"The heart of really transforming education is in transforming student task. If we are not profoundly changing the things our kids get to do and experience in the process of learning, we aren’t really changing anything.
Our tasks must be grounded in high expectations, but they must also give students the chance to practice vital skills and concepts beyond just acquiring facts, which are easy to come by in the age of Google. Content is important, but what is more important is what a student can do with that content in a changing world and how they use both knowledge and skills in pursuit of their individual passion. "
