Ed Zed Omega - Reimagining Education

This public media "authentic fiction" sought to crowdsource perspectives about education today. The Zed Omega teens, played by actors, "dropped out loud" from high school -- catalyzing open discussion about the structures and purpose of traditional education and its alternatives. The arc of each Zed Omega character was unscripted: they responded to ideas that people presented. The collaborative thought experiment and "interactive documentary" was live on social media during fall semester 2012. (-Learn more-) (-Credits-) (-Facebook-) (-Twitter-)

If you got to design your own school what would it be like? 
Hey Guys, I’ve been following you on Twitter and interacting a little bit there with whoever is running @EdZedOmega.  
Here’s my question/challenge for all of you: Tell me about your “dream education.” If you guys got to design your own school (or “unschool” maybe?) what would it be like? I’d be interested in hearing your individual responses. Thanks!
