What’s your dangerous idea for education?
Dangerous Ed is back!!! Colleges Development Network is delighted to announce that the Festival of Dangerous Ideas will run again this year from 13-21 June 2013.
This year’s festival will be launched in Glasgow by world leading social entrepreneur Mel Young. Mel is President and CEO of the Homeless World Cup and Co-founder of The Big Issue in Scotland. Through his experience of working with the homeless, Mel has developed his own dangerous ideas for education.
There will be events happening throughout the week all over Scotland – co-created by people who are passionate about education. Events so far include:
- A walk on the wild side – an adventure through the wilderness – exploring and creating over the weekend
- Dangerous assessment – revolutionizing marking and assessment
- Creative and dangerous – conversations across the nation
- Game on – creating learning environments virtually
- Un-conference – you decide the agenda
- Online forums with dangerous dares and job swaps
