Creating Your Own Education

Exactly what I’ve been wanting to try with my 8th graders…

Create Your Own Assignments « Teaching as a dynamic activity: “This semester I am planning to let students create or choose their own assignments. “

I just have to be brave enough to trust what I know they can do and give up the preconceptions of what “assignments” and “assessments” really mean.

Quit your job and teach.

“Practice resurrection.”

New here? Start with these pieces that sketch what I mean by “Ecology of the Cross.”

  • What is the Ecology of the Cross?
    An overview paper that lays out the integral ecology of the cross and why kenosis + ecological intentionality matter.
  • Process Ecology of the Cross
    A deeper dive into communion, kenosis, fire, and planetary politics through a process-relational lens.
  • Why Edith Stein matters here
    How The Science of the Cross became the metaphysical and spiritual backbone of this whole project.
  • Hildegard, Viriditas, and the Cross
    Greening, viriditas, and how a medieval mystic’s vision feeds an ecological theology of the cross.
  • Ecological Intentionality
    The AAR paper that frames “ecological intentionality” as performing peace beyond human boundaries.
