• Who Are You?• What Do You Do?• Who Do You Work For?• How Does That Work Help Them
Change For the Better?
Only ONE question Matters
• Who Are You?• What Do You Do?• Who Do You Work For?• How Does That Work Help Them
Change For the Better?
Sartre has no HeartExistentialism is a Humanism
“Existence Precedes Essence”
• One EXISTS, then makes CHOICES• YOU are responsible for your “self”
• Out of Fear, We stand by;Others Choose for UsThen we COMPLAIN!
• We play a ROLEYou ARE NOT your ROLE.Chris vs. Mr.Kozak
Failures in Education• All Cultures around the world are reforming their education.• Current Education:
– Conceived in the Enlightenment– Implemented during the Industrial Revolution– Work Ethic built from the Early American Calvanists
• Kant: Deontology – “Moral worth based on Duty”
• Perspective- 1989 only 90% of students were in HS• Today. We are the Most educated than ever before.

Popular Praise
• Why work harder, when I already have the Reward?
• Carol Dweck – – Boring = Fixed Mind Set. (Zoned Out,
Locked)– Praise Intelligence = Scared to risk their
current level• “How Smart You Are!”
– Praise Process = Desire• “You worked very hard on that!, would you like
a new challenge? Something even more challenging?”
Pressure Builds Diamonds• Dr. Ivan Joseph
– We all need something novel to keep our attention.• Repetition = memorization and nothing more• Persistence = Never Accept “NO” and gain Understanding.
– Wisdom vs Intellect
Self Talk / Self Doubt
• Compassion– We all self doubt– I’m doing it right now.– So do your students and your boss
Spiral Out of Control• No Child Left Behind – 2002. All Schools must bring Proficiency to 100%
– So 15 States from 2005-2007 lowered what their“Proficient” scores were.
• In Jan. 2016 – GED lowered passing by 5 points (now 145 minimum)• Cheating Pressures rising.
– Get it “Right”– Art is SUBJECTIVE (We Objectify it in order to grade it)
• We can potentially be ANYTHING– Psychology, Sociology, Mathematics, Creative Writing… We ARE Cross
Curricular– Work toward Piaget’s Formal Operational Stage
• Hypothetical Thinking, Reason / Logic, Abstract Thinking

THE PROBLEM
$
• “Relationships - of all kinds - are like sand held in your hand. Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold onto it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly, too possessively, and the relationship slips away and is lost.”– Kaleel Jamison, The Nibble Theory and Kernel of Power
Machiavelli“Better to be Loved or Feared”

Do Grades Predict Success?
• Stephen J. Dubner – Freakonomics– Self Control/Self Calming
• External Locus of Control– Fate, Timing, Divine Intervention, Gold Stars
• Internal Locus of Control– Self Conviction and Account
• Self Governing Law – “Do Unto Others…”
Changes Through Critical Thinking• Use internet, but make the questions difficult and research
based• Give a 30 question test, allow students to make off 10
questions. (You only attempted to have 20 to start with)• Work in Groups on complex cognitive questions• Strict Deadlines• Upload Online• In Person and Online Critiques
Examples:
Better the Self in order to Better Others
• No Desk/Standing Desk• Music – Up Tempo in Class• Clutter Free = Respect
Raise the Bar
The Future is Now• Trying to Teach for the future using methods that worked in
the past• VR, AR, Online Collaboration, Hybrid• The Future is Self Education / Self Directed / Autodidacticism
– Leonardo DaVinci• We are working towards our
own Extinction…• Unless we understand
and Embrace.
