Empowering Young Learners

I'm really please with this short video. if you watch only one thing on heppell.tv, watch this...

"The Mobile Learning Institute's Film Series “A 21st Century Education” profiles individuals who embrace and defend fresh approaches to learning and who confront the urgent social challenges that are part of a 21st century experience. “A 21st Century Education” compiles in short film format, the best ideas around school reform. The series is meant to start, extend, or nudge the conversation about how to make change in education happen."

Stephen Heppell: Empowering Young Learners
In this film, Heppell makes his way through London, describing his vision for schools, meeting with kids at the Be Very Afraid conference, and exploring ideas for classroom design in a technology pilot school in Teddington
