“If you can crack the problem of engagement – not just ‘are you paying attention?’, but ‘are you fascinated by this?’ – if you can crack engagement in deep learning then you’ve cracked 21st century schooling.” Mike Berrill Executive Principal, Biddenham International School

April 25, 2014 Dear Kindergarten Parents and Guardians, We hope this letter serves to help you better understand how the demands of the 21st century are changing schools, and, more speciﬁcally, to clarify, misperceptions about the Kindergarten show…. Although the movement toward more rigorous learning standards has been in the national news for more than a decade, the changing face of education is beginning to feel unsettling for some people. What and how we teach is changing to meet the demands of a changing world. The reason for eliminating the Kindergarten show is simple. We are responsible for preparing children for college and career .…

Feel-Bad Education The Cult of Rigor and the Loss of Joy  by: Alfie Kohn I’m appearing to accept an odious premise—namely, that joy must be justified as a means to the end of better academic performance.

And what do you mean by “student achievement?”

THERE IS HOPE

During the 2014-2015 school year, we sent over 120 middle school and high school students for mental health assessments; these include assessments for anxiety, depression and suicidal ideations. These were not drug and alcohol screenings; these screenings were additional. When 68 percent of high school Honors and AP students state that they are stressed “always or most of the time,” the balance is simply not there. The perpetual achievement machine continues to demand higher scores and greater success each passing year. Such pressure is like a giant “ﬂywheel” that keeps turning and gathering speed. Unfortunately, perspective seems to be gone as we keep pushing the education system to the point where we – and, I mean the collective we (parents, teachers, an students) -- have created a system where learning takes a back-seat to academic success. The grade has become the end point, not the learning.
