In a rapidly changing global reality, how can it continue to be adequate to educate 21st century learners by utilizing 19th and 20th century methods and expectations? Children sitting in the classrooms of American schools today face the prospect of inheriting a wildly complex world. They will need to rely on a diverse set of skills to successfully navigate this new century. Why does the education they currently receive largely ignore these skills? Children arrive at school with unbridled curiosity and amazing creative potential. Why does the educational system diminish, if not deprive, the development of these traits; traits that experts suggest are more important today than ever before? How can we expect students to persist in an educational system that feels out of touch and irrelevant to their personal interests and aspirations? These are the foundational questions explored in The Education Kids Deserve. Parents, teachers, local school boards, building principals, state education officials - all have a shared and equal opportunity, and a moral obligation, to consider these questions and to actively determine the critical outcome of this exercise; a decision of whether we will afford our children the education they should expect and are entitled to. Based on a thirty-five year career as a teacher and local school administrator, this author outlines what must, and can, be done to assure that all children experience the education they require. The strategies outlined are beautiful in their simplicity and their degree of accessibility. This educational revolution does not require an infusion of funds. It requires a revitalized definition of that we expect of student graduates. Further, it mandates a redefinition of the very craft of teaching for learning in contemporary classrooms to assure the promise of a truly relevant educational experience for all kids. Will today's students have the skills and habits of mind to be reflective, thoughtful, empathetic, and collaborative in their efforts to be productive and successful in a complex geo-political context? Anyone with an interest in the education of today's students as the leaders of tomorrow's world needs to engage in this dialogue. Please download or purchase The Education Kids Deserve to gain the insight of practical experience and the visionary perspective of where we could, and must, be in assuring The Education Kids Deserve.
