Collaborative Education

Collaborative education refers to collaboration between teacher and student to make that relationship mutually beneficial for the sake of learning on both sides:

1. Student is willing to change role with teacher, and vice versa. Relationship is fluid and without ego.
2. Teacher is willing to be corrected, and therefore is willing to learn
3. Student is willing to be corrected, and therefoer is willing to learn
4. It is the teacher's responsibility to correct the student, if student cannot correct themselves
5. It is the student's responsibility to correct the teacher, if the teacher cannot correct themselves.
6. Silence is acquiescence

Applications: if material is presented and nobody questions it or corrects it, that material becomes the accepted version of 'the truth.' This applies to both the curriculum and its applications. For example, if a student designs something and the teacher doesn't question it, the design is assumed to be correct.
