Just a few random thoughts that I've been tinkering with as of late, or that I've been tinkering with for a while.
Curriculum as student: students define their curriculum because of who they are today, not because of what they should be. Who does curriculum think you are? Recall Ellsworth's paper.
21st century learning: learning communities whose individuals have differentiated skills, or should everyone have to know the same thing? See a paper by Katerine Bielaczyc and Allan Collins, Learning Communities in Classrooms: Advancing Knowledge for a Lifetime, in the NASSP Bulletin, Febraury 1999.
Justice in education: what's right? Career education first? Maybe show career paths to with detailed presentations of the skills, not just the courses to take, to get there.
A just society, what should it look like? Pierre Trudeau had a vision of one. Did Canada become a better place after Trudeau?
