Schools are networks of material and human actors—organised around

learning—of such density that schooling appears to act as one(‘education’).

In the ‘actor-networks’ of educational literacy,

alphabets are mutable, mobile objects;

reading and writing are techniques;

There is no such stuff as information or knowledge.

I want to suggest to you that learning is selforganising network activity

involving humans, objects and ideas; and that monitoring has joined classifying as a core intellectual competence.

Monitoring inevitably generates conflicting or limiting behaviours and ideas that obstruct learning.

This implies that in- and exclusion are formal schooling effects.

We might reorganise truly inclusive education around those contemporary competences and technologies that can accellerate,

distribute and selforganise many forms of learning.

We can take school teaching out of learning.
