Commissioner Dwight Jones

A Strategy for Sustainable Education Reform
In his new book, Education Unbound: The Practice and Promise of Greenfield Schooling, Rick Hess maps out a "greenfield" approach to schooling that seeks to create conditions where outstanding teaching and learning can flourish. Greenfield schooling requires scrubbing away our assumptions about districts, schoolhouses, teacher training, and other familiar arrangements, so we might use resources, talent, and technology to support excellent teaching and effective learning in smarter, better ways.
