Chaos Pedagogy Taste
The ACT Model consists of five active layers, where each layer is a pedagogy that can be applied in the classroom. In this section we will consider the top layer of the ACT model - the Chaos pedagogy.
In this section we will explore the exciting pedagogy of chaos. We live in a world where students are constantly faced with making sense of the information overload they're faced with. This information is often conflicting, has missing elements, has too much content, etc. Learning to make sense of this is not only a powerful pedagogy but a vital skill to develop in our modern world.

Reflection
Chaos is in many ways the hardest of all the pedagogies, however it is one of the most important as we learn to navigate a world with too much content, conflicting content, missing content, etc. Preparing our students to see meaning in mess, to find patterns in noise, and sense in confusion is very important.
