Many people go to school for getting the information from teacher. Diana talked about her experience of teaching in some schools. Internet become an educational tool for getting information. she start teaching from Wisconsin and to small town in Kansas, she teaching an subject about American government. The students of 12th grade in that school is very enthusiastic about that subject. She change her tactic of teaching with give students studying by them self and they make anything for study about government and politics. The students show their experiential and authentic to her. Next, from Kansan she move to Arizona and teach students about geography topic. She start to make a kids to identify about themselves and make an short movie using their own voice and its very awesome. Then, she teach at science leadership Academy in Pennsylvania. The students there bringing laptop everyday for getting the information and produce the info-graphic that result of a unit that they decided to do at the end of the year responding the spill oil. The students is uncomfortable with that so, she push them to do what they can produce and motivated them about the project. The main point , if we look at education and go to school for getting the information not for experiential learning, students voice and embracing failure, we are missing the mark. The mistake provide us to learn and how to change the other way in teaching. This is also the chance for us to deepen understanding in teaching.
