What if... kids making kids smarter?

Blind portraits from Expeditionaries October 2018, hosted by Fordham University’s Social Innovation Collaboratory. The portraits plus empathy interviews and strengths-based reflections allow learners the opportunity to recognize that their peers are “smart” in a lot of different ways.



What if learning experiences enabled kids to make each other smarter—by design?

*Inspired by “ADHD, Creativity, and the Concept of Group Intelligence,” by Peter Gray, in Psychology Today.

Each Wednesday we share a "what if" scenario. These are not suggestions as much as provocations.

If you have a "what if" scenario you would like to share, just send an email (and indicate whether you would like it attributed it to you).
