A Monkey in a Circus

There is a circus. And there is a monkey. The monkey is riding a bicycle. The audience is applauding, because it thinks that the monkey can ride the bicycle. But it can't. If it would go to the city it would be overdriven in the third crossroads. It is able to do just the trick in the familiar arena.

We have to teach our students to think themselves and to cope in completely new situations. Lots of guidance is needed here, not easy and ready-made answers.

That's competence based learning. Handbook for dummies, the brief illustrated edition.

I had a good conversation with Mr. Hammer in Saxion today. That's where the monkey came.

Yours,
