Rewriting the Imaginary: Educators as Moral Agents of Reinstitution
What if the greatest barrier to change in education is not technology or funding, but the way we imagine what education is?
Institutions are never neutral. They carry histories, values, and priorities that shape what is possible in teaching and learning. When we accept these frameworks as fixed, even our innovations can end up reinforcing their limits.
In my latest blog post, I explore how educators can act as moral agents of reinstitution, helping to rewrite the structures and values that underpin education: e-learning-rules.com/blog/0045…
What changes could you make in your own context that challenge the default system rather than adapt to it?

Canadian nuclear assets and largest ever public contract being sold to US nuke consortium
The latest bit of craziness that is going under the radar, but we shouldn't let it:
- Background: Canadian Nuclear Laboratories as part of Atomic Energy of Canada used to be a Crown asset ; after $18 billion of public funds it was privatized by Harper for $17 million. Sold to who? good old SNC Lavelin!
- SNC Lavelin recently renamed itself to Atkins Realis, I can't imagine why./s
- Now they are selling Canadian Nuclear Laboratories to a US consortium, along with a huge public 20 year $24 billion contract.
- The US consortium operates nuclear weapons facilities
- WTF?! WTF?! WTF?!
- Elbows Up?
-see petition below - there's more - we haven't discussed the nuclear waste yet...guess where it is going ...not with the money!

Alone at the lake...just relaxing
How beautiful it is to find these secluded places in nature. We parked so close to a lake....mountains in the distance. Super quiet. Just the 2 of us basically camping for several days. Nothing eventful, just an example of how this motorhoming life can be at times: relaxing. Nothing more, nothing less.Pantano de los Bermejales :)
