(ITA - 2013 - 1 FASE) 5 WAYS TO TURN FEAR INTO FUEL Editors note:This is a guest post from Jonathan Fields, author ofUncertainty: Turning Fear and Doubt Into Fuel for Brilliance. Uncertainty. Its a terrifying word. Living with it, dangling over your head like the sword of Damocles, day in day out, is enough to send anyone spiraling into a state of anxiety, fear and paralysis. Like it or not, though, uncertainty is the new normal. We live in a time where the world is in a state of constant, long-term flux. And, thats not all. If you want to spend your time on the planet not just getting-by, but consistently creating art, experiences, businesses and lives that truly matter, youll need to proactively seek out, invite and even deliberately amplify uncertainty. Because the other side of uncertainty is opportunity. Nothing great was ever created by waiting around for someone to tell you its all going to be okay or for perfect information to drop from the sky. Doesnt happen that way. Great work requires you to act in the face of uncertainty, to live in the question long enough for your true potential to emerge. There is no alternative. When you find the strength to act in the face of uncertainty, you till the soil of genius. Problem is, that kills most people. It leads to unease, anxiety, fear and doubt on a level that snuffs out most genuinely meaningful and potentially revolutionary endeavors before they even see the light of day. Not because they wouldnt have succeeded, but because you never equipped yourself to handle and even harness the emotional energy of the journey. But, what if it didnt have to be that way? What if there was a way to turn the fear, anxiety and self-doubt that rides along with acting in the face of uncertaintythe head-to-toe butterfliesinto fuel for brilliance? Turns out, there is. 1Your ability to lean into the unknown isnt so much about luck or genetics, rather its something entirely trainable. Ive spent the past few years interviewing world-class creators across a wide range of fields and pouring over research that spans neuroscience, decision-theory, psychology, creativity and business. Through this work, a collection of patterns, practices and strategies have emerged that not only turbocharge insight, creativity, innovation and problem-solving, but also help ameliorate so much of the suffering so often associated with the pursuit of any creative quest.

(ITA - 2013 - 1 FASE) Reboot the School SALMAN KHANS YOUTUBE LESSONS HAVE ALREADY MADE HIM A GEEK CELEBRITY. NOW HE WANTS TO REINVENT HOMEWORK, BANISH CLASSROOM LECTURESAND MAYBE SAVE EDUCATION. By Kayla Webley [1]Fifth-graders at Eastside College Preparatory School in East Palo Alto, Calif., sit at their desks with netbooks. Theyre in the middle of a math lesson, listening as a teacher explains how to convert percentages to decimals. If we get rid of the percent sign, we just have to move the decimal sign two places to the left, the instructor says. Pens scribble across notebooks. [5]Eleven thousand miles away in Accra, Ghana, students at the African School for Excellence are studying logarithms. Their teacher is the same one firing off math tips in Californiaboth groups of kids are learning by watching online videos. While the screen shows a march of equations and diagrams, the students never actually see the face of the lecturer. Theres just a voice, deep, patient and unrehearsedthink NPR host crossed with Mister Rogers. His inflection rises at times to [10] underscore a point or when he gets really excited. Math is not just random things to memorize and regurgitate on a test next week, he says. Its the purest way of describing the universe! The voice belongs to Salman Khan, a 35-year-old hedge-fund manager turned YouTube professor to millions around the world. Thanks to his Khan Academy, an online repository of some 3,250 digital lectures, he has become a celebrity to techies, educators and uncounted high [15]schoolers cramming for the AP biology test. His 18-minute discourse on the Krebs cycle and cell metabolism has been viewed more than 675,000 times. But Khan isnt satisfied with being the most famous teacher ever to appear on a Web browser. He believes he has stumbled onto a solution to some of educations most intractable problems, with his video-driven teaching method at its heart. He wants to fundamentally change the [20]role of teachers in the classroomand redefine the concept of homework along the way. And he has persuaded Bill Gates, Googles Eric Schmidt and a minor constellation of other tech billionaires to back this quest. Education reform is notoriously difficult. K-12 schools are debating everything from teacher evaluations to standardized tests, with no consensus in sight. Universities, meanwhile, are [25]confronting massive budget cuts and new kinds of competitionas dramatized by the recent turmoil at the University of Virginia. Its board fired the president amid worries that UVa wasnt keeping up with change and embracing online education fast enough, then rehired her 16 days later after a backlash from students and faculty. At all levels, theres plenty of skepticism about any tech-centric approach to teaching. An [30]estimated $65.7 billion was spent in the U.S. last year on education technology, according to research firm Gartner. But many educators say there is little concrete proof of its benefits. Khan is already butting up against veteran teachers nervous about their roles in his brave new classroom. But the biggest obstacle of all may be Khan himself. For all his grassroots fandom and Silicon Valley cred, hes not an educator, and hes never worked with children. Are parents and [35]teachers ready to upend hundreds of years of precedent about how basic subjects are taught on the word of a guy who has spent more time analyzing financial statements than standing before a blackboard?
