Ulcca Joshi Hansen

4.9/5 (27584 ratings)

Description:Our best efforts at improving education have failed to improve the lives of children, or change society for the better. This is no the current system ignores our deepest knowledge about how human beings thrive. Being “smart” today is still about sorting kids based on how well they absorb and retain knowledge. We need education to reflect a different set of interdependence, community, diversity, and deep, dynamic learning. We need it to align with human development, facilitate learning for different kinds of brains, and prepare young people for a changing society and evolving workplace. Blending history and science with stories from inside, The Future of Smart is a must read for anyone concerned about the future of education. A passionate advocate for transformation in our education system, Dr. Ulcca Hansen explains the disconnect between what we want for our children, and what education today provides. Dr. Hansen is Chief Program Officer at Grantmakers for Education and has worked in the education field for two decades. Her personal experiences as an English-language learner and first-generation college student inform her perspective on what it means to provide an “equitable” education for every child and meaningfully engage communities in that effort. The Future of Smart shows how we can build an education system to nurture the unique, human capabilities of each child, and lay the groundwork for a more equitable, just and humane future.Best Indie Book Award WinnerEric Hoffer Book Award Category FinalistEric Hoffer Book Award Montaigne Medal Finalist for most thought provoking readIPPY Gold Medal Winner (Independent Publisher Book Awards)National Indie Excellence Awards WinnerWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
