OSE Method

Goal

The goal of Extreme Education is learning design-engineering-build skills in weeks compared to years in standard academic programs by combining open design, rapid learning facilities of kitted modular experiments, and direct usage (dogfooding) such that project-based learning meets end-use and enterprise opportunity. Thus builds upon Perry's model of moral development and Sternberg's model of acquiring wisdom through feedback from real consequences.

General Innovation

• We ask what is best in the world
• We continue with a claim that some of our design is best in the world, best in class. Then we define what 'best in the world' means by attributes.
• We don't claim we have it already. But we explain closely how the 'best in the world' is highly achievable by collaboration.
  • Explain the industry standard
  • Explain the industry intertia
  • And explain the requirements for breakthrough
  • Key breakthrough points are product ecosystem, modularity, inclusion, collaboration, pattern language - all together integrated design and integrated enterprise.
• We explain how 'best in the world' is highly replicable, and therefore inclusive
• Then we present the public with a choice - with the positive psychology of 'do you want to be good or do you want to be great?' A la good is the enemy of great.

School

• Curriculum for Civilization Construction in every school.
• Create an elementary/high school version- encouraging capable kids to get inspired. Do a version especially for elementary/high school, or maybe make the main effort at that level so it can really be understood.
