A NOTE ABOUT ALL ONE COMMUNITY LESSON PLANS

The One Community lesson plans are intentionally designed for use in ANY educational environment and with ALL educational, cultural, religious/spiritual, and philosophical approaches to teaching and learning. They are designed without an ideological approach and specifically so they can be adapted to include the views, preferences, methodologies, and/or ideologies preferred by different parents and teachers.

For maximum flexibility and adaptation, they are also designed to be combined to teach multiple subjects at the same time. Doing this increases the creativity, effectiveness, and fun of your learning environment. Once we are on the property and operating our version of the complete school and Education for Life program, we will be adding video examples of how to combine the lessons. In the meantime, visit the Teaching Strategies page for a list of suggestions.

Innovation

  • Practice* a consciousness activity, such as meditation, that you think will help you learn about and understand awareness. Talk about your experience and what you liked about it.
  • Practice your creativity skills by using your consciousness to develop and share* a new consciousness raising activity.
  • Study 5 different consciousness raising activities including breathing, centering and relaxation techniques. Develop your own technique or combination* and teach 5 others how to use your unique tool to raise their consciousness.
  • Read three resources on ‘systems strategies’ and then develop and begin to use a personal system strategy* to raise your consciousness and improve your learning skills. Write a 3 page paper about your strategy and results.
  • Choose a system from the blue section of Innovation. Prepare a speech about applying consciousness within that system. Present the speech* to professionals in that field.
  • Study a group of innovators. Create an open source multi-media presentation* about how these creative thinkers applied consciousness to create their new ideas. Get your presentation to ‘go viral’.
  • Develop a line of consciousness based motivational and inspirational products, services, and/or brands* that empower millions of people to change their lives.

* Please note that anything with an asterisk is just a suggestion. The diversity of options with asterisks are interchangeable and purposed to stimulate your own ideas. Any one of these suggestions could be replaced with a written paper, any form of art project (drawing, painting, music, paper mache, clay, wood, knitting/embroidery, metals, etc. etc.), an experiment, a presentation, a mindmap, a computer program, a web design project, a piece of poetry or a song, an interpretive dance or play, a group project, or anything else. What we feel is most important is that both the Learner and the Teacher agree on an exercise/activity they both feel would be maximally engaging, fun, and effective. If you come up with an idea we haven’t already thought of, please share it with us.
