The problem with education reform is that we keep attempting to change surface level systems and hoping for deep systemic change as a result. If you’ve been involved in education for any amount of time, you begin to see a pattern emerge. That education should be rigorous. We have to change our minds.

Perhaps the most disheartening outcome of the systematization of education is the way that it dehumanizes classrooms.
