I finally updated the look of my ALC blog and cross-posted some of the recent relevant stuff from my personal blog, including a case for updating our notions about Digital Literacy. View

    It’s great to see some words of hope amidst so many people struggling with disbelief, denial, fear, anger, and anxiousness.

    I’m glad you’ve found a path to navigate toward the kinds of change you want to see in the world regardless of who is elected to sit in some weird oval-shaped office. 😛

    artbrock commented on the post, GNU/Linux!, on the site Timo's Blog 6 years, 2 months ago

    It’s fun for me to see you geeking out on all this open source stuff. And I think it’s super powerful that you have been using a manually configured version of Linux. The stuff you learn about how the layers of computing actually work, and how they can be customized will probably improve your tech skills and even programming in the future.…[Read more]

    artbrock commented on the post, Roots Mastery Board, on the site Liam's ALF Blog 6 years, 4 months ago

    Yeah… I’m out in Vancouver right now, and I think one of the things the WH staff is struggling with in embracing new tools, is knowing the roots of their educational model. I think they’ve identified as Dem School / Dem process, and now with kids scattered across different campuses every day, they can’t even call a Democratic Meeting (School…[Read more]

    Hey @tomis, Somehow I missed this post when you wrote it. It’s really great, and we should steal some of it’s content as a guide for new ALCs understanding/navigating the network membranes.

    artbrock commented on the post, If you are having trouble with change-up then give this a shot!, on the site Timo's Blog 6 years, 7 months ago

    Thanks Timo! Very clearly described.

    I’m glad to hear the proposed format of splitting change-up is working out. I also like the way you all have integrated visiting week feedback into that structure.

    The one thing I’m not clear on from your description is… At which meeting do stickies get to be advanced to the next column beyond implementation?

    artbrock commented on the post, ALC Network Membrane V1.0, on the site Drew the ALF's blog 6 years, 10 months ago

    Yay! I love the organic / cellular metaphor and way of thinking of it.

    It does seem true to the nature of the flows. The network (nucleus) isn’t trying to control or micromanage the schools or their activities, but we are trying to hold a general sense of coherence of vision/purpose while facilitating flows of insight, resources, communication…[Read more]

    artbrock commented on the post, ALC Network Membrane First Look, on the site Drew the ALF's blog 7 years, 4 months ago

    Oh… and what about alumni? Or ex-parents / ex-students / ex-staff especially of ex-ALCs. I’m thinking of Will and Eric Harris-Braun as an example of people who seem like they should be on this map of our community in some way even though they’re not connected to a running ALC at the moment.

    We also may reach a point of wanting to visualize…[Read more]

    This is a great visualization! Now we just need to be able to translate this into something that can keep up to date with this rapidly changing landscape! 😛

    What about an ALF who is also a parent? It might be worth popping some brown rhomboid corners out from behind a purple circle. I think it would be good to show that parents are not only on…[Read more]

    artbrock wrote a new post, Kids Fulfilling their Dreams NOW!, on the site 21st Century Education 7 years, 7 months ago

    ThumbnailNot only the traditional educational system but our whole culture relates to kids more as potential than actual. Beings who may want to grow up to be SOMETHING, but for the moment are by […]

    Abby,

    I didn’t get this comment in before the Assembly Mtg, but one thing I would suggest is if they want to graduate on the normal school year cycle that we have dates instead of “6 months before.” For […]

    artbrock commented on the post, Inter-ALC Mixing & Why I Love It!, on the site Nancy's Blog 7 years, 10 months ago

    Yay for Inter-ALC mixing! And I like those hsweet Spawn Point drawings! This is exactly the kind of mutual learning that I hope for between ALCs, too. 🙂

    Thanks for sharing this, Nancy!
