Design experiences that focus on: - Autonomy (a sensation of personal choice) - Competence (a feeling of growth and mastery) - Connection (a feeling of emotional resonance) and you have designed something that students want to engage with, requiring 0 coercion.

A Modern Golden Age is a verb, not a noun. It demands the awareness that we're living it and the practice of what allows us to maintain it. If we're able to cultivate that awareness, we surpass previous Golden Ages.

For us to build something, we must have agency over it. To root our definition in something that presents "the good" being delivered by an outside, mythical source, while, at the same time, looking at the past with the sole purpose of going back to it, makes no sense.
Aug 26

The point of a Modern Golden Age is hope for the future, through the building of a better future, NOT through a nostalgic sense of going back. Forward is the way! This is what I explore in Volume II of the Modern Golden Age Diaries.

Ada, a phenomenal writer and historian, argues that Golden Ages are actually a myth, a "legitimacy" tool. Only by ignoring the suffering of a given set of people can we claim that a certain period of time was a Golden Age. I agree! We need to rethink our definition of it! https://t.co/PLkqs1SSAU
Aug 26
0010β€”
500
Not just because of everything Ada argues about, but also because the original definition of it promotes this idea of "paradise-as-passivity". The "abundance" is given by something that sits outside of those benefiting from it. This is not compatible with building an MGA.
Aug 26
0010β€”

The original definition of a Golden Age comes from Hesiod (it's the first written version of it), and it describes the world as a paradise and people living like Gods. This is, for better or worse, our original definition of a Golden Age. https://t.co/xqT9aN0FNa
Aug 26
0010β€”
500
If, on the one hand, Hesiod is a key figure in our definition, Petrarch is the second one, since he coined the term "Dark Ages", a rhetorical companion to our definition of our Golden Age. He's also a key figure in @Ada_Palmer's book "Inventing the Renaissance". https://t.co/IjEklGZLXu

The final reason has to do with Shared Assembly Lines. The flexibility these platforms allow is much more limited than most people would expect. You can make a few adjustments, but the overall structure remains similar, which is why the design has felt so stagnant. https://t.co/z003yP51yD

A 2nd reason has to do with regulations for pedestrian safety. There's a series of different design specifications, especially in Europe, that aim at distributing force and diminishing injuries upon collision. https://t.co/8OgEEzxGhF

It turns out, physics doesn't care about design, branding, or intuition. With such extreme precision, most companies get much more similar results. It is not about artistic expression, but about mathematics. We're "calculating" new designs, and the result is similar.

I see your point, and there's an element of truth to it, but pedagogy and andragogy are different! Teaching adults is a very different thing than teaching kids. It's not that the activity itself doesn't make sense; it does! But the framing of it in an adult context would make most of them disengage. This is valid for a lot of exercises that, from a pedagogical standpoint, would help adults develop new skills, but because they demand the self-awareness of the adult, "faking a task," you lose the emotional commitment and willingness to engage. This is why board games are great ways to make adults learn in a playful manner. A lot of people are willing to play board games in a learning context, even as adults. The way you debrief and reframe whatever experience you just gave them creates the actual understanding.

Everyone is mad at George RR Martin, but at least we have a (shitty) ending in a TV Show. Those of us who enjoyed The Kingkiller Chronicles and Patrick Rothfuss' world will be left to die without knowing Kvothe's story. https://t.co/94GKwdA45P https://t.co/KXRIvTbMxF

A lot of them would prefer full independence but for many, "a subject democracy was better than an uncontrolled oligarchy". Eventually, the Athenian Empire would grow more and more, to a point where Sparta would attack Athens, starting the Peloponnesian Wars.

No. I think autonomy is really hard to define in an education context because it's highly dependent on individual students. But the opportunity to make whatever choice they see fit in a given learning experience is close to the definition. Even more important is the students' awareness of that choice, which contribute to the idea (and feeling) of autonomy, creating an emotional ressonance that then gets the student to want to engage with the experience.

There was something that really lingered, though. The idea that an emotional death happens before a physical one is not new. Shenk puts it beautifully. But not all subtractions are the same. Some will cost more than others. So let's treasure those around us. https://t.co/hKTdJM06lk
