Grateful for this inside scoop and for the script flip. Especially love #s 2 & 5. Thank you for being part of and sharing this conversation.

I’ve been feeling #5 a lot - wondering about the last time many of us have set foot in a classroom (besides our child’s), actually listened to a teacher or student share their daily experiences - and our proclivity to have opinions about how things ought to be without really feeling and understanding how they are.

Yes, definitely, to all 10, but particularly the first 4. Relationships are key at all stages and all levels of learning. Technology is a tool as well as an asset. Philanthropists and social entreprneurs need to realize that improving education - formal (mass) learning - is just hard work and takes lots of time. The latest shiny thing and quick results are not related to reality. It's all about people.
