Disrupting Class

This looks like a worthy interview:

I need to listen to it.

Failure Research

I have noticed two things recently:

1. Failure is usually only talked about as an individual experience rather than a group experience. There may be something to failing in groups that can help us understand things more.

2. There are a lot of books about learning from failure, but not necessarily about "how to fail better". The exception is a book I just came across entitled: "Fail Up" by Tavis Smiley (link). this book looks interesting. It appears to be principle-based more so than method- or technique-based. I will have to look into it.
