Imagine.

This evening in my grad seminar, Stacey gave us an opportunity to imagine with markers. This is typically my favorite way of imagining, because something magical happens when I have an art utensil in my hand. It sort of triggers a rainbow of creativity, and unicorns, and things.

Sort of.

Tonight my action research became something entirely new. Up until this exercise, I imagined my product as a graphic novel, which is neat, but kind of ambitious for completing in less than 6 months. I still want to do this - one day - because I think the best philosophy should be able to be distilled into something that is accessible. I love the idea of making education philosophy that even those "being educated" could understand. For me, The Little Prince is far more brilliant than say, The Prince.

One of my colleagues posted this whiteboard animation about education paradigms a while back, and it got circulated quickly and often on Facebook. After doing whiteboard art for years, everything started clicking into place and I imagined my product as a whiteboard animation. All the ideas worth mentioning in 10 minutes or less, and fun drawings to go alongside it. This may change, but it is a fun imagination for the day.
