Things I'm Working On:

• A total reboot of public education as we know it, conceptualized at All New Public Education, where I propose a 21st Century system based on these objectives:

  1. Extend education throughout life. Make it a part of our daily lives and have it begin with birth and end soon after death.

  2. Take education out of centralized buildings (schools) and make it the responsibility of the family, community, nation, and the world.

  3. Leverage technology to enable everyone to have access to the same resources.

Ideas for Further Collaboration (add here):

• Change on such an order that we need to truly redirect public education from the top down. This is sweeping cultural, societal and economic change we are talking about. That has to be developed at the most strategic level, and then reverse engineered down to how a newly conceived fetus will be registered into the system and its parents will be enrolled for parenting classes.
• I see the Obama Administration convening a plenum of representatives from all nations and charging them to create a strategy such as the one I have detailed on ANPE > Solutions and that charter for a whole new concept of education being agreed to as a world of nations of people.
