Using Music to Teach Critical Thinking
A black and white image of Woody Guthrie performing with a harmonica hanging and playing the guitar. The guitar has writing on it. Three kids are next to him watching him perform. There are green polka dots scattered over the image.
We all know music is powerful—we’ve felt it. Yet, somewhere along the way, music lost its standing as a force for learning, reduced to an elective in schools and a commodity in the industry. But music has always been more than sound. It has carried history, sparked revolutions, and held up mirrors to society. What happens when we stop treating it as just entertainment and start engaging with it as a way of thinking? Let’s reclaim music as a tool for learning, for questioning, for expanding how we see the world.

We Should Learn Through Art Whenever Possible (... It Always Is)
We Should Learn Through Art Whenever Possible (... It Always Is)
Art is the first way we learn—through drawing, music, movement, and storytelling. But as education becomes more “serious,” art is often sidelined as a luxury rather than a powerful tool for understanding the world. What if we never let it go? What if art was integrated into math, science, history, and more, making learning deeper, richer, and more human?

Genius... Yes, We All Have Genius
Genius... Yes, We All Have Genius
What if being a genius wasn’t about towering IQs or flawless achievements? What if it was about creativity, curiosity, and the determination to keep going — even when you fail spectacularly? At the Super Genius Society, we’re defining what genius means to us with a little help from Wile E. Coyote. Because genius isn’t just for an elite few, it’s for everyone born with a radical imagination and the persistence to try, try again.

We Fail, We Doubt, We Think, We Feel, We Change… So, Are We?
A circular portrait of Descartes at 3/4 angle wearing a dark top with an oversized white collar, Scribble snake sock puppet is to the left and both the puppet and Descartes are looking directly at the viewer
What makes us real? Is it the mind, the body, or something else entirely? Since Descartes declared  Cogito Ergo Sum, “I think, therefore I am,” the question of existence has sparked centuries of debate. But is thinking alone enough? Rousseau argued that feeling defines us, Heidegger believed death gives us meaning, and Damasio showed that emotion shapes thought itself. The Cogito is no longer just a philosophical thought experiment—it’s a challenge to how we define reality itself.

A Brief History of Education: Where it Led Us, and Now What?!
A Brief History of Education: Where it Led Us, and Now What?!
Education wasn’t always about standardized tests and factory-model schooling. From Egypt’s elite scribes to Confucius’s belief in lifelong learning, the purpose of education has shifted dramatically over centuries. The Aztecs pioneered universal schooling, the Greeks tied education to philosophy, and John Amos Comenius championed equal access. But by the 19th century, the industrial model took over—shaping obedient citizens rather than independent thinkers. How did we get here? And more importantly, where do we go from here? From the Prussian roots of mass schooling to Horace Mann’s reforms and Frederick Taylor’s efficiency-obsessed standardization, this post uncovers how education became a system of control rather than liberation. But change is always possible. Thinkers like Paulo Freire, Ken Robinson, and John Taylor Gatto challenge us to break free from outdated structures and rethink learning as an act of creativity, curiosity, and defiance. What if education wasn’t about compliance but about expanding minds? Read on to discover the history they never taught you in school—and why reimagining education is the most radical act of all.
