Lecture by Simon Perkins
Summarizing the lecture, I have walked away with the following:
truly original=if nobody else understands it i.e. they can't relate to it as it is brand new
I think that is an essential, lost gem of the true meaning of 'originality'.
People over-exploite the word 'original' nowadays - it's been so commercialize in such a way 'originality' has become the spokesman of 'old school'. Well it aint.
Modernism is about the truth, and post-modernism is all about lies and arguments. Theres logic in trying to find the truth, but its mainly about the process of getting there.
to take things out of context, see problems from a different perspective - its an idealistic opportunity served to you on a gold plate - and it can't get any better than that. By strategically coming up with a solution, it means an advantage, in blatent terms sucess.
Once again, we visit our old friend Schön - the all time great theorist of the reflective learning.

The book, Reflection in Learning and Professional Development: Theory and Practice by Jennifer A. Moon, is once again useful. Now i understand why the book is useful.
However, I have yet to finish the book since I've started last year, still.
