Why ask why?
• "Why?" is the most important question, not asked nearly enough.Hint: "Because I said so," is not a valid answer.Why does it work this way?
• Why is that our goal?• Why did you say no?• Why are we treating people differently?• Why is this our policy?• Why don't we enter this market?• Why did you change your mind?• Why are we having this meeting?• Why not?•

...we need to rethink the stories we tell about socio-technical change and the future of education. We need to reclaim the right of educators, students and communities to challenge the orthodox future we are being sold, and to imagine and build viable alternatives. Only by rewriting the stories we tell ourselves about the relationship between education, technology and social change we ensure that schools are really equipped to prepare all of their students for the future. - Keri Facer, "Learning Futures"
