Harvard's
Project Zero Classroom "Our rapidly changing world
presents profound challenges for today's educators.
How best to prepare young people for a future that
is hard to imagine? How to create learning experiences
that are engaging and exciting for children? How to
teach for the kind of deep understanding and thought
that allows people to solve complex problems and do
work that is both excellent and innovative? How to
encourage our students to fall in love with learning?
The Project Zero Classroom is designed to help practicing
pre-K through Grade 12 educators create classrooms,
instructional materials, and out-of-school learning
environments that address these challenges."
