The success of Failure as a Learning Mode relies on the school’s administration providing teachers and students a strong and supportive, learning management system. The best form of learning management system would provide access and information to all stakeholders: administration, teachers, parents, and students. The learning management platform would be the easiest way for teachers to provide feedback and for students to receive it, review it, make corrections, and learn from failure. For a student to really learn from failure, the platform would show their learning progression. Currently, the management system that we have described, does not exist in this entirety but there are many different platforms educators are using today to provide their students with an excellent environment for Failure as a Learning Mode.

Platform Programs:

Feedback Programs:

Not only should schools give students expectations for success, they should give expectations for failure. Administration and teachers need to be building a scheduled time within the school day and unit/lesson plan to allow students time to fix their “failures” from the feedback given.

Finally, for failure as a learning mode to have any chance of success, administration needs to provide the teachers with time, proper resources, training, and trust in teachers and their failures in their own application of implementing Failure as a Learning Mode.
