The challenge I face when presenting intelligent curriculum, curriculum that challenges a person to think, is that not everyone wants to open their mind to thoughts or ideas that do not support and reinforce their already formulated beliefs. Seth Godin wrote an excellent blog this week stating - “Is it possible we’ve made things simpler than they ought to be, and established non-curiosity as the new standard?”
How we look at things sometimes is only a product of inherited dogma. Intelligent curriculum promotes curiosity and creativity. Curious creativity has always shaken the pillars of the world.
“When you're young, you look at television and think, there's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that's not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want.” - Steve Jobs (1955 - 2011)
