“Novel and revolutionary, this book is a much-needed wake-up call for imaginatively rethinking what education needs to become in this complex, networked, and radically contingent world.” 

—From the Foreword by John Seely Brown, visiting scholar and advisor to the provost, University of Southern California

Praise for the book:

 “Every book club, city council, school board, parent group, and teacher research network should dedicate time toward reading this book. “ 

—Shirley Brice Heath, professor emerita of English and linguistics, Stanford University

“What are the powerful ideas that will allow students to live lives of meaning and fulfillment? This book helps us imagine what this kind of education would look like.” 

—Janet Kolodner, chief learning scientist, Concord Consortium, and professor emerita of Computer Science, Georgia Tech

“Collins’ manifesto launches the comprehensive conversation we need on the future of learning.” 

—Roy Pea, David Jacks Professor of Education and Learning Sciences, Stanford University
