Teaching?
How can my idea on what I do be based around learning and teaching when I openly state I am not a teacher and I do not teach?
A class with no rules?
As a tutor, I deliver a wide range of modules or units, whatever you wish to call them. These units are governed by either the SQA (Scottish Qualifications Authority) or by Edinburgh Napier University (as we are linked with this establishment, we are required to deliver their materials to their standards)… but what if on a given unit (being 36 hours spread over 12 weeks) the class were able to decide the content of the unit. What if, rather than a given framework or unit descriptor, the class could decide on the content and outcomes through a series of forums, discussions and debates. The unit outcomes would then be decided at class level.
In the short term it may be a concept I could try at college level the main issue would however be who would sanction such a unit and allow it a grade at a given level

- @pedagoo Scottish education is very good, but there are cultural differences we can benefit from
- @pedagoo not sure, possibly add "through a collective understanding from educators from around the world"?

- @pedagoo not really, I subscribe to websites in the U.S. Maybe reword it slightly to encourage collaboration?
