Harmonica - the early thinking

Over the past year or so i have read, experienced and reflected on the way in which we learn. Reading various books and papers which made explicit links to the principle of 10,000hours; Carol Dwecks work on Mindsets and Dan Pinks work on Motivation. This coupled with my own experiences of professional educators being faced with taking responsibility for their own learning all led me to wonder what could be achieved with a totally self directed approach through effective and appropriate use of technology.

If you are not familiar with the 10,000 hours, Mindset etc materials I have created a pearltree in which you will find a range of resources and references - feel free to take a few pearls
