ADVANCE Innovative Education school design session
One of my favorite activities is spending time with smart people thinking about new schools. Â ADVANCE innovative Education, a provider of alternative certification programs in Louisiana, held a design session today with a great group. Â The assignment was to design a STEM school and a media arts school. Â Sponsors hope that many of the grads will attend LSU and help build the next gen economy in southern Louisiana. Â Imagine the next High Tech High–a diverse, tech infused, application rich, college connected learning environment housed in a museum.
We’re at a transitional period of time where it’s almost possible to deliver (or at least think about delivering) radically personalized learning.  We saw a demo of a new higher ed platform that makes it easy to string together a course based on a rock star ‘play list’ of video administered by a proctor all delivered on a social learning platform. We ended up recommending a blend of project based learning and personalized online learning–a better cheaper way to do long day/long year/community-connected learning.
Good teachers change lives. Â Good schools change communities. Â AIE will enrich Baton Rouge with two great new schools.
