=='''Author and Conceptual Explanations'''==

I’m the author of the [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Papillon “Papillon” educational concept] and creator of the [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Online_Schoolbook_%22GOLD_DUST%22 online schoolbook "GOLD DUST"]. Based on the idea of writing a childrens book a study project
developed. Thirst for knowledge and interest in topics taken from literature, history, philosophy, art and religion as well as openness for science, environmental topics and new media have influenced the development of the Online Schoolbook GOLD DUST.

This project is the result of many years development work. It includes:

Since 2007 Papillon participates in the educational project “One Laptop per Child". --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 22:03, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

My native language is German. Please feel free to correct my English and give me your feedback and comments. I’m happy to answer your questions.

Now I want to introduce "Papillon" and present what is possible with this emotional and simply concept.
Here are some hints and thoughts, to explore the Online Schoolbook GOLD DUST - a new system of education on the basis of ancient wisdom and modern research. Try it out and invite curiosity and hunger for knowledge in the classroom. Conditions of Use:[http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0]

By using the Papillon concept learners get a mix from structur (text of the virtual world) and freedom (Internet).

'''Why imparting knowledge through narration?'''

The answer lies in the way the brain works: we remember things better when more than one sense is involved. That is particularly true when it comes to stories rather than simple informational documents. What has no emotional coloring is easily forgotten. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 16:06, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Children love stories. This makes knowledge transfer as simple and effective. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 18:58, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

'''Why very distantly related links?'''

Analog view of a topic does not encourage thinking in contexts. Making thought more flexible also helps one to get closer to the solution of a problem. A wide, cross-subject education and cross-border thinking challenges children to ask questions, show curiosity and to change their perspectives. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 11:16, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

If someone is not interested in a topic, he will find it difficult to learn. Papillon therefore arouses curiosity in interesting cross-curricular themes and opens the door to the internet. Behind every door students can find a surprise, against one's expectations. Surprise is a positive emotion. Neuroscientists are of the opinion that positive emotions support the learning process. An information may be better absorbed, noticed and be reproduced. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 20:55, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

'''The learning clicks represent a unique and innovative form of conveying knowledge.''' They are the result of an intensive combined achievement.
Text and learning clicks are so tightly interwoven so that both elements can develop their effect as just one unit. However, the goal is not to link the text in general but rather how the text is linked. That is what is special about it.
Links without the text don't work in such great manner we have learned in our praxis tests. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 16:06, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

The teacher uses the links specifically for knowledge transfer. He determines the kind of content, standards of education or skills that should be transported. The teacher's role is changing. He gives the direction and orientation, while the Internet is the classroom and the student works independently.
Later Students find their own favorite themes, discover them with links, create their own knowledge planets and add they to the story.

Learning clicks are variable and can be adapted to the age group. Younger students approaching the subject playful. Older students work with demanding sources of outstanding quality.--[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 13:16, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

'''We must ask ourselves: what should our children learn and what values we want to give them. Topics close to society's heart. Therfore all keywords and educational links are variable and suggestions and are subject to constant change.'''
--[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 19:46, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

'''Internet literacy'''

is impossible without a minimum level of personal experience in dealing with the technology. Where young people can acquire these skills? A fortuitous result of activities in their leisure time, or all systematically in school? Although we live in a media society no one explains children how to deal appropriately with the media.
Through the support of the teacher, the children learn to distinguish important from the unimportant, genuine from spurious.
And what about information overload? My suggestion, learn how to google.
It makes a difference what keywords I type in the search engine, in order to achieve the best result. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 14:51, 12 January 2010 (UTC)


=='''General'''==

'''Education Level: K-12'''

*Learning with imagination [http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/education/article5769235.ece] and time to deepen a topic in a digital self-learnig method. Getting into Einstein's brain [http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1200/is_v127/ai_3784781/] --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 19:26, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

*The preoccupation with the key words (the penetration at the depth central themes) pays for itself in an acceleration of apprehension, and not only during school but for the entire life.--[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 17:19, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

*Particularly suitable for team- and project work. The role of the teacher is being transformed. He is providing the direction and ensures the point of reference while the Internet becomes the learning space and the student can work independently. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 20:06, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

*Due to the switch between digital and traditional work methods, the productive capacity to reflect and the joy the students experience from experimentation as well as the ability to critically assess the media are stimulated and promoted. Unique learning success becomes possible in this sense by combining technical affinity and the desire to read.
Concepts which combine what is information with creative methods of thinking and working boost the attention and motivation of the students and open up new ways from the to express themselves and create.
The fairytale establishes the self-imposed delay between the onset of desire and its eventual fulfilment which can be increased through interaction. The desire for learning is awakened.

