Education Innovation Summit 2012 kicks off at Arizona State University. “Bringing together the greatest education innovators, thinkers and investors” is critical at a time when the competitiveness of U.S. students is nowhere near where it should and can be.
Last year’s keynote address hit the nail on the head and made clear that educational success is the key to national success, and that educational success will “be driven forward mostly through innovation and creativity.”
Joel Klien, former Chancellor of New York City Public Schools, stressed that “If we don’t fix our schools, the American Dream will become the American Memory.”
