Our work is shaping how people teach, learn, and lead in schools and colleges as well as in after-school programs, high-tech companies, and international organizations. The HGSE community is pushing the frontiers of education, and the effects of our entrepreneurship are improving the world.

Great message and information. So helpful for people who keep trying to fit in to the "average" and can't do it. There is hope! My wife uses this idea as she teaches her first graders. We need more colleges, business owners, and team leaders to get this, too. Thanks, Todd.
' ... BUT WE CAN ' T DO IT ON AVERAGE ' . this is great .
"The average represented nobody." Sho'-nuf; nuf'-said.
“The average represented nobody.” 💯
How does this scale?
Wasn't this same talk given about spaghetti sauce some ten years ago?
The mean is not a real value. The same is true for 'the average person'. We are all outliers on countless variables.
As usual, lots of idealistic rhetoric, but very little actionable advice or practical examples as to how teachers with classes of 30+ students make these concepts a working reality in their day to day.

And until the professors in fancy depts of Ed, like Harvard, Columbia, etc., start recommending smaller class sizes and folks become willing to pay for them, public school teachers will simply struggle valiantly to stay afloat, instead of unlocking the potential of their students. (And, of course, our society will remain inequitable: achieving the American Dream today necessitates access to quality, well-resourced education that starts as when children are as young as 2.)
