“Education must begin with the solution of the teacher-student contradiction, by reconciling the poles of the contradiction so that both are simultaneously students and teachers”

Dave Cormier
“a rhizomatic model of learning in which a
community can construct a model of
education flexible enough for the way
knowledge develops and changes today by
producing a map of contextual
knowledge.”