===Keyword : '''earth'''===
How to discover "earth" cross-disciplinary?
Begin the topics as often as you can with emotional images (you tube). So you immediately arouse interest and curiosity. After that imparting knowledge about the links.
Let the students look on the subject from different perspectives, as an island that they round.

A wide, cross-subject education and cross-border thinking challenges children to ask questions, show curiosity and to change their perspectives. "Children must be given the opportunity to view a certain aspect from different perspectives. This is how they learn the same content in all of its complexity and learn in the process that different perspectives can result in different assessments.

===Keyword: '''listlessly like a wilting leaf'''===

Introduce new interdisciplinary areas and foster dialogue with science: Chronobiology [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronobiology]
"Chrono" pertains to time and "biology" pertains to the study, or science, of life.


=='''Chapter 2: [http://www.pio-pio.de/html/2.The%20Gold%20Hat%20Officials.htm The Gold Hat Officials]'''==

===Keyword '''Nubia'''===

Nubia was always important for Egypt, because from Nubia came the gold.

'''There is more behind the links than people expect, meaning that the effect of the Internet to amaze and astound can be used for learning success.''' The learner is surprised that even the most comical ideas from the fantasy story can find an equivalent in reality.

For example: Nubia is not only a fantastic name, Nubia was an ancient high culture

===Keyword: the official for good thoughts===

Theme: '''how one comes to good thoughts...'''
...when you emulate successful people, if you take part, when you are interested in science, if you ask why, when you play, when you help, if you are curious in new media, when you hear music, when you leran languages and so on...

===Keyword: time===

Theme: '''The Theory of Relativity'''

'''The student can view the content and continue to access it until he has completely understood the topic.''' This method of conveying knowledge is not feasible in regular instruction and has a decisive advantage: Gifted students no longer have to be bored because they understood the material long ago and those who are less gifted no longer have a reason to interrupt the class because they are not following the material. Everyone can process the instructional materials according to his or her own aptitude. '''Strong and weak students will be promoted together.'''

===Keyword: '''towers'''===

Dynamic Architecture: Rotating Tower

The boundries of architecture are new defined: Buildings are now able to change their shape and be part of environment.

===Keyword: '''place in life'''===

You've got to find what you love, that's the question of
your life.--[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 19:28, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Examples: Links from the fairytale refer to the selection of a career, on how to get good ideas. Those in later semesters can be guided from fairytale to the theory of relativity, evolution, nanotechnology and ethics. Complex learning content is shown on web pages in a simple and easy-to-follow manner in a film or in an interaction. That is the great advantage of the Internet compared to the static imparting of knowledge --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 18:14, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

The work of modern researchers create the grandiose knowledge of tomorrow. For example: Chewang Norphel. He has found a way to create artificial glaciers.
If they melt in the summer, Norphels artificial glaciers supply the farmers with life-giving water. In dry regions ice is worth a fortune. [http://www.pluggd.in/chewang-norphel-ladakh-glacier-man-297/]

===Keyword: '''I don't know what I want'''===

On you tube are many useful things to find. One can learn dance, sing, draw or play an instrument. Perhaps someone is interested in learning languages or math. All for free.

