Through interactive discussion, we will examine how schools have changed during our lifetimes. We will survey the goals of schools in Eastern Connecticut, what educational statistics tell us about regional schools, and how societal change has influenced learning and teaching. Augmented Imagination (AI), changing demographics and teacher certification regulations, and societal attitudes to schools will lead to our predictions on the future of education.David Stoloff, Education Department, ECSU
