Timeless Learning: How Imagination, Observation, and Zero-Based
Thinking Change Schools
Reinvent public schools with proven,
innovative practices
“Our homes, communities, and the world itself need the natural assets our children bring with them as learners,and which they often lose over time on the assembly line that pervades most ofthe public education system today. We see no actions as more important in school than developing, supporting, and reinforcing children’s sense of agency,the value of their voices, and their potential to influence their own communities. In Timeless Learning Pam Moran, along with co-authors Chief Technology Officer Ira Socol and Lab Schools Principal Chad Ratliff, demonstrate how you can implement innovative practices that have shown remarkable success.”
