What could K-12 education look like if we let go of our assumptions about what school is supposed to be and instead focused exclusively on designing learning experiences around what's best for kids? In this episode of BRIGHT, we chat with Dr. Dave Richards, an executive learning strategist for Michigan Virtual, former superintendent of Fraser Public Schools, and one of the founding members of the Future of Learning Council. Dave shares a personal story of how school transformed his life as someone born into extreme poverty, articulates a vision for what learning can be at its finest, and offers three strategies for reinventing learning in your school community.
