The Future of Secondary Education by Patricia R. Williams https://padlet.com/prw35/key3ayt8jwkyohff In a world shaped by environmental and biological challenges, we are faced with looking at the future of a "safe" education for our students. We are brought back to the thought that there is no "one size fits all" education or educational space. The future of education is individualized, technology driven, community supported and flexible like never before. Our vision focuses on a multi-disciplinary, project based education that emphasizes real world experiences and creativity that prepares ALL students to be successful in their post secondary endeavors.
