Date: Wednesday, June 20, 2012
Time: 6:00 - 8:30 p.m.
Place: Aldrich 112, HBS
We are delighted to present
an evening with Tony Wagner, Innovation Education Fellow at the Technology and
Entrepreneurship Center at Harvard and the founder and co-director of the
Change Leadership Group at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
Tony
consults widely to schools, districts, and foundations around the country and
internationally. Tony is also a frequent speaker at national and international
conferences and a widely published author.
His work
includes numerous articles and five books. Tony’s latest, Creating Innovators:
The Making of Young People Who Will Change The World, has just been published
by Simon & Schuster. Click on the book image
for a video description of the book.
Tony’s recent book, "The Global Achievement
Gap: Why Even Our Best Schools Don’t Teach the New Survival Skills Our Children
Need—and What We Can do About It", has been a best seller and is being translated
into Chinese.
Tom Friedman
writes: “Tony Wagner, the
Harvard-based education expert and author of “The Global Achievement Gap,”
explains it this way: There are three basic skills that students need if they
want to thrive in a knowledge economy: the ability to do critical thinking and
problem-solving; the ability to communicate effectively; and the ability to
collaborate."
If you are interested in education and / or innovation, you will find this program to be of interest! All are invited.
