A BREAKTHROUGH in PUBLIC SCHOOLING:
the NEW LEAD OUT METHOD
brings out the best from students, no matter their color, background or zip code.
BREAKTHROUGH IDEA
The KEY to learning JUST RIGHT for each?
EDUCATING for AUTONOMY.
EDUCATING as originally understood,
is DIFFERENT from LEARNING.
EDUCATING for AUTONOMY makes it possible for each to LEARN IN THE ZONE.
ONLY by EXERCISING AUTONOMY
can children,
born SPONGES of LEARNING

HELP EACH OTHER
continue ACTIVATING MOTIVATION
choosing CHALLENGES in the zone for each.

First, WHY DO SCHOOLS FAIL?
Despite the goodness that teachers bring daily?
It's CURIOUS.
Why DON'T CHILDREN LEARN in school, when BORN SPONGES OF LEARNING?

YOU KNOW WHY SCHOOLS FAIL.
School districts are 1-SIZE-FITS-ALL
but students are ALL DIFFERENT.
The natural results?
Learning motivation is SUPPRESSED with challenges TOO EASY or TOO DIFFICULT for TOO MANY.

Budding independence is STUNTED, independence students NEED to learn just right for each.
The PROBLEM is NOT teachers or students.
(Parents don't go to school.)
The PROBLEM is using a 1-SIZE-FITS-ALL METHOD — when students are ALL DIFFERENT
PEOPLE adopted the 1-SIZE-FITS-ALL METHOD.
PEOPLE can CHANGE THE METHOD.
Enter the LEAD OUT METHOD:
a BREAKTHROUGH in solving the RIGHT PROBLEM.
WHAT PROBLEM, if solved, would enable every student to succeed?
UNDERSTANDING the BREAKTHROUGH RIGHT PROBLEM
There is NO WAY around it. (It's OBVIOUS.)
Because students are ALL DIFFERENT,

we are going to have to GRANT students MORE AUTONOMY so they can learn just right for each.
The PROBLEM:
STUDENTS ARE NOT BORN READY FOR AUTONOMY!
Readiness for MORE AUTONOMY emerges over time,
and is AIDED with GUIDANCE.
NOTE: TECHNOLOGY CANNOT SOLVE THIS VERY HUMAN PROBLEM.
The BREAKTHROUGH solution:
The NEW LEAD OUT METHOD
EDUCATES for AUTONOMY (making it safe to GRANT more AUTONOMY),
AUTONOMY students EXERCISE
to ACTIVATE learning MOTIVATION
by HELPING each other CHOOSE CHALLENGES IN THE ZONE.
The CORE IDEA as a simple IF-AND-THEN statement:
IF we could (and we can) EDUCATE for AUTONOMY (psychology),
educate that is, from the Latin educere, to lead out the student from within,
ABLE to better ASK and HEAR the WISE PART WITHIN that we all have
and with THE SKILL OF THE WILL able to follow through on choices
AND safely grant
the freedom students need
to help each other use LEAN/AGILE techniques
to ACTIVATE learning MOTIVATION
by choosing challenges IN THE ZONE for each
THEN students CAN learn JUST RIGHT for each
EACH and EVERY day.
It makes LOGICAL SENSE.
SEE FOR YOURSELF HOW THIS NEW LEAD OUT METHOD WORKS.
COMPARE to the 1-SIZE-FITS-ALL METHOD.
1 Which is OBVIOUSLY better for OUR CHILDREN?
1 The LEAD OUT METHOD EDUCATES and EXERCISES growing AUTONOMY
EDUCATION is for AUTONOMY, coming as it does from the Latin educere, to lead out students' ability to lead themselves more autonomously (using psychology).
Students EXERCISE their ability to ask and better hear the wise part within that we all have.
Students EXERCISE the SKILL-OF-THE-WILL, discovering they can do just about anything.
As READINESS for AUTONOMY emerges over time, GUIDED with EDUCATING, it does become safe to GRANT more AUTONOMY.
The 1-size-fits-all method STUNTS AUTONOMY by preventing it's exercise.
Instead, the method gives learning challenges to students, who are ALL different, TOO EASY for some, TOO DIFFICULT for others.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to teach a student any better, who has ALREADY learned, or is UNREADY for the lesson.
