“college-ready factories” Traditional schools (lecture, reading from text, prepping for next test) Enhanced traditional schools (AP, IB, STEM, & so forth) Ladder-up schools (extended hours, PST partnerships, extracurriculars) “Are we really just teaching our students how to game the system?” Can the system accommodate the “one-off” kid (ADHD, Asperger’s, anxiety)?

ORAL WORLD
Learning was experienced through dialogue, discovery, mentorship, and apprenticeship. BC - 1650
PRINTED WORD & INDIVIDUAL LEARNING
Print separated the message from the messenger. It locks ideas on to a page and freezes time. It was one of the most prolific periods of innovation in human history. 1650 - 1955

SOCIAL-MOBILE & PERSONALIZED LEARNING
All of the digital connected learning experience, but with increase capability to personalize your experience within a global network. 2015 -
