Synopsis:
What can schools do differently to reach more students? What can educators do to address an urgent need to provide meaningful, memorable and fulfilling learning experiences? By viewing curriculum through a lens of ‘situated responsibility’, it is possible to engage students in authentic and purpose-based learning. This book is about expanding the student identity to include that of becoming service providers, injustice responders, action researchers, designers, apprentices and teachers. This book features a collection of international stories written by students and their advisors who care deeply about their education and supporting others. There is much we can do.
