The authors focus on the future of learning, requiring bold educational leadership as well as a dramatic redefinition of what it means to be a successful student today. The following are addressed:
· Concrete guidance on how to create a Portrait of a Graduate and a Portrait of an Educator, which will help ensure teachers have a unified vision for student success and professional growth
· Compelling examples of students already engaged in creative, self-directed problem solving around issues that matter to them and their communities, together with stories that illustrate how districts and schools have arrived at their own vision of what education must become
