Redesigning Education

EDUCATION CONNECTION’s Center for 21st Century Skills believes the key to developing a generation of successful American innovators is to encourage the convergence of art, business, creativity, innovation, engineering, and science. According to U.S. Rep. Chris Murphy, “We’re at, really, a pivotal moment in the history of American education and the question is whether we learn from the developments that are happening all around the world as nations are competing with us that never competed before.” Educating our youth to be thoughtful, ethical, and confident global citizens is critical to maintaining our nation’s preeminence in the global marketplace. Our organization is dedicated to creating opportunities for students to grow and thrive in all aspects of their school, life, and work.