===Keyword: '''baroque'''===
Baroque is also known as the era of stage and finds his glorious climax at the court of Louis XIV.
Elements of staging we find in the Media-Society of the 21st Century, for example election campaign, product advertising,
fashion,Harry Potter as a brand, etc.
Why not education to stage? --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 19:06, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

To arouse interest in a subject, I suggest starting with a video. The student is emotionally addressed, his attention is aroused. After this are the facts and at the end stands the presentation of the choosen topic by students.--[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 18:06, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

Fairytales convey a simple basic thought: A good character makes you beautiful. It is exactly the right format to spin a yarn about the great questions of life. Let you inspire by the magical world of the GOLD DUST story. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 10:40, 9 January 2009 (UTC)


=='''Chapter 10: [http://www.pio-pio.de/html/10.Energy%20Spheres.htm Energy Spheres]'''==

===Keyword: '''Swan'''===

This story you could tell the students about Susan Boyle, the black swan:[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxPZh4AnWyk]

Once upon a time a poor girl, who lived in a filthy house and everybody called her only "Susan Simple".
But Susan had had a big dream and one day, when a half of her life already passed away, she got a chance. Bravely she stepped on stage and courageous she showed the world her best side. Then a wonder happened: from the black swan was a shining snow-white Swan, because Susan had a talent.
You too have a talent. Discover it. If you have found it, tell us, how did you figure it out.
There are numerous suggestions and inspirations on the various themes in this book. With any luck, someone will find his passion, a vocation or profession. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 19:05, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

===Keyword: '''Gold Dust'''===

GOLD Dust reflects our dreams, desires and hopes, our yearning and virtues, our good side. Gold Dust is irreplaceable, because it is the gold in us.
What is really important for each of us and as valuable as gold dust? For example: every child needs a family and wants to be loved, go to school, live without fear, to be happy, in life find what everyone is looking... That would be a great topic for an essay.

What are the children's wishes for themselves, their families and friends, for their country, the world and the future?
(no wars, feed the hungry, save the animals, protect the environment... be kind to each other, find love and friendship)

Religion is one of the most emotional and powerful topics.
We gave students the suggestion to present each other their religion.
We also encouraged them, together to celebrate religious events [http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk/Homework/religion/calendar.htm]and visit religious monuments: synagogue, church, mosque or temple. So students learn more about their neighbours religions, their similarities and to accept differences. They also have a better overview of the religions. With the understanding of other religions they are able to communicate better.
Children must be given the opportunity to view a certain aspect from different perspectives. So they can see one aspect with different eyes and improve respect and tolerance.--[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 13:36, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

==='''Keyword: Lying, Cheating, Stealing'''===

Theme: Moral and ethical standards

Teachers told me that children can no longer distinguish between good and evil. Thus arose the idea to set a focus on this issue and to bring it into the public perception.

Sensational I find in this context the scientific evidence from Dan Ariely[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Ariely#cite_note-1] Professor, Duke/MIT that the mere thought of a moral authority promotes honesty[http://bigthink.com/ideas/2030].

Some ideas to deepen the topic:

Encouraing kids to do right thing:
Use books
'Read stories, particularly fairy tales, which tend to have moral messages,' says Dark, who works for Lyn Fry Associates, a consultancy that runs positive parenting courses.[http://ukfamily.co.uk/community/adviceopedia/you-and-your-family/your-child/right-and-wrong.html]

Therefore the GOLD DUST story is an important and valuable part of the project. Fairytales convey to us a magical world through which the children can easily distinguish between the rules and rituals of reality, good and evil. They are an appropriate means of evoking fantasy and creativity and thereby promote the moral and social competence to make judgments.

You may think that the concept of deadly sins is a religious one and do not apply to you, but you may call them negative tendencies if you want. The fact is that you can find them in more or less intensity within most people. The root of most of our economical, political, cultural and personal problems lies in in universal principles, such as pride, anger, greed, envy.. To find recent examples is a good excercise, to recognize the destructive power.

==='''Keyword: IRA - Anger'''===

Anger is a burning sensation, who is guided by anger, easily exceed a dangerous threshold. Raw violence and cold-blooded murder are the rusult. In the violent temper friendships are broken, people killed,[http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/3569581.stm] attacks perpetrated.

==='''Keyword: be free'''===

Freedom as valuable as gold dust..

