Design Principles for Liberatory Education

6 credits · Graduate

Public school systems are organized not by best practice, but by historical evolution. In this course, we ask a simple question, "What if we instead designed school systems with the needs of students furthest from opportunity?" We begin by charting the existing landscape within complex school systems. Through our inquiry, we identify organizational factors that can be leveraged to reshape these existing systems to produce student outcomes that are in line with students' full potential.
