Absolutely love the idea, there are a lot of interesting and thought provoking ways to introduce complex ideas and I would really like to see more of these ways utilized in our educational system.
First time is never the best. It is dangerous to be right when the system is wrong - Voltaire. It is tiring to be the lone innovative teacher when most of other teachers are just doing a job of coercive teaching and managing by control. Second time round, Lucien could tap the energies of students, involve them in lesson design and watch them compete constructively in attempting to show their capabilities of self-learning. The ultimate way to learn is to attempt to teach, or explain a learned concept. A skilful teacher, upon a lesson that failed to engage half the class, would design a learning chain that starts with a primer and selected connector(s) identified in class. Then wait for the chain effect to take effect as each student(s) pass on the concept to be learned. While the teacher checks in at various points with selected students to reinforce understanding using lots of encouragement on efforts put in and re-trying to forge understanding. The young is motivated by a combination of encouragement and support for their own initiatives. Plus some urge to out-perform peers that can be managed with doses of empathy insisted by the teachers.

This is what Education should be.. Physically involved instead of copying books and memorizing the boring process.
Great concepts for 21st century education. Thank you for your intellectual capital contributions to education! Looking forward to your growth.
this is a great concept. all the learning looks like a lot of fun and i'm sure that these students are getting a big passion for lifelong learning :)
