in terms of quantum dynamics: each moment you stand before a group of learners, many possibilities exist, yet only one will emerge."
Different. Makes a change from the trite "unlocking potential" of so much edubabble.
A challenging read. But worth it. Cracking open the curriculum.
Begins with a great quote from Jeanette Winterson, The Stone Gods:
“‘I hate it when you talk like this . . .’
‘I merely observe that this is a quantum Universe and, as such, what happens is neither random nor determined. There are potentialities and any third factor – humans are such a factor – will affect the outcome.’
‘And free will?’
‘Is your capacity to affect the outcome.’”
