The level of interest in bringing entrepreneurial studies to other schools is, at times, overwhelming

I really enjoy speaking to people about the changes and shifts taking place in education today.  There are a host of early adopters out there doristrying and succeeding at bringing contemporary learning ideas more suitable for today’s world.
Doris Korda is one of them.
Doris is the associate head at Hawken School in Ohio, USA. She leads the Hawken Entrepreneurial Studies program designed to change how students think, solve problems  and learn.
After a quick overview, we start out talking a lot about a tea shop and how it becomes a teachable and scaffolding moment for students. It makes more sense once you hear about it.
Doris also shares her incredible outreach efforts as she continues to share and spread how to develop entrepreneurial studies in any school.
Doris is a featured speaker at the Global Education Leadership Summit in Bangkok this coming April.  For more information, head to the summit website: GELS.Asia
