11. Berman, 1986; Griffin, 1988; Gablik, 1991. There are others who write
about reenchantment of the world and of science. Among them Ken Wilber,
1998; Isabelle Stengers and Illia Prigogine, in Stengers, 1997.
12. Gablik, 1991: 164.
13. I write re-enchantment rather than reenchantment to indicate that currently,
we are simply changing the direction of our enchantment. Many authors
refer to the so-called modern epoch as time of disenchantment. In We Have
Never Been Modern, Bruno Latour (1995) argued that we have never been
modern since we have never been truly disenchanted. Modernity is rather
enchantment with disenchantment. It is enchantment with possibilities
to separate nature from culture and to reduce the whole world out-there
to manageable fragmented pieces.

16. Gablik, 1991: 164. The different awareness Gablik refers to is the
holistic awareness of being deeply unified with the rest of the world.

18. Whitehead cited in Griffin, 1993:166.
19. Johnna Haskell conceptualizes a freefall pedagogy as a space of open
possibilities and radical transformations. In Haskell, 2000.
20. Minutes of teaching mechanistic science is my story of teaching physical
chemistry in the community college. At that time, the mechanistic science
was the only science I knew.
21. I taught this course for three successive years. Days of the Physical
Science in Elementary Schools Course (a soap opera), that reappears throughout
the entire manuscript, is the story of my attempts to apply my emerging
visions into pedagogical practice.
22. I organized this club with the purpose of exploring possibilities for
informal teaching and learning re-enchanted science. The science video
club gave me a priceless opportunity to be connected with young people
not as a teacher or researcher, but as one of them.

of the world was the earth in the center of the universe.
