Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community
This is an excellent essay defending public education that deserves to be shared. "As critical and public intellectuals, teachers must fight for the right to dream, conceptualize and connect their visions to classroom practice. They must also learn to confront directly the threat from fundamentalisms of all varieties that seek to turn democracy into a mall, a sectarian church or an adjunct of the emerging punishing state."
