Clay seemed taken aback by the "edgy" tag, but I think it's very apt if you define edgy as " cutting edge; having a bold, provocative, or unconventional quality." In many respects you both fit that description. Your discussion of Natural Collaboration and learning with baggage gave me a lot to consider. I'd like to be one of those teachers who can just connect the students, then step back and watch the learning happen, but I know that it is not an easy or spontaneous process. Since I'm a K-12 teacher/librarian, I can move down grade levels and try to influence younger students. The earlier we introduce and encourage communication and collaboration skills, the more likely it is that they will become lifetime habits. Thanks for giving me food for thought on an icy Snow Day! diane Dean,

Clay seemed taken aback by the “edgy” tag, but I think it’s very apt if you define edgy as ” cutting edge; having a bold, provocative, or unconventional quality.” In many respects you both fit that description.

I’d like to be one of those teachers who can just connect the students, then step back and watch the learning happen, but I know that it is not an easy or spontaneous process.

Clay's edgy ~ if you know what I mean.
