Constructive Subversion
Is there “…something about political and bureaucratic life that subdues the functioning of intellect in favor of ‘working the levers’ without regard to rational expectations.”
Groupthink
“A deterioration of mental efficiency, reality testing, and moral judgement that results from in-group
pressures”
Janis, 1982
The bystander effect
“The best teachers are subversive”
“The key to learning from mistakes was not to stick blindly to the official chain of command but to subvert it where necessary, not to seek unanimity but to listen to dissenters.”
Positive Deviance
“Disruptive innovation frequently starts in the margins rather than the mainstream.”
Socratic Inquiry
“Help all students develop built-in, shockproof crap
detectors as basic equipment in their
survival kits.”
“If the structure does not permit dialogue
the structure must be changed.”
“Actively subvert on pedagogy, passively
submit to curriculum.”
Lee Crockett
