About William

Interested in making education an instrument of well-being. Believe that schools, as the most important shapers of mental models, need to seriously retool in an effort to address the problems caused by dysfunctional economic models, biophobia, “nature-deficit disorder” and an immense lack of planetary situational awareness.

Keep asking myself, "How is preparing students to enter a system that is at war with itself, preparing them for the future?"

Currently working on a new effort, ParticipatoryLearning.net, where students will get to tell me, their teacher, which countries I should visit. In this effort, I'll be trying to combine my love for world living, teaching, and active networked learning.

These are interesting times full of interesting people. Would love to hear your idea.
