Fish can't climb trees...





This is a fantastic video which questions how we can learn, how we can be taught and raises many different questions about our own psyche perhaps. Thank you for showing me this clip today, it's wonderful. Collaborative learning works well, sharing ideas and thinking differently works. The Finnish education system works. And addressing different ways to approach an assessment, well that works too. 

On another note, it actually reminded me of my dad who was a Music teacher and how he viewed the curriculum. I'll leave that to one of his star pupils, arguably one of  Scotland's finest female writers, to describe that. There's a wee link to an article from a 'quality newspaper' from Janice Galloway at the bottom of this post. 

If you have any comments on the video, please note them below as I'd like to hear your thoughts. 

Have a lovely weekend, 

Mark
