12. Ivan Illich , Austrian philosopher, Roman Catholic priest and critic of the institutions of contemporary western culture and their effects on the provenance and practice of education, medicine, work, energy use, and economic development. Ivan Illich, 1926 - 2002 “ Deschooling Society”
14. "...Schooling implies custodial care for persons who are declared undesirable elsewhere by the simple fact that a school has been built to serve them." “ Together we have come to realize that for most men the right to learn is curtailed by the obligation to attend school.”
15. “ Schools are designed on the assumption that there is a secret to everything in life... and that only teachers can properly reveal these secrets.”
16. “ New educational institutions would...facilitate access for the learner: to allow him to look into the windows of the control room or the parliament, if he cannot get in by the door.”
17. “ When pressed to specify how they acquired what they know and value, will readily admit that they learned it more often outside than inside school. Their knowledge of facts, their understanding of life and work came to them from friendship or love, while viewing TV, or while reading, from examples of peers or the challenge of a street encounter.”
18. Why School is the Wrong Model for Learning Forgetting curve Irrelevant content Not real world Deficient students Taught by authority figure Focus on individuals, not groups Stifles creativity Give answers rather than action Assembly-line approach “ Ends” with graduation

Most important meme of the day is Change
Loners are powerless. We learn with one another. Teams work; no hermits allowed.
Once had plenty of time, new computer model every six or seven years Web 2 & learning: ever faster 20,000 years
phase change, not downturn
The predictable “clockwork universe” is no more. We inhabit a complex world of perpetual surprise.
Plants where people work used to look like this. Factories and efficiency. Now we work amid networks. As in nature, everything is connected to everything else.
I used to advise people to take the leap into the new way of work right away. Now I suggest they sell their stakeholders on the idea first.
Illich: To liberate access to things by abolishing the control which persons and institutions now exercise over their educational values. To liberate the sharing of skills by guaranteeing freedom to teach or exercise them on request. To liberate the critical and creative resources of people by returning to individual persons the ability to call and hold meetings — an ability now increasingly monopolized by institutions which claim to speak for the people. To liberate the individual from the obligation to shape his expectations to the services offered by any established profession — by providing him with the opportunity to draw on the experience of his peers and to entrust himself to the teacher, guide, adviser, or healer of his choice. Inevitably the deschooling of society will blur the distinctions between economics, education, and politics on which the stability of the present world order and the stability of nations now rest.
