Environment Experiments for School

This is a long podcast that goes through as series of integrated experiments in detail.

The general train of action is built up with description of a system plagued by "lag" teaching concepts hundreds of years out of date with a prime focus of cloning the unquestioning teachers that are churning out textbook pages with ardour. Direct observation of a dye plume rising some significant an suspenseful pause after the bottom of the beaker has been briefly heated with a single match unleashes curiosity. More is to follow as a ghostly vibration travels from a test tube into the hands of a profoundly moved student. Most would dismiss it a weird and look around to detract some idle trait that would all the slumber of the mind to permeate all dimensions of existence, time, social structure. However, this student is imaging holding a star, and for this student the realm of the distant ensemble of happenings that appear in the construct of school is reaching out and shaking them. This is personal, and personal is good when it comes to science.

The journey of discovery pauses as student happen upon the global ocean conveyor that transports life giving energy to what would be otherwise frozen climes. Winter is coming, The reasons are there is the script of our every day life. We are yet to decode the significance and the sincerity of those who would covert our future.

This is just awful guff, but it is flowing out and I am surprised to see what comes out as I type. The issue here is that many people spruik (Australian for sales pitch)  education as a heroic saga and grand vision but it is more a fabric of authentic moments in time. This moment in time comes as the class undergoes intellectual convection seeing that they are the masters of this phenomena, some work well others less so. The environmental vision is cast: how are we going on experiment earth?
