New Hampton School's Junior Urban Adventure 2007 Wrap up

Education used to be about transfer of information from teacher to student. This past winter students from the New Hampton School changed this dynamic as they engaged with a cyclical rather than linear mode of education.

Asking questions is dangerous because it empowers us to find answers and make meaning for ourselves. When that happens, advertisers, governments, religions and even societies loose their grip on us. We are free to do the right thing for us, and this I believe will ultimately lead to the right thing for the world.
