As the world’s knowledge systems and economic systems transform, education must transform. The revolution in our schools is the shift from students as consumers and repeaters of knowledge to students as builders and creators of knowledge, and the shift from teachers as dispensers of knowledge to teachers as inventive enablers of learning.

The panel will expand on the ideas of Maker Culture and Pedagogical Entrepreneurialism, how educators can discover and promote new ways of engaging students in a new form of curriculum.

  • Randy Canterbury, Senior Associate Dean for Education, U.Va. School of Medicine
