Created by Meredith Goddard for Design Week Portland There are incredible opportunities for learning, making and skill development beyond grades, walls, and online learning. Let's make sure the skills that are sought by employers in the future are taught in classrooms today. Let's make sure that the incentive systems used in schools reflect incentive systems in the business world. Most of all, let's liberate students from the confines of our own educational experiences so that they experience a richer, skill-based, authentic, open, and collaborative learning environment.
