Now imagine you are a teacher or a parent trying to prepare students for that world — a world that is exciting, complex and unfamiliar.

Join us for the Van Andel Institute Public Lecture Series: A Focus on Education in America on Dec. 12, 2019. Hear from educators who are creating classrooms where curiosity, creativity and critical thinking thrive, and developing new ways to prepare students for a world that doesn’t exist yet. In this lecture, we will explore the state of education in our society and how
Van Andel Institute is transforming education to inspire the next generation of problem solvers. You will also have the opportunity to learn about Common Core State Standards, standards-based grading practices, project-based learning, and other influences on today’s schools.
