A recurring theme : learning from your mistakes!

Kyle Pace (@kylepace) reinterprets the  WTF  acronym : WTF = Willingness to fail.

It’s not about being the best but being better then yesterday.

Without failing there is no learning and allowing students to fail is an important part of their learning experience.

Amy Burvall compared education to the original Punk music movement.

Punk = not just about anarchy, mostly about being creative and passionate.

They created magazines, music labels… many resources, just like teachers do.

Passion over skill.

Adam Phyall (@askadam3) asks :

Why not? This question drives and starts innovation.

It goes back to WTF : if you don’t try, you won’t

know whether it works.

And if you fail, at least you’ll know the reason.
