re: charter schools – finally mentioning improving the system so it provides a quality education at a lower cost. "It's the ideal." Yes. #EmergingSchools24

is there any community forum for #EmergingSchools24?

The clock is ticking. The climate crisis looms, making the need for education's transformative power more urgent than ever. We need to act now, harness education, and ignite change for a sustainable, just world.

Education is not just a right like other rights —it is at the heart of all societal benefits, individual empowerment, and the realization of other rights.

In a world teetering on the brink, education is our lifeline. It's the heart of our survival, prosperity, and economic resurgence. An educated, skilled populace isn't a luxury—it's the foundation of a society poised to weather any storm, sparking economic and cultural dynamism.

Reading is how you acquire new knowledge. Reading is how you expand your worldview. Reading is how you spot new opportunities. Reading is how you train your focus. Reading is how you absorb 10 years of experience in 8 hours. When you're bored, pick up a book, not your phone.

I think the future of education is fairly straightforward. It's online learning coupled with in-person spaces, experiences, and community.

We need to stop thinking about traditional school as a public school, and start thinking about it as a product. Students and parents are customers. They need to judge the quality of the product being delivered accordingly.

Everyone gets up in arms about child labor. But how is forcing kids to sit at fluorescent-lit desks for 7 hours a day doing paperwork not child labor? It’s the 21st century version of indentured servitude for kids, and it’s sold to us “for your own good.”

10 FREE websites for readers that are so valuable they feel illegal to know:

Current education system is outdated + too slow to pivot without major industry competition. No other option How kids consume content in their free time is so disconnected from how they consume content at school They can learn a lot online, but need curation across interests

Invest in education. It has to be next up We’re approaching a breaking point with info overload. Curators are of dire need… & who are the OGs? Teachers, journalists, etc It’s the time for next gen curators/creators to start building next level curriculum & eventually, systems

@FamilyofP @AlexAndBooks_ Maybe they’d like to join our experimental learning community

@AlexAndBooks_ I read "Average is Over" By Tyler Cowen and then I read "Klara and the Sun" by Kazuo Ishiguro and I'll never be the same. I am now on a journey to find alt educational opportunities for my teen. Traditional public school has failed to keep up and I don't want his future to suffer

What book changed your life (and how)?