What would you do if you are imprisoned in your own country? Would you risk your life to cross the "death strip" - the Wall - ? Million tears were shed because of the wall. Couples have lost each other, children lost their parents, parents lost their children and many lost their lives. Families were divided. A country was divided. How many dreams could not be dreamed and no hope that something will change.
But the unbelievable happened. During these weeks 20 years ago the people voted with their feets. Thousands of young families left the country. And then came the wonder of Berlin. On November 9th, 1989 the Berlin Wall falls. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_eCVhCGYwE&feature=related]
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin_Wall] On this day disappears dividing line between East and West, between dictatorship and freedom. What a gift for our families, for Berlin, our country and the world. The freedom is to pay with nothing and we will never take the freedom for granted. --[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 21:07, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

It is a common understanding of freedom in responsibility."[...]--[[User:Papillon|Papillon]] 13:40, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Without values, the rule of law and accountability no dominion endures. Enforce the rules even in complex societies, in order to stabilize countries and protect against unrest and corruption.

'''On November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall came down. The border that for decades had divided a nation into two worlds was now open.'''

Today many Germans say, it was not all bad in the former GDR.
And they think about the free childcare. But most was not good. They seem to have forgotten: no freedom of opinion, no freedom of trade, no freedom of travel, no freedom of assembly, no free elections, some parents were forced into adoptions, no free development of personality, job prospects were limited.... at the end the state was broke. The wall has generated hate and desire for freedom.
What do students know about the difference between dictatorship and democracy? Freedom and democracy are values for all of us.

=='''Summary'''==

By applying the Papillon method on this text of universal validity be treated in 33 Articles 124 topics (in the form of keywords) and via 752 educational links cross-curricular, emotional and in a vivid and understandable way imparted. (The data are subject to constant change.) That means more content, more context and more fun.

Ulrike Hammer, Teacher, Herr Drinkewitz, Teacher, Luise- und- Wilhelm-Teske Grammar School, Berlin-Schöneberg [http://www.teske-oberschule.de/aktivi/projekte.htm] have recognized the advantage of Papillon Method and expressed as follows:

“The students enjoyed it. The history teacher, Mr. Drinkewitz, was also quite enthusiastic. He meant that it's amazing how many educational content in such a short time the students have collected, remembered and edited. He does not reach with its (conventional) method. I can only confirm."

=='''Testing the model project successfull in practice'''==

Since February 2005, the model project “Papillon“ [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhchdHJAazA] has been successfully tested at the Ellen-Key Grammar School in Berlin[http://www.eko-online.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=90&Itemid=229] and is applied continuously.

Here are some voices:

How does that concept differ from other regular methods?
“Students who use the “Papillon” method learn more selfresponsible, more motivated and focused as others. They often forget to disturb the classes because they pay attention to what is happening in class. Their fantasy, their interest is attrected and sometimes I was no able to calm them down in their fantasy.”
Miss Günther, teacher and project leader, Berlin, Germany

Is there any measurable success?
“The measurable success lies in the fact that most of the students of these courses improved. In some cases it will show up in the diploma.
I can say: It was a lot of fun for the students and for myself and I wish to see more often such kind of teaching.”
Miss Günther

Students report why they like the “GOLD DUST” adventure so much, how it becomes an online book and by that an experience.

“It continuesly contains exciting things that make you continue reading, because you want to know for sure what happens.”

“Not so old-fashioned and boring but gripping and funny and all in one.”

“The classes are much more relaxed and reflect a total different atmosphere then just sitting in class, the book infront of you and reading.”

“We use to look up what is mentioned in the book, for example Ozelot, the Ozelot was mentioned and one asks, Ozelot, what is Ozelot and then one looks it up in the internet where you have the possibility to search for it and then you look up google and there you find something about it and I like it, that there is this connection to the book. I think that kind of connection to the book is good.”

The students agree that the concept works.

==Mission==

My mission is to inspire and to fire the imagination.

Einstein once said: “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”

==Vision==

Of this I have always dreamed: from "living books". Meanwhile, there are the technical tools to create those kinds of books and there are the creativity and the spirit of the community, which sometimes makes dreams come true. [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Einstein.school wiki]
