Secrets of Super Learners

Graig Lambert post on what it means/takes to be a super learner. He includes a link to a pdf of the original article. Very cool! Again, there is a focus on creativity as the foundation of learning. Again via Stephen Downes.

Tony Buzan - Teaching How to Learn

This is an awesome little video of Tony Buzan (mind mapping guru) talking about the importance of nurturing creativity in education. The point being that creativity is the foundation of learning. He includes some great stats about the "learned" loss of creativity as we age. He makes the point that creativity is innate but like everything else, you have to use it or you may just lose it.
