That title comes out of a 2004 essay published in Columbia’s Teachers College Record laying out the desired “Pedagogical Praxis” to use computers and other ICT technology in the classroom to reinvigorate John Dewey’s 1915 idea of linking school with society. The idea is that we are living in a technological Postindustrial society that calls for different habits of mind and understandings than in the past. And let there be no doubt, the author, an AI prof by the name of David W Shaffer, said explicitly that “the approach is psychological” and involves the social and moral development of students. Which really does sound like what the Canadians have acknowledged is the real common core being imposed on global education–new values, attitudes, and beliefs. Another prof we will get to today added changed “mores” to that list as well.

Mysteries surround Chris Dorner manhunt
Three days after a mountain cabin in Seven Oaks, California, has been burned down, the coroner's office has positively identified the body inside as that of Ex-LAPD officer Christopher Dorner. Mystery might have been solved, but many other questions remain about this case. Was the cabin fire an accident? How did everything really play out? What took the authorities so long to contact the fire department? Another important question is exactly how much money and police resources were spent on finding this man, and that is a question authorities have refused to answer. What's known is that some 20 law enforcement agencies were involved that used helicopters, SWAT teams and infrared cameras. Journalist Max Blumenthal joins us to talk more on this massive effort to find one man.

Gladio Revisited
As one of the most thoroughly-documented examples of a decades-long program of officially-sanctioned false flag terror, Operation Gladio remains a woefully under-reported piece of the War on Terror puzzle. Today we go behind the trite summarizations of this program to look at it in-depth, examine its roots, and discover how it is continuing to operate right through to the present day.
