Why would?
Teachers:
I think administrators would have motivation to make this change because they could also learn while they teach, since no two people hink the same their students would mostly have different perspectives and understanding on certain things. Also they would most likely enjoy their class since the students would actually want to learn and share.
Students:
Students would be motivated to make this change because it mostly benefits them. If this change was made school would be fun and students wouldn't be counting the minutes untill class was over instead they would be counting for when in begun! Also they would relate topics to what they like and what they understand, they would have a lot of freedom. Also I think they would want to learn it would become more like a hobby instead of a duty.
Parents:
Parents would benefit from this change because they would have kids who enjoyed learning and would always be trying to really understand things. Since they learn how they like best they would not have to study as much and have more free time.
5 Ideas of How I'm going to make this happen.
- No textbooks
-Very CREATIVE staff
-lots of feild trips
- free time to socialize
- presentations(you choose how you want to skys the limit)

Summary of Article 1: Star Wars in the Rocket City: Inside the science of Episode V with spaceships and light speed travel

This article talks about the possibility of traveling at the speed f light, they conclude that it would be impossible considering the theory of relativity develpoed y Albert Einstein. This states that "one accelerates closer to the speed of light, one’s mass increases" -http://blog.al.com/entertainment-times/2010/06/star_wars_in_the_rocket_city_i_2.html. So that it can never reach the speed of light since its mass becomes inifinte so will the energy required to reach that speed. Only light and something that has no mass can reach that speed. Physicians say that even if something were to reach that speed the rockeeters would turn to mush. Then they start explaining how hyperspace drive would work which is from what I understand getting to one of two dimmensions quickly, they would sort of fold this space fabric to get you closer to your destination.
