“We need to create something new for today and how the world is quickly changing.  I'm coming in saying, ‘No, wait, classrooms don't exist. Chalkboards don't exist, desks don't exist.’ When you've been in education for a long time, it's hard to break that mindset. And so they tend to just default to innovating the existing instead of wiping the slate clean and saying, ‘If we were creating school for the first time today and you had never seen a classroom, you had never seen anything that existed today, how would you do it? What would you create that meets students with today's world?’ And that's designed to innovate itself.”

-Heidi DeCoux 

 

“I would say the one thing that we know for certain throughout history is that the only real progress has come from the Ruckus Makers. So if not you, who, and if not now, then when.”

Why do students struggle? I'd argue that they lack access to quality instruction, but think about it. That's totally out of their control. What if there was something we could teach kids there was something within their control that would help them be successful in every class? It's not a magic pill or a figment of your imagination. 

 

When students internalize Executive Functioning Skills they succeed. 

Check out the new self-paced online course brought to you by OB that shows teachers how to equip their students with executive functioning skills.
