 I'm at Educon. I was fortunate to be able to spend Thursday and Friday hanging around the school. Here's what I saw: Lots of smiles.  For two years I've observed from a distance the energy and sharing of ideas that have taken place at Science Leadership Academy in Philadelphia. The day after it ended in January 2009, I decided I wouldn't miss it again. My registration is in and my tickets are booked. In fact, I'm paying my own way [...]  Today I stumbled across a couple of pieces of content that for me, placed at the forefront of my thinking, the real challenges that face education today. First Chris Lehmann gave a presentation to the National Broadband working group at the FCC. Chris began by challenging folks to picture any high school at dismissal time [...]  I had the good fortune of spending the last week with some really smart people and sit in on a few great sessions. During this time I was asked a few times if I was enjoying this or learning. The answer to both was yes. However, I could likely have been asked the same quesitons [...]  Here’s just another really silly, useless but somewhat fascinating use of twitter. Not necessarily any educational value but pure fun.
Step one: Find someone at a sporting or other large event.
Step Two: Offer a challenge:
Step Three: Watch and wait:
Step Four: End with laughter, joy and acknowledgement of a well completed task.
