Rethinking Education

Learning and the New Renaissance

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This publication represents the first of a series of books that will profile some of the forward thinking work being undertaken by leading education researchers and policy experts focused on transforming the face of public education and the future of Alberta. The Co-creating a Learning Alberta book series is a partnership with leading public policy thinkers and the Alberta Teachers' Association that flows from the public lecture series called "Learning our Way to the Next Alberta." Since its inception in 2004, this lecture series has drawn over 5,000 participants and continues to push our thinking about the hopes and possibilities for the future of this province and is profiled at www.learningourway.ca. In these public lectures, three questions have come to dominate the conversations about the future of the Alberta: What is the Alberta that the world needs to see? What kind of Albertans do we need to become to get us there? and How will leadership in learning help us become our best selves?

Autorenporträt

In this work, we are helped by the work of our colleagues and students over the last fifty years of teaching, consulting, writing, and researching. Many of them have been an inspiration and some showed real courage in starting to pursue their learning dreams in their later years. My oldest student began his degree at age 79 and finished at age 83. He went on to complete his master's degree on his 90th birthday. I teach so as to learn.
