On Learning

On Learning explores what school is—and what it could become. This blog raises questions, challenges assumptions, and examines the spaces where learning feels alive… and where it doesn’t.

After more than forty years in education, I remain curious about why learning so often becomes routine in a world overflowing with knowledge. If information is everywhere, what is school for? Why don’t we rely more consistently on what research tells us about how students learn—and why do we so often underestimate the boundless potential of every learner?

On Learning is an invitation to rethink school, ground practice in research, and design learning experiences that honor curiosity, purpose, and the infinite capacity of human learning.

Onward. On learning…
