This concept sounds fantastic, although it sounds like it could be a lot of work at first to implement. In an ideal world we would like students to have intrinsic motivation oozing out of them; however, I think that is something that we need to build up to. I'm sure the two schools in Maine that have this system do a great job at it because they've had time to make it possible. Like anything, trial and error, and making adjustments makes success. I could certainly see myself incorporating this concept into my classroom because it does have many benefits of done correctly. However, I don't necessarily think I would be able to commit to basing my entire education practice on it unless I had a lot of practice.
As far as the presentation I thought it was wonderfully done. Each group member did a portion that flowed smoothly and with ease. I LOVED being able to get up and move around. Going outside was a blast and fit very nicely into the idea of expeditionary learning. The Haiku idea was also a lot of fun. I am, however, a little disappointed I didn't win the Kahoot. I probably should be better...
Nice job all around, bravo.
