A NOTE ABOUT ALL ONE COMMUNITY LESSON PLANS

The One Community lesson plans are intentionally designed for use in ANY educational environment and with ALL educational, cultural, religious/spiritual, and philosophical approaches to teaching and learning. They are designed without an ideological approach and specifically so they can be adapted to include the views, preferences, methodologies, and/or ideologies preferred by different parents and teachers.

For maximum flexibility and adaptation, they are also designed to be combined to teach multiple subjects at the same time. Doing this increases the creativity, effectiveness, and fun of your learning environment. Once we are on the property and operating our version of the complete school and Education for Life program, we will be adding video examples of how to combine the lessons. In the meantime, visit the Teaching Strategies page for a list of suggestions.

Humility Technology Theme Icon

Technology

  • Pick a piece of software/hardware technology* that you feel you know well and find a way to learn something about it from someone you consider less knowledgeable than you are. Be humble during the process and discuss what effects this had on your success and why it is important to be open to others advice no matter their level of experience.
  • Create a blueprint* of how to use the internet as a resource to get advice on anything.
  • Create a group podcast* on humility with the focus on being more humble and grateful and how it is received better or worse than boasting or complaining.
  • Gather data on local implementation and usage of transportation systems and create an online resource* that evaluates importance of that system for the daily life of locals. Share the following findings/data selflessly* via open source to make it accessible to the public.
  • Organize a team and take part in* a ‘For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology’ (FIRST) Team competition, or other similar technology based team event.
  • Write a dissertation* creating an argument that ‘the internet was the biggest technological advancement of the 21st century’ making the world smaller than before and making people bigger by giving them a tool to reach out further focusing on people reshaping their use and perception of information technology. Incorporate the aspect of the power of sharing information and freedom of speech in terms of possibly exposing/humiliating yourself or others to the public.

Humility Innovation Theme Icon

Innovation

  • Find a partner and ask* him/her about their innovative ideas. Practice humility while listening by listening with highest focus and not speaking for as long as it takes for your partner to be complete.
  • Listen intently* while somebody tells you a story of a time they felt humility. Practice humility while listening by having your eyes closed and focusing on visualization and being in the other person’s skin rather than trying to interject your thoughts during the story.
  • Find a person that has more life experience than you* and ask for advice* for an issue you are facing and about suggestions and ways to tackle it.
  • Create a questionnaire/test form* on the subject of how people prepare themselves for tests where competing with others is important (in school, sports, business, etc.) and distribute it to 25-50 people. Then compile the results in a format that is usable to others.
  • Create a workgroup and teach others exercises* on how to be more humble.
  • Write a summary and an overview* of a book about future human evolution and present your creation at a relevant regional event.
  • Write a comprehensive report* on the alignment of goals of top world Change Organizations (such as Tesla motor company, Venus Project, One Community, Buckminster Fuller Institute, Cornucopia Institute, Union of Concerned Scientist, Friends of the Earth). Include your perspective of how each relates to and to what extent each practices humility and create your own outline* of what a world changing organization could look like.
