Most rules that you think are written in stone are just societal. You can change the game and really reach for the stars and make the world a better place.
If you focus on the single question of who knows best what students need in the workforce, it’s the people already in the workforce. Why not give industry a voice?
What I see is democratizing education will change everything.
