“…you shall above all things be glad and  young
For if you’re glad and young,
whatever life you wear it will become you;
and if you are glad whatever’s living
will yourself become…”

    Innovation – Standardization – Commoditization run along a continuum.  Today we unpack some of the ideas that hasten (and prohibit) leading practice discovery; how quickly goods and services become a “human right”; why all of this is relevant to education communities and why some believe that commoditization is a myth.

    From the Wikipedia

    In business literature, commoditization is defined as the process by which goods that have economic value and are distinguishable in terms of attributes (uniqueness or brand) end up becoming simple commodities in the eyes of the market or consumers. It is the movement of a market from differentiated to undifferentiated price competition and from monopolistic competition to perfect competition. Hence, the key effect of commoditization is that the pricing power of the manufacturer or brand owner is weakened: when products become more similar from a buyer’s point of view, they will tend to buy the cheapest.

    The Elevator Consultants: Standards

    Many education communities have 100’s of elevators and escalators.   This is a difficult space for driving costs down

    (because of strong manufacturer and labor presence) but we will give the “old college try”

    Paraskevidekatriaphobia Mathematics

    All day
    2024.12.13

    The formal Latin name for the fear of Friday the 13th is “paraskevidekatriaphobia.” This term combines the Greek words “Paraskeví” (meaning Friday) and “dekatreís” (meaning thirteen), with “phobia” (meaning fear).

    Etymology:

    • Paraskeví (Παρασκευή): Greek word for Friday.
    • Dekatreís (δεκατρείς): Greek word for thirteen.
    • Phobia (φοβία): Greek word for fear.

    This term was coined to describe the specific fear of this particular date, which is considered unlucky in various cultures. An alternative term sometimes used is “friggatriskaidekaphobia,” which incorporates “Frigg,” the Norse goddess for whom Friday is named.

    For more detailed information, you can refer to the sources discussing the psychological and cultural aspects of this phobia:
