The purpose of this book is to articulate an aspirational vision
for education, one that deeply engages students in complex and
meaningful work and prepares students for the personal, social, and
societal problems and opportunities facing them and our society.
However, simply adopting an aspirational vision for a high quality
learning environment isn't the real challenge. Most educators,
students, and parents don't need a lot of convincing that schools
can and should do more. Many educators espouse ambitious goals for
their students, articulating the need for "21st century skills,"
and classrooms that are more innovative, responsive, and
collaborative. However, so many of our classrooms fall woefully
short of these goals. That's because knowing the why and the what
is sometimes not enough. Teachers need help with the how.
Accordingly, this book does not stop at simply articulating a
vision of the possible; the book also helps individuals visualize
what it can look like, and supports teachers, parents, and other
engaged community members as they work towards closing the gap
between what is possible and what is currently realized.
