Bold New Creative Thinking – One Community Weekly Progress Update #97

Bold new creative thinking can create a world that is sustainable and works for everyone. One Community is leading the facilitation of this through open source and free-shared teacher/demonstration hub creation. These hubs will start with One Community and combine replicable solutions for food, energy, housing, education, economics, fulfilled living and earth stewardship, all for The Highest Good of All:

• Here’s our project overview
• Here’s our world-change methodology
• Here’s how this becomes self-replicating
• Here’s how we are open source and free-sharing all the do-it-yourself designs

ONE COMMUNITY WEEKLY UPDATE DETAILS

HIGHEST GOOD EDUCATION PROGRESS

One Community is forwarding bold new creative thinking through Highest Good education that is for all ages, applicable in any environment, adaptable to individual needs, far exceeds traditional education standards, and more fun for both the teachers and the students:

• Learn about the components: Education open source hub
• Learn how the components work together: How to use the Education for Life Program
  

This last week the core team created the final 50% of the lesson plan mindmap for the lesson with the central theme of “Dreams”. You can see that here showing a beautiful graphic overview of how to teach all subjects, to any learning level, in any learning environment using this central theme of “Dreams”:

To go along with this, we also finished the final 50% of the Dreams Lesson Plan webpage that contains the complete lesson plan specifics associated with this mindmap. Check it out and use the links on the page to share your own ideas to make it even better.

Also, we finished the first 20% of the new Lesson Plans How-to purposed to teach the specifics of how each of these lesson plans is meant to be used. When complete, this new page will give a complete and detailed example of exactly how to combine all the components of any of the lesson plans for an all-subject week-long lesson plan for any age, learning level, and environment:

Behind the scenes we finished another 25% of the earthdome window and door framing descriptions Draft A. This brings us to 75% complete there to go with the 75% we have complete for the Skethcup 3-D aspects of this.
