Adventures in Learning

A blog about Learning, about Education, about reform, about change, about what it means to teach. I am trying to ask the question "Why we educate" and what my answer means to me as a teacher and how my role shapes society and the whole.

A Quick Snapshot of the Education City

The Education City is a model that helps revamp the city by using education as a lever for change.

It focuses on adjusting the education system to the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century. It provides each and every child with the opportunity to excel in what they are good at by enlisting the strengths and opportunities of the community.

By involving the city´s resources and not only the schools’, an Education City makes learning the business of the entire community. In an Education City, the mayor leads an effort to create citywide partnerships that expand learning opportunities for all. Youth have many more opportunities from which to choose and thus better opportunities to excel in something. The enlisting of the city, with all its resources and opportunities, can create a new education system that is more relevant to better prepare the youth for our rapidly changing world, and eventually help to further develop the city towards a thriving, sustainable, and competitive economy.
